A percentage of you – perhaps the majority – who’ve clicked on this post might have been attracted by the headline referring to three cute activities. Maybe they’re ones you’ve already done. Maybe they’re what you’d like to do in the future, or even planning on it. Another lot of you who clicked on this … Continue reading
So it’s another of those posts where I try to become at peace with London… or something like that. I’ve become tired with the city I’ve been born and bred in, and now I’m tired of being tired of it. Something has got to change, including my repetitious riddles. Travel and destinations aren’t always about … Continue reading
My parents must be confused. I was a grumpy little whatsit when I was younger on our holidays. And now I keep a travel blog (and pretty obsessive about it). We went on cruises every year since I was 10 years old (until about 18) and my biggest interest for a long time was making … Continue reading
Um… so, Blog Hop. It’s nothing to do with hip hop or the Sugar Hill Gang (sorry – for the irrelevance and the dismal word exchange), but it does have to do with is that good ol’ blogosphere. The idea is to answer questions on your writing habits and in the process get to know … Continue reading
Despite continuously refreshing the page yesterday when it somehow appeared to say ‘Kirst Over The World’, it wouldn’t go away: there I am, in amongst the other 6 shortlisted travel bloggers (and what lovely company to be in!) for the Cosmopolitan Blog Awards 2014.

It’s usually what I’m scrolling through when my boyfriend is telling me to get off my phone and properly focus on him – and I don’t see him often (since we do long distance), so that definitely takes this Instagram love into obsession category. These accounts … Continue reading
Cities are like relationships. I meet a place, get some first impressions – like I would a boy. I get to know a place, get some surprises or confirm my thoughts – like I would a boy. And just like I’ve gone and go through highs and lows with my personal relationships with boyfriends past … Continue reading
Rule number something-or-other of travel (or any type of) blogging: find a niche. Harness that niche. Now, is it just me or can this be slightly limiting? Don’t get me wrong, there are great bloggers who have slotted perfectly and naturally with theirs, and this post isn’t about slamming them – hats off to them, … Continue reading
Travel is essentially the centre of my life: my job is in travel, my passion is travel, this blog is travel and my boyfriend lives across an ocean, in Boston, USA (for anyone who doesn’t know, I’m from London, UK) and we met while living in Australia. I get a lot of different reactions when … Continue reading
