Photo Of The Week: Dolphins on Koh Phi Phi

December 18, 2011

This was honestly one of the best days on this trip so far. We took a tour boat around some famous places off the coast of Koh Phi Phi, including Monkey Island, Phi Ley Lagoon and the incredible Maya Bay (the location of the film ‘The Beach’). But the most spectacular part of the day … More Photo Of The Week: Dolphins on Koh Phi Phi

Photo Of The Week: Mui Ne Fairy Stream

December 4, 2011

This week we stayed in one of my favorite places so far on the trip…Mui Ne on the southern coast of Vietnam. It was absolutely beautiful, sunny and warm, and on particular day we headed out in a jeep on a tour of the town and its surrounding areas, including this Fairy Stream, surrounded by … More Photo Of The Week: Mui Ne Fairy Stream

Photo Of The Week: Tubing In Vang Vieng

November 20, 2011

This week we found ourselves in Vang Vieng, seemingly party capital of Laos. One of the best things you can do in VV is go tubing on the river…there are loads of bars along the way, all trying to entice you with their special deals. But we fancied something a little more laid back, so … More Photo Of The Week: Tubing In Vang Vieng

Photo Of The Week: Tigers in Chiang Mai

November 13, 2011

This week has been a great one for seeing and experiencing new things, thing that I never thought I would, including visiting various incredible temples around Chiang Mai. But my favorite thing we did over the last few days was by far going to Tiger Kingdom and playing with these tiger cubs…they were so adorable, … More Photo Of The Week: Tigers in Chiang Mai

Photo Of The Week: The Start of Everything

November 6, 2011

So here we are. In Bangkok. In actual Thailand. For real. It’s insane that this trip has finally started, after all the weeks and months and years of planning, I have really left the UK for a WHOLE YEAR. And it feels so good, like freedom and excitement and adventure all rolled into one big … More Photo Of The Week: The Start of Everything

Photo Of The Week: Together Again

October 30, 2011

This weekend I went back down to my old uni town of Falmouth, in Cornwall, to visit my friend Anna who’s still studying there. What Anna didn’t know though, was that I was secretly bringing three of our other bestest friends down with me…best. surprise. ever. We had an awesome weekend, just chilling and catching … More Photo Of The Week: Together Again

Photo Of The Week: Iceland’s Strokkur Geyser

October 23, 2011

This picture dates back to 2005 when I went on a school trip to Iceland – the Strokkur geyser is one part of that trip that really sticks in my mind, seeing all that water shoot up15-20m in to the air every 8 minutes or so was just incredible.

Photo Of The Week: All Of A Sudden I Miss Everyone

October 16, 2011

With only three weeks until I head off on my big adventure around the world, I’ve been thinking a lot about the people I’ll be leaving behind, or people that I haven’t seen in a while. This photo is from a night in NYC this past summer, with two of the bestest friends I could … More Photo Of The Week: All Of A Sudden I Miss Everyone

Photo Of The Week: The Northern Lights

October 9, 2011

Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) in Iceland In October 2005 I went on a school trip to Iceland, one of the most incredible places I’ve ever visited. I actually think that it was this trip that sparked the love of travel in me…for the first time I really felt and understood that freedom and opportunity that … More Photo Of The Week: The Northern Lights

Photo Of The Week: Niagara Falls

October 2, 2011

The Falls One of our first major sightseeing stops this summer was, of course, Niagara Falls, one of the Wonders of the World. And oh boy, did it live up to expectations. The sheer amount of water careering over those clifftops was just incredible, let alone the speed at which it fell and the sound … More Photo Of The Week: Niagara Falls
