Travel Favourites: All of my Top Threes
"What's your favourite country?" "...favourite city?" "...favourite place in the world?" I don't have the answers to these questions, but this post comes pretty close. Here I have listed all of my *current* travel top threes. Ie. my very favourite places on the planet, and why.
Basking in sunny Lisbon and partying with Brazilians
Luckily for me, my recent jaunt to Portugal didn't end with pretty Porto and I got to spend a couple of days revisiting one of my favourite cities: Lisbon. This city is undeniably cool, strikingly beautiful and full of life and colour. I loved it the first time I visited and I loved it even more on my return.
Revisiting the loveable city of Porto
The colourful, laid-back city of Porto charmed me the first time I visited 2 years ago. This summer I was lucky enough to go back and fell in love all over again.
Visiting Laganas Bay – Home to Loggerhead Sea Turtles and Careless Tourists
Are the majestic, beautiful Greek Islands becoming overrun by tourists? How does this affect the local Loggerhead Turtles and what can easily be done about it?
My travel plans have COMPLETELY changed.
Letter 157 In the space of a year, or 40 letters, my plans have completely changed. Plans for work, for living and, most importantly, for travel.

You can't not fall a little bit … Continue reading Prague is pretty in any season
My winter wonderland – from Wroclaw to Prague
Letter 155 My previous letter culminated in my final evening in Wroclaw, spent in a bar with 10 relative strangers. However, my last day in Wroclaw was so full and lovely, that I felt it deserved it's own letter. I woke up to a city dusted in snow beneath blue skies. These truly are my … Continue reading My winter wonderland – from Wroclaw to Prague
8 nationalities, 1 table and lots of beer – Wroclaw
Letter 154 Having not travelled solo for almost a year, I had almost forgotten the feeling of spending an evening with complete strangers that feel like old pals. Chatting about each others lives, places we've been and comparing cultures. It is truly remarkable and this is what Wroclaw will always signify for me. I only … Continue reading 8 nationalities, 1 table and lots of beer – Wroclaw
The best things are the least expected – Poznan
Letter 153 What started out as a need to escape my new adult working life and potential boredom at home, ended up in a crazy trip full of insane places, fantastic people and countless memories that I’ll treasure. I spent 10 days in Poznan, Wroclaw and Prague and that little sprinkle of travel magic has … Continue reading The best things are the least expected – Poznan
