We often get Instagram DMs from fellow travellers (or not-yet-traveling peers) who ask us about our cameras, our kits, and what equipment we use when hopping between countries, four bags in tow. We’ll normally respond with a very detailed message, explaining the camera equipment we’ve chosen to upgrade to, the lenses we now have in our artillery, and the apps we’ve purchased for our laptops...
If we had to list all the reasons why couples and families fall in love with Bali, then we'd probably never finish this blog post. It seems that more and more people (of all ages) are choosing to travel to (and live in) this Indonesian beauty, and we're certainly not blaming them. The exotic weather, delicious food, wonderful blue skies, ample sunlight, and that laid back atmosphere are just a few reasons (we still can't get those amazing three weeks we spent on the island back in 2017 out of our minds), but let's take a closer look at why Bali is the go-to travel destination for many couples and families, shall we? Bali is sunny throughout the year Ample daylight alongside a...

Many of us dream about travelling and seeing the world, but very few of us actually do it. Oh sure, we might find the time to go abroad one or two weeks a year for a short-term vacation, but we are talking about something a little more long-term...
We know that there’s many reasons to visit Sydney, but chances are, it’s the beaches that are calling your name…as they should be – there’s over 100 of them! Scattered around the harbour and along the coast, you will certainly be spoiled for choice when it comes to finding the perfect spot to dip your toes into the sand. But what if you only have a day dedicated to beach hopping? Well then you’ve come to the right place, because after visiting Sydney (now for our third time), we’ve decided to create four one-day beach-hopping itineraries for you, so that you can decide what sort of Sydney beach experience you’d want from your trip. Sound good? Let’s get stuck into it...
If you’re like us (and 99.9999% of the population of the world) shiny skyscrapers and busy city bustle will be the first thing that pops into your mind when you hear “Dubai”. And rightfully so. Dubai is a global city and the business hub of the Middle East – of course it’s going to offer anything and everything you may ever want and need from a metropolis. But what about outdoor lovers like us? Can they…or shall I say “we”, get what we want from the most populous Emirate in the UAE? Well, during our recent trip to Dubai with The Luxury Collection, we were able to satisfy our nature-loving souls more than we thought we would have...
If you read our last post on Ethiopia, you might already be planning your adventure there (and if that is indeed the case, then that is bloody marvellous – pop us a mail if you have any questions ahead of your trip, and don't forget to check out the Sheraton Addis if you're looking for the ultimate Ethiopian base to travel from.) If, however, you’re more of a Travel For Experiences type, and it’s less about the full itinerary to try and see as much as possible in the least amount of time, then let us share with you seven bucket-list-worthy experiences you should definitely travel to Ethiopia for. Disclaimer: we’ve only done four of the seven, but hey, like we...
We’re not surprised you’re looking to travel to Ethiopia (and we know you will want to after reading this post). Africa is still fairly undiscovered, and being so close to Europe, Ethiopia’s an easy choice for someone looking for the true African experience, some adventure, and an overload of colourful, foreign culture and customs. But where does one begin with planning a trip to the largest country in the Horn of Africa? Well, after an exhilarating week working with The Luxury Collection, we can safely say that we’re going to have you covered from start to finish, and we’re going to answer all your questions about where to go and what to do. Shall we begin? Visiting Ethiopia – Where To Go...
With Winter fast approaching the northern hemisphere (and our love for Helsinki still as strong as the day we left it), we thought we’d do a fun comparison of things to do in the Winter months vs the Summer months. In case you were considering a quick break there this Winter (or you’re already scoping out locations for your Summer break in 2019), fear not – we have some of the best experiences outlined right here. So sit back, take a big sip out of that Moomin mug you hold dear to you, and let’s get into it: Winter vs Summer – The Best Experiences In Helsinki Let’s begin with the chilly months… Ice Dips and Warm Saunas - What To Do In Winter Saunas...
If you’ve ever wondered what time of year to visit Vermont, let us come right out and say that it HAS to be Autumn. The white steeples of the chapels and churches are popping in the charming towns of Manchester and Burlington, in perfect contrast to the nature show of burnt orange and red. The temperature is dropping, coating the Green Mountains with blankets of fog. Wafts of apple cider and maple syrup (ALL the maple syrup) fill the air around the cute stops on the side of the road (which are all dressed up for the Halloween festivities). Does it get any more quaint (or picturesque) than that? Renting a car should be mandatory, because there’s really no better way...
