It’s been a while since I’ve done a photo diary post. Granted – almost all blog posts with photos in it are a photo diary post of some sort but I haven’t done one like that solely focused on the photos. I love to talk (sometimes too much) so even though I should, there’s no … Continue Reading
First off, this is part 1 of the post as there are too many photos to fit in one post so do settle down with a good cuppa tea… actually, scratch that! Chuck that tea down the sink and get yourself a huge vat of mulled wine instead (go on – it’s Christmas time… N.B.: I … Continue Reading
Swiftly following the morning’s sailing/kayaking and lunch-time gluttony (if you missed that – check out part 1 of this post – which has been split to two parts due to having lots of photos), my friends and I (who must have put on quite a few pounds from lunch alone) headed off to the next … Continue Reading
When I put up a “photo diary” I usually try to focus on saying less and “letting the photos do the talking” but before you know it, I end up blabbering away! This time however I’m going to try to be better and shut up from the get-go. I do feel like I need to … Continue Reading
After an amazing time exploring the islands in Phang Nga Bay (see posts here and here), it was fair to say that by the time we got back to the mainland, we were knackered! It was quite surprising because we didn’t actually feel tired until we got to the hotel and even though we planned … Continue Reading
I’m not a huge fan of botanical gardens. It’s not that they’re not nice/pretty/colourful/fragrant enough or anything of the sort. I just don’t know that much about flowers. Sure, I know how to identify the usual suspects – roses, orchids, lilies and the like but beyond that, I’m absolutely clueless. Like if you asked me … Continue Reading
Thailand is one of my favourite countries I’ve had the fortune of travelling to. It really surprised me how much I loved it as my expectations were so different from the reality of being there. Now, the Mainstream media likes to portray Thailand as a place to go partying and yes, sometimes the focus is … Continue Reading
Whilst visiting Hong Kong, we were trying to decide what to do (after a couple of days exploring the sights) and one of the things that came up was visiting the nearby country of Macau! Now while I can’t remember what the other option was, visiting Macau won clearly by a long mile so we … Continue Reading
The general theme? Random photos of places, things and people I saw while walking around in Hong Kong. Hong Kong is such a vibrant and chaotic city and in that sense rivals any other global city and yet, within all this hustle and bustle, you can still manage to find a calm little oasis of … Continue Reading
After living in Singapore for 6-months, we’ve come to know the city (and country) pretty well. It’s one of my favourite places to visit in Asia. This is all mainly due to the epic things to do in Singapore. It’s one of those cities that can appeal to everyone. Now, you might be thinking that … Continue Reading
UNESCO World Heritage sites are an unequivocal stamp of prestige and honour on any landmark or tourist attraction. The criteria for being awarded this honour is very stringent. And, rightly so, as these UNESCO World Heritage sites are of cultural and/or physical significance and the instant this designation is placed on a site, it arguably … Continue Reading
Singapore has a poor reputation when it comes to beaches. For all the flash and pomp the city-state has, with its towering steel and glass towers, beautiful people and amazing food (to mention but a few), it is notorious for having no ‘really nice’ beaches. There’s perhaps one beach of note in the Sentosa resort … Continue Reading
One of my favourites things about travel photography is perhaps one of the most obvious reasons why people indulge in photography in the first place really – the ability to relive their experiences through the photos. Recently, I’ve been re-obsessed with Bali (as you can probably tell from our Instagram). I say ‘re-obsessed’ but the … Continue Reading
Please stop what you’re doing right now and take a look at this amazing little island. The island is called Tavarua and it is in Fiji. The ‘deserted island’ game is strong with this one. Image via Except of course, it isn’t deserted and you couldn’t spend many an afternoon lazing around on its beautiful sandy beaches … Continue Reading
