My surprise

We were heading to Koh Lanta, our final stop in the South of Thailand, which by the way there is a blog post about our time in Thailand part 2 coming soon. Mats out pretty great at planning things/working out the logistics for our trip...I should definitely do it more but he's just so good! …

My ‘beauty’ routine whilst traveling

My friend Lizzie asked me what my beauty regime was since being away and we both realised it would be a great blog post. It's totally something I questioned before coming out here and would have loved to have read, it certainly would have been useful to read and would have saved me a lot …

How to pick the perfect hostel for you

We've been traveling for over 2 months now and for the majority of the time we've been out here, we have been staying in hostels. It's fair to say we've had a few really horrible ones and a few really good ones. I think we've near enough nailed how to get the best hostel out …

Taking some ‘me time’

Travelling with your boyfriend/girlfriend/close friend or family member is great; you're totally comfortable around one another, you know each other so well and you'll more than likely have lots in common. I know for certain I would not be enjoying my travels half as much if I was traveling alone/without Mat, and not only because …

A few of my favourite activities in Northern Vietnam

Just a short one this week to share a few of my favourite things that we've done in Vietnam so far. There's so much to see and do we're constantly on the go and there's never a day where we are stuck for things to do. I'd be here forever telling you all everything we've …

Going somewhere and not giving it a chance

We recently came to Vietnam from Laos after spending just a week there. We absolutely loved Thailand which set the bar very high for Laos. It took us 2 long long days of traveling down the Mekong River before arriving into Luang Prabang, and when we arrived we didn't hit it off to a good …

My Moon Cup

I'm really keen to write this post, to get rid of the 'period shame' that's so apparent in our society. Since when did it become okay to make women feel embarrassed or disgusting for having a period. FYI, eggs are quite literally chicken's period, and you quite literally would not exist if it were not …

Thailand so far

We started our travels in Bangkok, which was certainly an experience, the heat, the humidity, the chaos, the scams...it's definitely one we won't forget! After 3 days there we were very excited for a change of scenery and a slightly less intense environment. We took a 10hour bus to Chiang Mai, which was actually fine …
