Motorbikes, dogs and a lot of traveling.
I love riding my motorbike through the countryside. Especially when the roads take you to hidden gems like these. I've passed the sign for the Bee Shelter countless of times but never actually looked into it. I assumed it was a conservation area or something like that, but it's actually a historic site of listed... Continue Reading →
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 →
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 →
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 →
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 →
I'll start off by saying, getting there was not easy.If Google Maps tells you you're good to drive down a road, there's a 75% chance you're not. This has happened to us quite a few times on our trip. Also, every now and then we glanced at the map only to see that the road... Continue Reading →
This was our last stop before we got to Hanoi and completed our trip. We had booked three days here so this was our time to relax and let our bottoms rest. This trip has been incredible but my bottom will never get used to sitting on a bike for more than four hours every... Continue Reading →
A few posts back I said that Vietnam's roads aren't as bad as what I thought they were... I take it back. The roads are absolutely mental. If you look closely at the photo above, you'll see there are actually piglets in those baskets. I did get a closer image but I deleted it because... Continue Reading →
Hoi An is with out a doubt my favourite town in Vietnam. It will most likely stay my favourite town too as it's going to be a hard one to beat. We arrived in Hoi An after a terrible thunderstorm. It was like the sky was caving in. We were soaked through and feeling pretty... Continue Reading →
The further north we travel, the prettier Vietnam seems to get. We left Dalat in the rain and luckily seemed to drive out of it. Our ponchos were used for only two hours that day which is a new record. We decided to take the coastal road instead of the mountains as it seemed a bit... Continue Reading →
Our stay at the Bamboo Lodge in Đồng Nai was lovely. It was so comfortable and peaceful I didn't want to leave. After a big cup of the best coffee in world and a cuddle from the kitten, we were heading off to Dalat.The mountain roads of Vietnam are so picturesque I couldn't quite believe... Continue Reading →
I may take this back this back at some point... but Vietnam is not as terrifying as what I thought it would be. After watching Top Gear in Vietnam I was a little skeptic about the trip. Of course the roads here are absolutely wild, but I can honestly say that they are no where... Continue Reading →
We have finished work on the feedlot and are now offically unemployed! I thought it would be a huge relief not to be working and that I would be excited to go, but I actually just feel sad more than anything. For six months our lives have revolved around feeding the cows, watching over them... Continue Reading →
After spending an incredible three weeks travelling along the beautiful coast of Western Australia, we were getting closer to the boarder. Our last stop before we began to drive inland, towards Norseman was Esperance. Esperance is a lovely town well known for its pink lake and salt flats. Wow, a pink lake! I thought. Well,...

It's crazy to me that I have lived in Australia for two years now. It really doesn't feel like that long ago I was sat at my desk in work, staring out the window and thinking "get me away from here!" I've had a fantastic time travelling around this beautiful country and I have experienced... Continue Reading →
