After meeting countless people on my travels who have said this golden gem it is an absolute must do, it has long been on my list. Considered the holy capital for the Sikh religion and home to the Golden Temple – often compared to the grand beauty of the Taj Mahal – it is considered […]
Back in 99’, while I was following Ricky Martin’s advice by ‘Livin La Vida Loca’ and boozing my way through my University degree in an ill fitting pair of cargo pants, some other bright sparks at an Ashram in a hot and sticky land far away were sowing the seeds of something pretty special. The […]
Lisbon offers a subtropical Mediterranean climate, in other words, those long summers and short winters us pasty British folk are often in desperate need of. The city had been on my list for a while now, but summer prices had kept my twitching booking finger at bay. However one of the joys of not having […]
I hadn’t done a ‘proper’ travelling trip for a long while, one that involves an uncomfortably long haul flight and embracing a new way of living, even if only for a few weeks. I travelled a lot in my twenties but being younger at the time much of my trips were soaked in boozy buckets […]
Located southeast of Bali, across the Badung Strait are the Nusa trio, Lembongan, Penida and the very little sister Ceningan. Choosing the one to spend our mini break from Bali on was more faff than I thought it would be, but after much deliberation we eventually settled on Nusa Lembongan. You can read about my […]
Choosing an Island took a lot more time than expected! We knew we wanted to explore one of the Islands off of Bali and spent some time reviewing them and chatting to other explorers before finally settling on Nusa Lembongan. It’s a pretty little Island only 30 minutes by speed boat from Bali, but it didn’t […]
The Island was a trip away from the hustle and bustle of Bali (if you can even call it that) and so of course yoga was going to feature heavily on the menu. Despite being a small Island there was a good amount of choice for the yoga seeker, especially in the area of Jungut Batu […]
While Lantau Island had been recommended to me several times, the research had left me confused. I kept thinking that because the cable cars weren’t working (they are planned to be opening again in June 2017 https://www.np360.com.hk/en/ ) I would have to walk from Tung Chung all the way there, I do like a walk […]
I nearly didn’t go. After varied bits of research across forums and website I came to the understanding that because the cable cars were out of action to see the Buddha I would have to walk for at least three hours (they open back up around June 2017 https://www.np360.com.hk/en/explore-np360/cable-car/ ). I figured that with the […]
I’m not sure if I ever considered Hong Kong as a destination. True I had often thought I would love to go there and see the bright lights and fast life of a city other than my hometown London, but more as a good place to pause en route to somewhere lovely. But let me […]
