This week I took a trip with some friends to Bondi Beach to stroll along the coastal path that runs all the way between Bondi and Coogee beaches, about a 3 and a half hour walk (or 8.8km). Nicknamed ‘Sydney’s Best Coastal Walk‘ for a reason, this is a great way to spend a morning, … More Photo Of The Week: Sculpture By The Sea
Approximately a year ago I wrote a post all about the perfect gadgetry gifts for your travelling loved one and now, in the lead up to Christmas (yes I’m aware that it’s only just November, but that Christmassy feeling is once again approaching), I’ve been thinking a lot about my gadgets and the things I … More Gadgets I Don’t Ever Travel Without
This is something new that I’m going to be doing at the end of every month – a summary of my monthly outgoings to give you an idea of how much this crazy travelling lifestyle really costs. When I first started travelling it was hard to find many examples or ideas of how much money … More Monthly Spending Summary: October ’13
I’ve been thinking about this a lot recently, about how this long term travelling lifestyle can affect all the old friendships you’ve left behind at home. Friends who still mean the absolute world to you and who probably know you better than anyone else – they are the ones you grew up with, through primary … More Does Travelling Mean The End For Old Friendships?

But it is also so much more. Travel is excitement, an adventure of the world and … More Finding The Adventure…In Iceland
Since meeting this girl way back on June 17th, 2011, my life hasn’t been the same. Rosa and I have pretty much spent every single day together for over 2 years, (minus the 3 months I lived in France this year) and I can’t imagine the rest of my life without her. We’ve spent 3 … More Photo Of The Week: Me And My BFF
And so it begins. Again. That’s right. Tomorrow morning I’m off to New York City for the beginning of my next (and this time seemingly indefinite) adventure. I’ll be living and working at Camp Sloane YMCA in Connecticut until mid September, when I’ll be boarding a very long flight to Sydney. And then Australia is … More Here It Goes Again
I’ve done it before, and I’m sure I’ll do it again, but having only 24 hours to explore any city is always a bit crazy, let alone in a city like Amsterdam! I took the 45 minute flight over to the Netherlands last week for a whirlwind visit to the city that was hosting the … More 24 Hours in Amsterdam
So I finally did it…I finally booked my flight from Los Angeles to Sydney for September! It’s actually happening – my year (or more) in Oz is happening and I am too excited! I’m flying from LA because I’ll be spending the summer in the USA working at Camp Sloane in Connecticut and then in … More Photo Of The Week: Making Plans
A couple of weeks ago I was very flattered to be awarded a Liebster award by the lovely Laura over at Laura The Explorer, and of course, me being me, and in the midst of living in France and playing in the snow when my family came to visit, I kept putting it off. Until … More My Liebster Award
