And it’s free too! So, we all know a good camera does not make a person a good photographer – in the same way, a good pan does not make anyone a good chef, you still need to inject a bit of your skill and style to get a great photo (or indeed a great … Continue Reading
These are easy mistakes to make, especially if you’re not familiar with London but hopefully, this post should help you avoid potentially making these common sightseeing mistakes. This is a bit of a light-hearted post and not mean to poke fun at anyone who genuinely gets/got confused by any of the sights below – instead. … Continue Reading
We arrived in Iceland to find that there was a storm warning (which we chose to ignore) but the next day, we woke up to find a couple of distressing emails. Activities we had booked for the weekend had all been cancelled due to the storm! Turns out, the storm was going to be one … Continue Reading
This is the 2nd part of this post if you missed part 1; catch it here. Okay, so where were we? Right, we were still at the Laugarvatn Fontana, where I’d made the decision to cool off by jumping into the freezing river. It’s a very shallow river by the way but that notwithstanding, it … Continue Reading
By now you already know we’ve spent the last week in Iceland, and boy was it a fun and rather action-packed week. Now, this is the first part of a two-part post. It’s split into two parts as there are way too many photos to fit into one post. The second post is available immediately over … Continue Reading
New You is a buzzing city to explore! It’s filled with so many things to do and the best New York attractions that are dotted all across the big smoke. That being said, with all these attractions, it can be tough to whittle down a manageable list that you can explore during your visit. It … Continue Reading
And no, I don’t mean TV programmes! I mean actually official schemes run by different countries to help people come to their countries to experience it in all its glory and fullness. 1.) United Kingdom The Tier 5 Youth Mobility programme. Open to people from a limited set of countries between the age of 18 … Continue Reading
It perhaps comes as no surprise that I’m a huge fan of blogging and not just the writing side of things but reading blogs too. I think I’d go as far as saying that I spend more time reading blogs than I do writing them. I’ve done posts on why you should start a blog … Continue Reading
One of the many joys of a trip to Iceland is learning to (or at least trying to) pronounce Icelandic names and perhaps, one of the more fun ones to try to pronounce is the Eyjafjallajökull volcano… …but more on that later. The first time I saw the Northern Lights was by no means unplanned. The … Continue Reading
The best part about Iceland is that all these epic natural wonders are all free to explore. You see, as long as you can get to where they are (by car, bus or whatever mode of transportation you have), you can pop in to see them without paying a penny. First up, our day started … Continue Reading
Okay, I finally got around to looking through the Palermo photos (which I have to admit, I wasn’t looking forward to editing after all the rain we had that weekend) but it looks like quite a few of them turned out okay. Pheeeew! The good thing about having the rain was that it made it … Continue Reading
Before we get started though (here’s a heads up), you need one thing if you’re gonna do it this way – flexibility. (You’ll see why later). I’m not talking about flexibility in the sense of being able to do whatever you want, whenever you want (let’s face it, most of us have work or lifestyle schedules which … Continue Reading
**Update: This experience has now ended in London. This weekend we got to go check out Tongue Twister in London. Anyway, we rock up to the venue – which is the most colourful, Willy Wonka-esque set up in London and as soon as I saw, I instantly started getting excited. I’m a huge fan of anything … Continue Reading
