It's not that I miss you or need you. It's how you seem to appear in every emotion, every thought, every new step I take. It's when i'm arguing at 3am with a boy that's not you. It's when he doesn't realise how hurt I am by things in my life that I take it …

It’s the journey not the destination.
Before I set off traveling earlier this year, I had in mind that I wanted to write about the hard truth of what travelling really looks like. Not the perfectly edited photos of people watching sunsets that we see on social media. But, the real, tiring, somewhat dangerous adventures you go on when on your …
Saving money for travelling.
Travelling the world is something 90% of people say they want to do. I'd say about 10% of those people will never travel further than Europe. And the dominating factor to not travelling? Yes, you're right. A seven lettered sentence, "I don't have the money to travel." This summer I was lucky enough, for the …
I went vegan for a week and here’s what happened.

Hoi An: the city of lights.
Weeks before I set off to Vietnam, I was constantly looking up the destinations that travellers had recommended to me. One of these places was Hoi An. I found myself refreshing images daily, astounded that a town could hold such beauty. Hoi An is in the north of Vietnam, and was my third stop. I …
One should always travel alone.
Every time someone commented on me traveling alone the line from the incredibles came into my head, "fly home buddy, I work alone" and every time I try to think of a witty line in relation to traveling alone. But I can't. So here's my journey and advice on traveling solo. It's crazy to write …
Halong Bay: Vietnam’s World Heritage Site.
In 1994 Halong Bay was designated Vietnam's World Heritage Site. Whether you've seen images online or visited the wonder yourself, there's no question as to why it gained the significant title. Imagine cruising along clear blue water, stood on the top deck of a boat, beer flowing, whilst your eyes lay upon clusters of mountains …
Chiang Mai: my first solo adventure
My body was unable to sleep all night, flooding with anxiety of what was going to happen in the next few weeks. A 20 year old girl tackling Asia alone, I was excited but overwhelmed with the fear of the unknown. Looking back at the emotions I felt that night makes me now laugh. I …
Koh phi phi
The island that was made famous from the film "The Beach". Discovering the 1 mile Long Island, it was clear to me why the characters were so desperate to get to Maya Beach. I want to start this post off by warning people about transport to koh phi phi. Many people go from Koh Phangan …
Leaving my heart, soul (and dignity) in Koh Phangan
Koh Phangan is the infamous island for the full moon party, it has much more beauty than just partying. But due to our severe hangovers we never saw that part. Arriving to the island by boat, our hostel Lazy House shenanigans was just a five minute walk from the pier. (You wouldn't believe how much …
