Travelling and photography go hand in hand. It is not often these days that I don’t go anywhere without a camera (or my phone). The perks of modern technology eh! Whereas rewind to 1998 when I went on a school trip to London, with a hand written journal and two disposable cameras with 27 shots in each. Not knowing what I had captured until I could have the...
Going to Malta and not visiting Gozo is like going to New York City and not visiting Brooklyn. It is quite a trek to get there granted, especially if you go by public transport. However, it is just beautiful. It has Instagramable doors, perfect little bays to swim in and a more chilled vibe than that of the larger Island of Malta. Getting to Gozo To get to the island...
Before travelling to Malta, we considered and reconsidered hiring a car vs public transport. On a previous trip to the Balkans, we hired a car. It was amazing – we had so much flexiblity and saw so much too. However, it was expensive. When planning our trip, I read up on other blogs, as well as took advice from family and friends who had travelled there. In the...
For a stretch of land of relatively small size, the British Isles host some of the world’s most breathtaking scenic routes. Many will be familiar with the epically long trips found in larger countries, but few countries have as diverse and breathtaking scenic routes as the UK. There’s plenty of it, too; Britain hosts 200,000 miles of road with the majority of that...
Bohol is a small island located east of Cebu in the Philippines. You can fly into Cebu, which is proabably the cheapest option, or you can fly directly into Bohol to Tagbilaran City.

Traveling with your canine best friend can be an enjoyable and unforgettable trip if you plan accordingly. You don’t want to end up in a town where dogs aren’t allowed anywhere. Most hotels, cafes, and beaches aren’t dog-friendly. Even dog parks can be hard to find in a place that doesn’t value their canine citizens. Take a trip with your dog...
Though there are plenty of ways to travel, there’s something about being out on the open road that makes the experience more special. Often regarded as something suited for families, road trips can actually be a great way for individuals of any age to see sights unknown and create adventure. If this is your first time hitting the road, you should know that the...
Imagine driving up a rocky mountain path, with very little road signs or markings. Then all of a sudden, the road comes to an end, and you are forced onto another unfinished road, with a digger actively digging up the road metres away from you. Welcome to driving in the Balkans Of course it is not all that scary. There are serene bays, winding roads, majestic...

As per the recent trend, people are craving for more cultural and authentic travel experiences. If you are one of them, then you can add Thailand as your next destination for...
Viewing a city on foot, or by bike are two of the best ways to see a city. In the past I have cycled around London and Melbourne. I have also walked around hundreds of other cities, armed with a map and a bottle of water. Although bus tours are easier on the legs, I find they are too touristic, and don’t offer the same experience. I went on a bus tour in...
