A Weekend In Cairns
I’m off to Cairns this weekend to visit friends who have just moved there, and I can’t wait! I know the city reasonably well, as I did my 3-months farm work an hour away and it’s a great little place for a holiday! Known as the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef and famed for its backpacker…

Throwback: A Short Trip to Stockholm
Last December my mum, brother and I went on a short weekend break to Stockholm. When I say short, I really mean it! It was more of a whistle stop tour of the city than an actual city break, but we still got to see and experience enough to make it a worthwhile trip. We landed…

Inner West Is Best!
Last week marked my 6 month anniversary in Australia. 6 months. How did that happen? Time seems to have flown by, but living in London also feels like a lifetime ago, and I really do miss it. After 5 long, long months of hostel living, myself and 2 friends FINALLY moved into a flat in the…

Glastonbury Festival
It’s now been over 1 month since Glastonbury 2017 closed it’s gates; and I think I’m just about ready to talk about it. This year would have been my 10 year anniversary at Worthy Farm but moving to Australia kind of got in the way this year. For me, Glastonbury has always been a special, magical…

A Little Trip to Ljubljana
Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia is one of the nicest cities I’ve visited and was the 3rd stop on my inter-rail tour last summer. I instantly fell in love with the city and it’s people and was so glad to be spending nearly a week in the country. Ljubljana is super small for a capital…

Life on a Banana Farm – Part 2
Time to dish the dirt on the actual farming. There are only a few types of farms around Innisfail; papaya, rambutan and (by far the most common) banana. I was lucky and ended up on a banana farm with my 2 friends, so that automatically made life slightly easier. However, rumour has it that banana…

Life on a Banana Farm – Part 1
First things first, apologies for the complete radio silence over the past 5 months – shocking, I know! I’d like to make my excuses and claim I’ve been stuck on a banana farm in the middle of nowhere, with no form of communication with the outside world. But that would be a lie. Apart from…

Guest Post // An Island Unexplored – Meet New Caledonia
A hidden gem among the tropical paradises of the world, New Caledonia, an archipelago in Pacific Ocean, should definitely be on your perfect vacation dream list. The country is incredibly rich when it comes to culture and history but also very diverse in its flora and fauna. Of course, beautiful beaches and lagoons are a…

I Love Berlin
I’ve just returned from an amazing (and stupidly freezing) trip to Berlin! I’ve been to Germany a fair few times and it’s one of my favourite European countries, but prior to this trip I’d never been to Berlin. I’d heard so many amazing things about the city, especially the night life, and I was so excited to…

Second Stop: 24 Hours in Vienna
Due to some bad planning/ incorrect train timetables online, we only had around 20 hours to spend in Vienna. We did a complete whirlwind tour of the city and managed to see some of the main sites – albeit very quickly! We arrived into Vienna in the late morning and by the time we had booked…
