Iceland is all about the wild outdoors. It’s one of the most naturally beautiful countries I’ve ever visited, and it’s chock full of extreme features like volcanoes, glaciers, expansive geo thermal areas, waterfalls and geysers. In this post I’m going to focus a bit on Reykjavik, but also cover the must see, top ticket natural […]
48 hours in Brooklyn
To report on our recent trip to NYC, I decided to offer something different first up and write about the time we spent in Brooklyn. Although the majority of the popular NYC sights tourists hit up are in Manhattan, there’s loads going on in Brooklyn that allow you to see another side of NYC and […]
48 hours in Hoi An
Following our tour around Ha Long Bay and a few days in Hanoi, we made our way south further down the coast of Vietnam to see what more awesome culinary delights and historical sites we could find. Having originally planned to take the train from Hanoi to Hue, we instead opted for the faster means of […]
48 hours in Hanoi
When we decided to visit Vietnam, I got excited to immerse myself in the chaos of South East Asia again. The last time I was in this part of the world was in late 2009, so the idea of dodging scooters, eating street food and drinking cheap beer was well overdue. We arrived on a […]
Overnight Cruising in Vietnam’s Ha Long Bay
Ha Long Bay is hailed as one of the great natural wonders of the world. It’s high up there on many peoples bucket lists and this Vietnamese national treasure is unlike any other place in the world. So when we were planning our trip through Vietnam, there was no way we were going to miss […]
48 hours in Kuala Lumpur
Following on from our Christmas and NYE 2013 adventures in my home town of Melbourne, we started making our way back to London via South East Asia. As we were flying with Malaysia Airlines, we had a stopover in Kuala Lumpur as a reintroduction to Asia before we slingshotted up to Vietnam. I’d been to […]
The Olsen – An Artful Melbourne Hotel in the heart of Chapel Street
Over Christmas I flew back home to Australia to visit family and friends and enjoy a bit of sunshine in my hometown of Melbourne. After we got over the Christmas food coma and endured the first heatwave, we ventured into the city to stay at a few choice hotels and sample the hospitality the Victorian […]
London to Luxembourg – Overnight in the crossroads of Europe
I’d always wanted to check out Luxembourg. Something about the little country’s location, small size and influence from the 3 countries around it made me want to see what it was all about. When cheap Cityjet flights out of London City (LCY) airport came up not that long ago, I decided I’d treat my girlfriend […]
48 hours in Prague
I’d been wanting to see Prague for a while. It was high up on my “Central/Eastern Europe” list, and a city I was only really interested in seeing in the summer due to how cold it gets around that area during winter. I’d heard of how historic and beautiful it was, but also how cheap […]
Exploring Switzerland by Train in Two Days
What do you think of when you think of Switzerland? Cliche travel stereotypes like beautiful mountain ranges, velvety milk chocolate, cheese with holes in it and everyone skiing right? To knock over at least a few of those, how do you squeeze all of that into one trip? Luckily Switzerland isn’t massive and has a […]
