The ultimate guide for independent travellers seeking inspiration, advice and adventures beyond their wildest dreams
I’ve already done my annual ‘year in pictures’ post but let’s be real, the highlights reel is just a fraction of what actually goes on in our lives, travel or otherwise.

Can you believe it? 2016 is already coming to a close! The years just seem to keep passing more and more quickly, and this one has truly gone in the blink of an eye. However, despite the year moving quickly, I have managed to pack a lot of interesting travels and adventures into it. So, […]
