I can’t believe the trip of a lifetime has come and gone already. I have struggled with how to write this blog post. Where do you even begin with such a life-changing, awe-inspiring trip? I don’t want to just tell you what we did - my husband will be uploading YouTube videos and you can… Continue reading Japan Trip Reflection – cultural differences and the beauty of Japanese life

Is travelling for everyone?
I have agonised over this for a long time. I’m 28 and I’ve visited only 10 countries in my lifetime. Obviously, I’ve visited some more than once, but I think my count is just 10. By today’s standards, that’s low. My generation and younger are the TRAVELLERS! They have backpacked across southeast Asia and interrailed… Continue reading Is travelling for everyone?

Our Trip to Portugal: Part One
We have just come back from Portugal, and I for one had a great time - to say the least. It was the best holiday I've ever been on, full of so much than the basics. It wasn't just chillin' on the beach. It wasn't just sightseeing. It wasn't all adrenaline and thrill-seeking, either. It… Continue reading Our Trip to Portugal: Part One

That was true at the time, but… Continue reading Africa and Updates on Plans
