The 2017 edition of the North Face Surge backpack is upon us, built for the modern day traveller and combining comfort with ample storage (plus protection) for all of our tech which has now become central to the way we access information on the road. As ever, I am never far from a new backpack, [...]
Top or bottom bunk? Honestly, I'm not just out to insult those of you that like sleeping on the top bunk. For those of you who don't know what the Inbetweeners is, its a British comedy TV series about 4 male teenagers who sit uncomfortably somewhere in between the cool kids and the less popular members of [...]
Solo travel, again, for the first time in a long time! Well that was different, and not entirely what I was expecting, or prepared for. First off I was expecting snow, of which there was none, and secondly I was expecting a few like minded people, but they were few and far between. In fact [...]
If you dont already know, in just a few days I'm off to explore Laos and Cambodia, two countries I should have visited a long time ago on my gap year, but failed miserably. Well anyway, this Friday once the working day is done I shall be getting on a plane to Bangkok and setting [...]

Typing this very sentence I sit in cubicle hell, hoping that my boss cant see that I'm doing something much more interesting than crunching numbers. I appreciate I'm lucky to have a stable job, especially one [...]
An #FF fiend and lover of foodporn fridays, today's interviewee is the awesome Tom, otherwise known as @waegook_tom. He's the fella you want to speak to if you're at all interested in becoming an expat in Korea, maybe like Tom you want to go teach out there? Anyway, Tom looks to be coming towards the [...]
Last night whilst strolling through London, the mrs surprised me with a couple of tickets for the London Eye. She's a catch that one! Sods law, middle of July and its lashing with rain, but even when wet the London skyline still looks spectacular. This is probably the best pic I took. Here you [...]
