If the title of this blog post grabbed your attention, just wait until you see the photos from this trip!! I am incredibly lucky to have the best job in the world. Not only am I allowed to live and work in Asia right now, but I’m also given the most amazing opportunities to sampleContinueContinue reading “Sailing Southeast Asia on a Luxury Cruise!”

Life as digital nomads in Bangkok
After a wonderful few weeks of travelling around Singapore and Malaysia, we were ready to get back to work and start planning the next lot of adventures around Southeast Asia. I don’t remember ever coming to a decision on Thailand, but Joe and I have both been before (separately) and it just seemed the rightContinueContinue reading “Life as digital nomads in Bangkok”
Travel Snippets: Singapore to Kuala Lumpur
I think I might start a new style of post on here called ‘travel snippets’. I’m always really intrigued how people get from A to B. The actual TRAVEL side of travelling. The bits that a lot of people are put off by, or find stressful and difficult to organise. I’m sure we’ll have thoseContinueContinue reading “Travel Snippets: Singapore to Kuala Lumpur”
Top 10 Things To Do in Singapore
Singapore is a city of contrasts. It’s vast, technologically advanced, and surprisingly multicultural. But it’s also somehow relaxing, slow-paced, and incredibly friendly. I’m not a natural city person so this laidback vibe was welcomed, especially given the jet lag, 8 hours time difference, and general culture shock. Now I’ll be honest, I hadn’t researched veryContinueContinue reading “Top 10 Things To Do in Singapore”
First Time Skiing in the French Alps!
In March this year I took one of the best trips EVER: a ski trip to the French Alps with a group of my best friends! It feels strange to be reminiscing on this trip while it’s the end of summer, but there’s a part of me that misses being bundled up against the cold,ContinueContinue reading “First Time Skiing in the French Alps!”
Two Weeks in Scotland
At the beginning of July, Joe and I set out on our first proper holiday in almost two years: a two week road trip around bonny Scotland! Although we were fully prepared for it to be raining and cold, it actually turned out to be the most beautiful sunny summer holiday as we were thereContinueContinue reading “Two Weeks in Scotland”
72 HOURS IN… BUDAPEST
For my 50th blog post (!!) I thought I would finally get around to writing about my first ever independent city break, Budapest! During my gap year, I was working and saving up for my big 3 month adventure around Southeast Asia. About halfway through my 7 months of working at a camping store, IContinueContinue reading “72 HOURS IN… BUDAPEST”
72 HOURS IN… VALENCIA
One of the best places I’ve visited on a summer holiday was Valencia, down the coast from the more popular Barcelona. Quieter, cheaper, and arguably more authentically Spanish, Valencia was a less touristy and slower paced city break. For those who prefer relaxing and exploring by foot, rather than having a jam-packed sight-seeing schedule, ValenciaContinueContinue reading “72 HOURS IN… VALENCIA”
LIFE ABROAD CUT SHORT: HOME FROM CHINA
It’s about time I did a bit of a life update, following the explosion of Covid-19 across the globe: I have come home. Something that I did not want to write anytime soon, only 9 weeks into what was supposed to be the adventure of a lifetime. How do I feel about this? Disappointed. Sad.ContinueContinue reading “LIFE ABROAD CUT SHORT: HOME FROM CHINA”
UPDATE ON LIFE IN CHINA
Hi everyone, I’ve been receiving quite a lot of messages recently about life in China during the coronavirus epidemic, so I thought I’d post a little update now that it’s March (!!) and around 6 weeks since the whole situation blew up. For those who don’t know, I moved to China at the beginning ofContinueContinue reading “UPDATE ON LIFE IN CHINA”
