Personal Blog
As a full time traveller, I am constantly exploring new destinations and experiencing weird and wonderful encounters and situations. You’ll find the more glossy descriptions and recommendations of each location in my destinations page, but here I share my own personal experiences of the places I visit, including some not so glossy bits. Here’s where I make mistakes that you can learn from, figure out the tips and tricks that I wish I’d read on other blogs, discover hidden gems, and try and test local restaurants to later recommend to my clients, and you.

Mongolian Road Trip Part 2: The Saga Continues

Our Epic Mongolian Road Trip – Part 1
Mongolia has been a bucket list destination for a while, but as a sort of wild dream, not a realistic plan. The plan that did end up coming together was to hire a car and set off into the wilderness. Here’s how it went.
