Firstly, I hope everyone has had a spectacular Christmas! This week I jetted off on my final trip of 2014 to Mauritius with my family for a Christmas of fun in the sun. It’s the 4th time I’ve been here for Christmas and I absolutely love it. I’m a big fan of spending all day … More Photo of the Week: Sun, Sea and Wakeboarding
I know, I know, I haven’t done a photo of the week for a while now, mostly because to be honest, not that much has been going on, and I’m kind of shocked when I look at my phone and realise that I’ve only taken about 10 photos in the last month…terrible! But anyway, I’ve … More Photo Of The Week: It’s Christmas!
This week was, of course, Christmas! And I flew half way across the world from Sydney to Mauritius (via Perth) to spend the week with my family, whom I hadn’t seen for over 7 months! We have spent a blissful 7 days catching up, playing in the pool, lying on the beach, tanning (and burning), … More Photo Of The Week: Nice Knees On The Beach
As most of you will know from my recent Photo of the Week post, I spent my Christmas holiday in glorious Mauritius with the fam, where we spent our days playing in the pool, soaking up some much needed sunshine and generally having a grand old time. We flew out there on the night of … More Christmas In Search Of Sunnier Climes
Just a quick note to say Merry Christmas to you all! It’s been an incredible year, full of travels and adventures in places new and old, and I really couldn’t have wanted for anything more.

We all know someone who loves to travel, and most of those travellers are quite frugal people who are used to living on a shoestring budget. So Christmas is always a special time for those people (and I speak as someone who IS one of those people)…it is a time when they can make a … More 10 Perfect Christmas Gifts For The Ultimate Traveller
So I’ve been home for exactly two months now (I know…seriously?!) and while it’s great to be back and see all my friends and spend time with my family, I’m still having a serious case of the post-travel blues. This, combined with the fact that I am yet to find a full time job, has … More Current Plans: My Place In The World
Let me just start by saying that I love Melbourne. No, seriously, it has to be by far one of my favorite cities I’ve ever been to. It has everything I could ever want…shops, bars, restaurants, museums, cafes, cinemas, open spaces, a beach, and even a free tram service! Rosa and I arrived last Thursday … More Exploring Melbourne
Last year, just before Christmas (2009), I went to the Eden Project with some friends to go ice skating and generally wander around. I’d never been before, even after living in Cornwall for 3 years, so was curious to see what all the fuss was about…I think it definitely lived up to the hype. It … More Photo Of The Week: The Eden Project, Cornwall
For Christmas I went to Mauritius with my (very extended) family…that is, my dad, my elder sister, my two younger half-sisters, my ex-stepmum, her new boyfriend, and their two-year-old (whom I consider my sister). See, I told you it was complicated.
