I need some advice! As part of my holidays anywhere, one of the things I enjoy the most is trying out local food! I’m such a foodie at heart and I genuinely get excited once I know there’s food involved in a trip anywhere. That is of course until I came across the Durian Fruit. … Continue Reading
Disclaimer: This trip to Calico was another impromptu stop on the trip (albeit a rather nice one)! On the drive to Hollywood after 3 days in Las Vegas (which was so much fun but more of that in another post soon), my friends and I figure we might as well break up the journey with a stop … Continue Reading

All you have to do is retweet this tweet (also available below) and you’re in with a chance of owning this watch (worth £219!). Simple right? You best get … Continue Reading
The Northern Lights probably need no introduction. That being said, finding the best places to see the Northern Lights is a totally different matter! The images of them are so iconic and they are a natural wonder that is even more amazing to see in real life. Seeing them in person is an experience I … Continue Reading
I’m a sucker for beaches – I love the smell, the relaxing sounds of the crashing waves, the sunshine, relaxing with drinks on them… Darn! Got that silly Piña colada song stuck in my head now! “If you like Piña Coladas…” The thought of beaches and this weekend got me thinking about what comes naturally with them … Continue Reading
Over the years, when the Facebook travel photo albums start to pop up, I constantly get asked by my friends how I can afford to do as much travelling as I do – my answer “How can you afford not to?!” – JUST KIDDING! 🙂 I typically explain how I got this amazing deal on my travel … Continue Reading
I’m in true love/lust/infatuation with this burger! It’s so strange as it’s so unexpected. Okay, so living in Singapore – it seems a big disingenuous to be eating a burger when there’s so much delicious local cuisine to try but in all fairness, I’ve actually done quite a bit of that since I’ve been here … Continue Reading
Okay, another exaggeration here (what’s with me and hyperbole today???) but I’m so excited so it is important dammit! Haha! 🙂 A couple of weeks ago, while exploring Singapore, I mentioned going to the Marina Bay Sands which is amazing and chok-a-block of expensive stores, nice restaurants and general tourist distractions. Anyway, one of the … Continue Reading
Okay, that may be something of an exaggeration (easily fixed by the addition of a conjunction)… Budapest as a city not only has amazing sights to see but also has some pretty good food! As a tourist one of the best parts about visiting Budapest is that the cost of living is a lot cheaper … Continue Reading
The challenge: You’re breezing through New York for one night and need to catch a flight to London the very next day. Can you see all the major sights and get a good feel for New York in the next 24 hours? This is actually a real-life scenario we faced a while back and essentially … Continue Reading
1.) Take the Thames Clipper (boat) up River Thames This is way cheaper than the river cruises and a great way to see a lot of sights across the Thames in London. Of course, it doesn’t come with a tour guide talking to you about what you’re seeing but that may not be a bad … Continue Reading
I finish school this year and hopefully will have the opportunity to travel next year! I am planning to go to France and England for a month and if I have enough time maybe Germany or Scotland. I was just wondering if you could give me some tips on how much I should … Continue Reading
Part Deux is here! Swiftly flying in following Numero Uno! As per my previous post with the view from The Empire State Building, here’s the corresponding view from The Rockefeller Center. I won’t waste your time on any more waffle. You know the drill! 🙂 Now that you have both, you can fully decide and let … Continue Reading
This is a fairly quick post and is the first of two posts! The next one will follow very shortly. Effectively, as you can see from the photos at the top of the Eiffel Tower, I love cityscape photos; especially ones taken at dusk. I’ve been fortunate enough to have been at the top of … Continue Reading
