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 […]
Renowned for its many stunning natural wonders and surreal landscapes, Iceland is an experience like no other. And in the wintertime, it’s just magic. A true winter wonderland that with leave you in awe of mother nature, and wanting to stay forever. Widely known as ‘The Land of Fire and Ice’ with its stunning scenery […]
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 […]
Argentina Bus Adventures. To the innocent eye, this lovely green coach (pictured) might look somewhat like a luxury set of wheels, somewhere along the way from Buenos Aires to Bariloche, Patagonia. Truth be told, this is partially correct. It’s indeed, ‘somewhere along the way’ between the east and west coasts of Argentina. In the […]
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. […]
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 […]
There’s no question that being able to travel the world freely, to your little hearts content is a gift. To wake up each morning and have 24 hours of new opportunities, any freakin’ where in the world you feel like, is pretty damn cool. It’s something that we’ve worked hard towards, and it’s something that […]
I read an article recently that spoke about living your best life. It encouraged thought and reflection of the now, raised questions in recognising and achieving our true potential, and acknowledged that our comparing to others and their journeys, as well the fear of failing, is often the reason that holds us back from our […]
My boyfriend and I recently cycled the length of the UK. From the southern most point in England to the northern most tip of Scotland, we pedalled some 1,400 kilometres in 11 days across beautiful countryside, through all that mother nature threw at us. Firstly, to any motorist who drives past a cyclist (and provides […]
1400 kilometres cycled, 12,534 metres of elevation gained, stunning views and countless chocolate (cough… energy) bars consumed. From the southern most point in England to the northern tip of Scotland, what a ride! The infamous Lands End to John O’Groats (LEJOG) cycle route is something that has sat in the back of my mind for […]
