But despite only spending approximately 45 hours inContinueContinue reading “48 hours in Porto”

With zero expectations, veryContinueContinue reading “Koh Lanta – Thailand’s Hidden Gem!”
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”
