Gluten Free Amsterdam

The first stop on our Northern Lights Rally (a 5000 mile drive from Scotland to Estonia) was Amsterdam. As we arrived early on the ferry from Newcastle we had the whole day to spend with our Dutch friends and they were an extremely helpful source for finding out where I could buy gluten free food.

Gluten Free Aer Lingus

I am flying to New York with Aer Lingus in May. We finally booked our flights yesterday after debating who to fly with and chose Aer Lingus for a few reasons: We don’t have to back track to London or Amsterdam, flight times are good and decently priced, we have flown with them before and enjoyed the flights

Gluten Free Reykjavik

I spent a fantastic few days in Reykjavik this winter and didn’t have any problems finding lots of gluten free things to eat 🙂 The hotel we were staying at provided breakfast but it consisted, as I had predicted, of bread, ham and cheese slices, corn flakes and muesli so nothing that I would be
