Celebrating two years of blogging! (and some things I’ve learnt on the way)
Cheers! My blog has just turned two, which as far as I can tell, means it’s about ready to walk and talk on its own. Kindergarten is probably just around the corner. To mark the occasion, I’ve written this shamelessly self congratulatory post (the 331st post of the site!), to celebrate the fact that my […]
Australia–a land of contrast
I spent a year traversing the vast nation of Australia by four wheel drive, and in that time I took in some absolutely spectacular sights. I was asked to put together a guest photo post by the wonderful Samuel of travel blog Nomadic Samuel, on a theme of my choice, and I thought I’d share […]
That time I was shipwrecked
I recently undertook a 3000km round trip across Europe for entirely unexciting reasons. Unless sorting out stuff in a loft you’ve not been in for four years counts as interesting. This trip allowed me two things. One, lots of time to listen to Abba, as my Mum was in charge of the music selection. Two, […]
Travel blogging tips from the experts: Travel yourself
In today’s travel blogging tips interview I’ve been able to grab hold of Cailin O’Neil, the writing and video talent behind no less than three travel blogs covering her life, her travel stories and food. There was me thinking one site was hard enough to run! Cailin is the first person I’ve interviewed in this […]
How to get an awesome view of Barcelona – for free!
When I arrive in a new city, I have a bit of a thing for finding the highest point around. This is for two reasons: first, because I like a good view, and second, in an attempt to orientate myself. The orientation part only vaguely helped on my recent trip to Barcelona. The city is […]
Dear future technology: a travellers wishlist
Today, I’m going to do one of my rare technology themed posts. I’m writing about what I’d like to see from my technology in the coming years. Don’t worry. I’ll be back to talking about the rest of the world’s awesomeness soon enough. I’m not one to complain. I already have the equivalent of a […]
In Photos: Gaudi’s Barcelona
GaudĂ. It’s kind of hard to visit Barcelona without spending your time gaping in awe at the architectural and artistic genius that he left behind all over the city. A great deal of my week in Barcelona was therefore spent, gaping in awe, at his many truly incredible constructions. As well as gaping, I was […]
Things I didn’t know about Barcelona!
I’ve just spent a week visiting Barcelona. I’d like to say that I did a whole bunch of research before setting off, but to be honest, I’m not that great at research. For example, I managed to get through an entire University degree without stepping inside a University library. Plus, I like a place to […]
Angouleme–wanders around the ramparts
This is my third post on AngoulĂŞme! Who would have thought one French town could hold so much appeal? Admittedly, AngoulĂŞme cheated slightly, by seducing me with awesome street art. That’s a good way for any city to get my attention, and more than one post. See Berlin’s street art for example. So I have […]
