Getting Dirty in Pamukkale, Turkey

Posted on April 24, 2014 by Kirsten (Kirst Over the World) • 4 Comments

I love going through old pictures. Even way back when of travels I can only just remember – it’s always so fascinating to know you’ve seen amazing places through such young eyes. Last time I gave you the Pyramids of Egypt, and this time it’s an equally unique site in southwest Turkey: Pamukkale, the travertine … Continue reading →

What’s My Blogging Niche?

Posted on April 18, 2014 by Kirsten (Kirst Over the World) • 13 Comments

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 →

Things to learn from Cruises

Posted on November 5, 2013 by Kirsten (Kirst Over the World) • Leave a comment

Since I was 9 years old, I’ve been on cruises. Sometimes I still get embarrassed how awfully middle class this is. But it allowed me to see the world and waking up in a new country or city every day is still one of the greatest, overwhelming joys I have in my memory. Thing is … Continue reading →

10 tips: Studying abroad

Posted on August 3, 2013 by Kirsten (Kirst Over the World) • 3 Comments

Studying abroad is an incredible opportunity – I can’t express that enough. But it is stressful. It’s not just a fun ride, there’s a lot of organisation, paper work, and you might just be on verge of breakdown with a week to go, thinking, “Oh my god, what am I doing??” because you’ve been so … Continue reading →

A MASS Adventure

Posted on July 22, 2013 by Kirsten (Kirst Over the World) • Leave a comment

Hiking, white water rafting and paddleboarding. It’s all there, in the state of Massachusetts. Yes, I said Massachusetts. That small state in the North East, where some maps of the USA can’t fit ‘MA’ into the state, so have to direct a line out to actually let you know what it is. I would go … Continue reading →

North American Road Trip – Buffalo and Niagara Falls

Posted on July 14, 2013 by Kirsten (Kirst Over the World) • Leave a comment

From a city everybody overlooks to a sight everyone wants to experience. We stayed with Alan’s cousin, Kate, in Buffalo, and I will tell you, some parts are actually really lovely. You can appreciate the architecture of basically what look like big farm cottages lined up side by side in a residential area. Kate’s house … Continue reading →

Oh hey! :)

I’ve decided I’m making a comeback with this blog. And I mean business (but in that fun, not intensely serious kind of way). A lot has happened in the past year. I started this blog to talk about my semester abroad in Melbourne, Australia – well, obviously I’m not there anymore, but it was the … Continue reading →

Hey! Nice to meet you :)

I'm Kirsten, and I started this blog when I lived in Australia in 2012. I'm now frolicking my way around the world, taking in cities and experiences.

Everything to do with adventure, variety in the world and feeling alive can't be a bad thing, right?

I want to inspire you to go out and do the same thing - whether it's explore a new city or something like jump out of a plane! There's a lot of stuff to do out there so let me show you :)
