A Perfectly Imperfect Proposal

I got proposed to on a Brooklyn street corner beside a grimey sticker covered ATM, whilst drinking a pint- and it was perfect. This post comes as more of a surprise to me than it does to you. Marriage is something I have never really considered, but when Pablo asked if I would be his […]

A Day at Coney Island, New York

Coney Island was top of my “must see” list this visit to New York. Though Pablo and I have been fortunate enough to visit the city many times before, something always got in the way of us venturing to the famous seaside attraction. This trip it was firmly in the diary even before we touched […]

10 Alternative Things To Do In Vegas If Don’t Drink or Gamble

I never thought Las Vegas was my scene; I’m not a gambler (because I don’t have the money to throw away) and even though I am partial to drinking I am more of chilled out dive bar kind of chick. It wasn’t until I actually visited Vegas I realised how much more there was to […]

My Travel Story

I always think of my travel story as starting at 18 when I went off on my first big solo adventure around South East Asia, Australia and New Zealand; but actually it started WAY before that at the grand old age of 15 months when my mum took me on my first holiday to Lincolnshire. […]

Budapest Alternative Walking Tour

Thankfully, however, the group unlike many other tour operators still took groups on a […]

Budapest Day 1 – Walking The Danube

  Though there was an hour wait we were happy to grab a coffee from Kontakt its sister place across the street. The coffee was fantastically bold and fragrant giving me a much needed pick me up. After what seemed like no time at all we were seated at a basic box style stable in the […]

Travel Diary Zion National Park

Zion National Park was a detour on our road trip route, but was a stop I was willing to go out of my way for. The journey was meant to take a lengthy nine hours but due to getting stuck between a massive snow-thunder storm it took a little longer and was a much more […]

Sitting At The Window Seat

In general, I am a pretty relaxed traveller; long journeys don’t intimidate me and I don’t need much more than a sleeping bag, toilet, and shower to happily bed down for the night, but one thing I am particular about is sitting at the window seat. It seems petty to kick up a fuss about such a small […]

Travel Diary Salton Sea

I am a huge fan of post-apocalyptic films; they indulge my fascination with how it might all end and the fragility of human existence. During my road trip I felt like I got one step closer to experiencing what the world would look like if it was to suddenly be taken out when Pablo and I stopped […]
