A Conversation to Drive Urgent Change Against Fast-Fashion from the Streets of Hoi An, Vietnam. Having spent the best part of (almost) 10 years working amid the fashion industry, I’ve been fortunate to work alongside some incredible teams whilst being exposed to the many facets of this industry. From international wholesale sales, to the other […]
For 8 months my boyfriend and I have been travelling the world. Its been full and fun, a huge learning curve and on the whole, nothing short of a dream. And despite the many ‘gram’ worthy experiences and stunning locales, it most definitely hasn’t always been easy. Hand in hand with the world at our […]
For those who are chasing a picturesque hike that’s somewhat off the beaten track (yet is (almost) as impressive as the infamous Laguna de los Tres), then the Loma del Pliegue Tumbado trail is for you. With access from the west of El Chaltén, it’s a 20 kilometre return trek and takes a suggested 4 […]
With February 14 upon us already, this year is f.l.y.i.n.g on by! And what better excuse to spoil our loved ones (or ourselves) with a little sumptin’ sumptin’ this Valentine’s Day to show our appreciation. Because we need a marked day of the year to do so after all… And so, if you’re anything like […]
Truth be told, I’ve never hitch-hiked in my life. Until now in South America (sorry mum!). Like most children from a young age, my sisters and I were drilled with the ‘never get into cars with strangers’ spiel. And for many years those words were etched into my mind. Until of course Uber arrived, and […]
For two weeks now, we’ve been living off-the-grid, as we take part in our first volunteer project with ‘workaway.com’. The platform enables travellers to visit people’s homes and/or organisation’s and volunteer an agreed workload (often 5 hours’ p/day, p/week) in exchange for meals and accommodation. Really, it’s a win:win situation; enabling people to experience local […]
As I write this entry, I’m sitting around the fire pit in this little slice of paradise, by myself waiting for the others to wake up. It’s almost 9am, the water is (hopefully) not too far from boiling, because.. coffee, and the wind is a little cold on my back. This has been the morning’s […]
There is a famous quote by Ibn Battuta, ‘Traveling – it makes you speechless and then turns you into a storyteller’. To travel the world is a privilege. In a perfect world, (after everyone is fed and watered of course), my wish would be that all the souls on Earth had access to this opportunity. […]
With the festive season upon us, many set out on new adventures and holiday travels, escaping the tiresome 9-5 life for the outdoors. With cold beers and Christmas cake mandatory, you might ask, – how do we counteract the ever-elusive donut scale from tipping the weights to the wrong side? With this burden shadowing over our holiday […]
Nestled amongst the bustle of Legerova Street, – a long stretch of road that connects the outskirts of Prague city with the old town and boasts a series of hotels, bars and eateries, lies the most delectable vegetarian culinary experience. Of my life. This little gem is called Etnosvet and it’s an absolute ‘must’ experience […]
