A guide to the Canadian Rockies
One of the most beautiful regions in the world, the Canadian Rockies is filled with inspiring scenery from snow-capped mountains, rushing waterfalls, glacier-fed lakes and an abundance of wildlife. Each season is completely different in this part of the world. Summer see’s rushing waterfalls and wildlife but along with it hordes of tourists and sparse…

Turtle Hatchlings
Our sunburnt skin had enough of the sun as we lay on the bed under the fan in our room, awaiting sunset. I noticed the day was cooling off and the sounds of birds becoming rowdier in the distance. I tapped Wade on the shoulder to wake him so we could start our daily sunset…

Heron Island; The Great Barrier Reef
We took off from the tarmac of Gladstone airport, as opposed to the water like I had imagined. ‘Have you ever flown a plane?’ Vance asked me from the pilots seat as I stared between the double steering wheel and pedals, intimidated by the amount of buttons that crowded the dash. ‘Would you like too?’.…

Day walks in Cradle Mountain
Today was dedicated to a harder day trek in the area. Starting from Ronny Creek carpark, we signed the day-trip book before taking a snap of the sign that indicated the start of the Overland Track. The Overland Track is a 6 day hike, taking you on a 65-kilometre trek from Cradle Mountain to Lake St Clair…

A guide to Japan
Limited time in Japan? I recently spent 9 full days in this beautiful country filled with the friendliest & well-mannered locals, temples, shrines, parks, monkeys, futuristic districts and flashing lights – Japan is much like their fashion, cuisine and lifestyle; anything & everything goes! With limited time to visit Tokyo, Osaka & Kyoto, we dedicated…

Iceland
Iceland was a country that most, like myself, had not really thought possible or even considered a travel destination until recent years of publicity of its beautiful scenery in blockbuster movies. Our original flight from New York to London had us stopping in the capital of Iceland, Reykjavik at 6:00 am for a few hours layover…

Cinque Terre, Italy
We were dropped at a place that appeared to be the middle of nowhere. I feel most people were confused at this particular spot known as La Spezia and without prior research, some opted to stay in the town for ease to the Busabout bus. However the real highlight for this region is the Cinque…

A guide to Rome
Rome is crazy. It’s a bustling city rich in culture and history and there is so much to see, do and take in from this city. Like most major cities, it would take weeks to scratch the surface on all the sites but as always, not everyone has time to spend weeks in just one…
