Somewhat last minute, but I am off to Dublin for the very first time weekend, awesome!. In fact by the time you read this I shall either be on the plane, or already touched down in terminal 1 at Dublin international. From there its a whirlwind Saturday and Sunday of adventure, with the goal of [...]
Copenhagen, my reward for one seriously tough August (work wise), but I made it through the month and into September, yay me! My reward for silly hours spent working with spreadsheets, contract documents, emails and databases ... a little trip to Denmark. I'm totally overcome by both relief and happiness right now. Copenhagen So to Denmark, [...]
The Transfagarasan Highway ... Seat belt Mirror Press play on epic soundtrack Hit record on the GoPro 1 last haribo in the mouth Mirror again Signal and Maneuver That is how a roadtrip done in my opinion, and that is how I intend to spend the greater part of the next 4 days whilst [...]
Oh hello Basilicata, didn't see you there, lurking in the south, on the instep of the boot, away from the likes of Milan, Venice, Rome and Florence. No litterally, I did not see you there. Who are you? Where did you come from? I wont lie, before the start of the year I knew little [...]
Ah Barcelona, second time lucky. Once upon a time I tried to win a trip to Barcelona with Easyjet ... I failed miserably. I thought I had a good pitch, but ultimately I failed to get enough votes to warrant my inclusion on said trip, sob. Fast forward 2 years and thanks to some hard [...]

The perkiest of all those perks in my book is the friends that you'll inevitably make through the travel blogosphere. They might not all be bloggers themselves, some [...]
Solo travel, and/or solo backpacking, to tell you the truth I've almost forgotten what its like. I'm struggling to think of the last time I travelled for any length of time on my lonesome. Maybe 2010 whilst InterRailing, but that was only for 4 days, after which I met up with a few friends in [...]
Ah Paris. Fine dining - duck confit, onion soup, frogs legs and smelly cheese. Exquisite art - La Louve and the Monna Lisa within. Architectural marvels - the Effiel Tower, Notre Dame and the Galeries Lafayette. Love lockets, shopping, fashion, music, museums ... err a hunchback and Disneyland?? OK so you probably knew all this [...]
An A to Z of New York, coming right up. As a part of my travel around NYC with Travelsupermarket this week, I have been tasked with the job of creating an A to Z of the city. This is no easy task I'm sure you'll agree, but via the magic of social media I [...]
