How much does it cost to travel?

February 11, 2016

The number one thing that stops us from traveling is MONEY, following closely behind is commitments (such as jobs), fear of the unknown and the courage to take the plunge and  leave your home and comfort zone. But how much money does it actually cost to travel? The answer is…not as much as you think. … More How much does it cost to travel?

25 Things I learned in South East Asia

January 30, 2016

  I felt like a giant 2. Squat toilets are gross, inconvenient and hard to use 3. You should always carry your own toilet paper as apparently it’s not a necessity 4. The food is AMAZING 5. Vietnamese people actually eat dogs, it’s not a myth. They also eat cats (so does Tom apparently) 6. Whether … More 25 Things I learned in South East Asia

Christmas in Ninh Binh, Vietnam

January 17, 2016

It was Christmas Eve and we were taking a two hour train ride at 9am from Hanoi to Ninh binh where we would be arriving at 11am ready for a nice three hour boat ride down the river and through the caves in Trang An. However, things didn’t go quite to plan. We arrived at … More Christmas in Ninh Binh, Vietnam

Happiness on Halong Bay, Vietnam 

January 10, 2016

Halong bay has been high on my list of places to visit for quite some time and finally the time had come to see it with my own eyes. The bay has around 1,600 island limestone karsts, most of which are uninhabited and untouched due to their shape and size. In 1994 It was named … More Happiness on Halong Bay, Vietnam

Why Hoi An stole my heart, Vietnam

January 4, 2016

I had heard so many good things about Hoi An and because of this it was one of the places I was looking forward to visiting the most in Vietnam and it definitely lived up to my expectations. Hoi An is the place to go if you are wanting to get custom made clothes and … More Why Hoi An stole my heart, Vietnam

Rainy days in Nha Trang, Vietnam

December 28, 2015

Our bus ride from Da Lat to Nha Trang would turn out to be the worst one so far. It was only a short four hour ride but two of these hours included going over a mountain pass on one of the windiest roads I have ever been on. The views were simply stunning but … More Rainy days in Nha Trang, Vietnam

Wearing sweaters instead of sweating in Da Lat, Vietnam 

December 23, 2015

From Mui Ne, we were packed into a slightly oversized mini van for a 4.5hr drive on the windy roads to the beautiful town of Da Lat. I’m glad Tom and I are not tall or fat because we barely fit into the seats of this bus and our knees were touching the seat infront … More Wearing sweaters instead of sweating in Da Lat, Vietnam

The sand dunes of Mui Ne, Vietnam

December 17, 2015

After searching around for the cheapest bus ticket to Mui Ne from Ho Chi Minh, we finally found one for 90,000 VND ($5.50 AUD). The weird thing was though, it was a sleeper bus which mean our seat reclined almost the whole way back and the bus had bunk ‘beds’ like a dorm room. This … More The sand dunes of Mui Ne, Vietnam

Hustle and bustle in Ho chi Minh city, Vietnam 

December 9, 2015

Unfortunately we had to cut our time short in Cambodia. We hadn’t done our research properly and found ourselves heading into high risk malaria areas without anti malaria medication which we didn’t want to do.  So after a quick two days in Phom Penh, we boarded our Giant Ibis bus to our first stop in … More Hustle and bustle in Ho chi Minh city, Vietnam
