After being hit with another heatwave here in the UK, we decided to make the most of it and go exploring. Here in Bristol, we're pretty lucky that we are surrounded by great places to go for a walk. One of which is Bennet's Patch and White's Paddock, home to some beautiful sculptures and scenery,... Continue Reading →
Arnos Vale Cemetery, Bristol
This is my favourite place to go for a walk in Bristol. A beautifully green hidden gem, this cemetery holds 170,000 of the departed in their final resting place. Most of which has been reclaimed by nature, making this cemetery so incredibly unique. Opened in 1837, the Arnos Vale was created as a spacious garden... Continue Reading →
The flea market, Malvern
I love searching for a bargain and finding hidden gems. Ever since I was little, I've always loved a flea market. For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about, a flea market (also known as a bootsale) is an event in the UK, where people sell their unwanted belongings. As you... Continue Reading →
The Malverns, England
For the past ten months, I have seen the Malverns from a far every day. The farm I am currently working and living on, is just over ten miles from the Malverns. In the middle of Worcestershire, Herefordshire and a small part of North Gloucestershire, this range of hills has an amazing view that stretches... Continue Reading →
The every day wild life of the outback
Being from the city, the wild life of Bristol isn't very exciting. It's not that we don't have any, it's just that we don't see much of it. So being in the Australian country (or if you're Aussie, the bush) whenever I found anything, I would have to pick it up and take a photo...... Continue Reading →
The Devils Marbles
Whilst road tripping through the centre of Australia, we stopped for camp at the Devils Marbles. Since I decided I wanted to travel to Australia, I've always wanted to see the Marbles but I was never sure on the logistics of how to do it. I looked into doing a tour or getting a coach...

Bath Christmas markets
One of my favourite places to visit whilst being home has always been Bath. Only a twenty minute drive from Bristol, a last minute plan to visit the Christmas markets was definitely a good one.After being home and getting straight back into work, we were in need of a bit of Christmas. We are currently... Continue Reading →
Brunching and bronzing at Potato Head Lounge, Bali
The first thing that comes to mind when I see 'Potato Head', is this guy. An odd name for a beach club but definitely one you'll remember. The Potato Head Lounge is located just off the beach in Seminyak. It is a little tricky to find the first time you go there, as there is... Continue Reading →
Bristol Vintage kilo sale
Okay so being home isn’t that bad... The autumnal build up to Christmas is my favourite time of year, so it’s nice to be home for it. It’s lovely creeping into winter when being chilly is a novelty that hasn’t worn off yet. Of course the approach to Christmas comes with a lot of shopping,... Continue Reading →
My experience at Care For Dogs, Chiang Mai
This was my best day in Chiang Mai... Actually this was my best day in Thailand... Perhaps my best day in the whole of SEA. After a week in Pai, we arrived back in Chiang Mai and I was in search of things to see/do. My biggest passion in life is dogs, so when I... Continue Reading →
Chiang Mai Sunday night market
This market is not for the claustrophobic or the enochlophobic. Once you step into the crowd, it’s like being caught in a current. You just have to travel with the crowd and go with the flow. If you want to look stop, step well over to the side, otherwise you’ll probably get trodden on. Penetrating... Continue Reading →
Pai Canyon
I love Pai! I came to here two years ago whilst on a tour but only stayed for a few days. It was during rainy season back then, so it’s great to see Pai in the sunlight and not have to carry an umbrella. A quiet mountain town, Pai definitely has its own feel and... Continue Reading →
Getting the night train to Chiangmai from Bangkok
I'll be completely honest, I'm not a fan of Bangkok. It has it's moments but mostly I find it too busy and too alike the traffic congestion in London. It doesn't really do Thailand justice. A few people may disagree with me and that's fine, that's just my personal opinion. 🙂 We stayed in Bangkok... Continue Reading →
Monkey Forest, Ubud
Let's be honest, you can't go to Bali with out visiting Ubud. A strong statement yes, but it's a justified one! One of my must-see attractions in Ubud is the Monkey Forest. The entry fee is 50,000rp and it takes around half an hour to walk around the whole forest. I like monkeys but they... Continue Reading →
Uluwatu temple and one of the best beaches in Bali
South of Bali, you'll find Uluwatu Temple and a handful of beautiful hidden beaches. Some are a little hard to find and do involve some scooter off roading, but they are totally worth it. The drive to Uluwatu from Kuta is a bit scary as it's on all of the main roads but it's much... Continue Reading →
