My travel plans are finally starting to come together. I’ve been emailing Chris (of Backpacker Banter and STA Travel) back and forth over the last week, getting all my dates and plans sorted, trying to decide what to do and where to go.

To me this photograph represents one of my best ever days, hanging out with my mates on a beach as the summer drew to a close. The seven of us went to Poldhu Cove Beach for a BBQ and ended up camping out that night…it was absolutely freezing! But it was also one of those … More Photo Of The Week: The End Of Summer
I know it sounds kind of bad, and maybe a little unethical, but this is something I’ve been thinking about for a while…I want to find a way of using this blog to not only express myself and (hopefully) provide an insight into my life and my travels but also to make some money and … More How To Make Money From Your Travel Blog
