06 Jul Scenes From Around The World: A Mash-Up Art Project
You guys may remember our Antipodes art project from a few months back…if you don’t, you can check it out here. Although we are still hoping to complete it (and publish it right here for your viewing pleasure), we are finding it incredibly difficult to retrieve pics from certain parts of the world *ahem, Ulan Ude*. But we will not fret! We shall continue and persevere (and hopefully complete our collection sometime soon), but in the meantime, we thought we’d use our own pics for another art project (and we’re not just talking about our Instagram pics), hoping to show how incredibly beautiful (and similar) our world is – at least in our humble opinion. Below is a collection of fantasy...
14 Jun Is The Otter Trail In South Africa Really Worth The Year-Long Waiting List?
Appropriated from the original post seen on Traveller24.com “Good things come to those who wait.” “The longer you wait, the better it gets.” [INSERT ANY OTHER DEEP WAITING-IS-GOOD QUOTE HERE] We have all heard these words. They’ve been quoted and re-quoted throughout our lives. Our parents, well-respected elders, esteemed banks trying to sell us an investment plan, and, well, anyone on Pinterest who collects inspirational quotes, has undoubtedly tried to convince us that indeed, ‘good things come to those who wait’. But in an age of instant gratification, one-click orders, and speedy pick-up and drop-off services like Uber, it is getting harder and harder to justify waiting for anything. So why, in this era, would we even consider waiting an...
01 May Eating Our Way Through Asia: Pics For The Foodies
Nasi Goreng and Mie Goreng. Bánh Cuõn, Phõ and Cao Lâu. Amok, Lok Lak and Kuyteav. Okonomiyaki, Mochi and Sashimi. If you’ve traveled through Asia (specifically Indonesia, Vietnam, Cambodia and Japan) like we recently have, you’ll know that these hard-to-pronounce words are in fact extremely popular (and widely-eaten) dishes from the four countries. Those that know me well, know that I have a slightly sickening obsession with food. I dream about food, rely on food to get me through the hard days (sometimes a little too much), and if I wasn’t traveling the world taking pics and telling stories, I’d probably be running a vegan beach-side bakery (maybe that’s a dream I need to fulfill in the next decade…hmmm…). Although there...
13 Mar Hoi An: The Venice Of South East Asia
If you’re like us (and not the majority, who will rent a motorbike and ride down Vietnam’s coastline à la Top Gear style), you’ll fly into what feels like Vietnam’s Las Vegas (aka Danang aka boulevards of luxurious resorts), and take a quick 30-min taxi ride to the centre of Hoi An. Let me warn you – your image of Vietnam…in fact, your image of South East Asia, will never be the same again. What a marvelous little town! We (wisely) booked ourselves a room on the neighboring island of Cảm Nam at a place called Rural Scene Villa. You can catch a free 5-min ride from the hotel to the main Ancient Town centre in their electric...
03 May The Ultimate Road Trip In Namibia
There’s countries you know you need to visit before you die, because, well, half the world has been there and you’ve seen the iconic photographs and TV shows (do people still watch TV?!). Italy, France, USA, and Japan come to mind. Then there’s countries that not too many have discovered, and really raved about. Sure tourism is high almost everywhere, but some countries don’t get enough limelight. Well, Namibia is, in our opinion, one of those sensational gems that really could use some more attention (especially because we’ve had “Walk through the Namib desert” on a road trip in Namibia on our Wanderlist since the beginning). And now here we are, post road-trip-in-Namibia, still in shock and in awe of...
16 Nov We Made It To Sydney, Australia
Our first true experience of jet lag and homesickness, (arriving in Sydney) felt hugely familiar. From the jacarandas mimicking those of Pretoria’s avenues, to the bustle of the CBD with buildings resembling Sandton’s tower, we felt like we were back home in South Africa. Granted, the warm climate, English signage, social bar-and-restaurant culture, and left-roadside driving did seem a little familiar. But Sydney’s oceanfront and ferry rides between the famous Circular Quay (home to the Harbour bridge and Opera House) and the place we called home for two-weeks in Manly, was enough to wipe all the Johannesburg familiarity away. We spent a couple days missioning around the sleek, modern city, discovering Newtown (Sydney’s quirky-and-fond-of-vegan-cuisine student region, where we met the amazing team...
