Battle of the Beaches (Sydney edition)

Battle of the Beaches (Sydney edition)

Posted on October 1, 2013 by Kirsten (Kirst Over the World) • Leave a comment

The oldest, most ancient of the age old questions (ok, maybe not)… Bondi or Manly? For me, this is so startlingly obvious I could dance and skip up and down Manly beach from sunrise to sunset. So I guess I’ve given it away? Everyone raves about Bondi. So naturally I’m sceptical about it. I felt … Continue reading →

Battle of the Beaches (Melbourne edition)

Posted on September 22, 2013 by Kirsten (Kirst Over the World) • 2 Comments

Melbourne isn’t known for its beaches (all the more reason to dive a little deeper), but the wonderful world of Oz is. When I lived there, I was eager to explore what was on offer in the city. I knew I couldn’t surf in Melbourne (booooo!) but I took great memories from its beaches.   … Continue reading →

Rooftop Cities

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

It’s no secret that I love rooftop bars – cocktail in hand, looking out to the bright lights of any city is something that will always give me a little chill (out of excitement, but maybe from a breeze too). They’re not even just for drinking (see Bussey Building below). I recently went to two … Continue reading →

Narwhal? Nowhere? No, NORWICH!

Posted on July 25, 2013 by Kirsten (Kirst Over the World) • 2 Comments

Norwich, England, isn’t a place many people have heard of or at least not spent their free time dreaming about. When I said to people that I went (boohoo, past tense) to University in East Anglia, they stared at me blankly. “Norwich?”, I try, to at least be visualising the same region and convince them … Continue reading →

London’s calling (and it’s about to go crazy)

Posted on July 24, 2013 by Kirsten (Kirst Over the World) • Leave a comment

Seeing as this is the city I’ll be spending most of my time from now on, it seems a bit cruel to leave it out. It may be my hometown (and one that I’ll damn well proud of being from) but you still find travel excitement and adventure within it. Don’t underestimate the places right … Continue reading →

Out and about with the Aussies

Posted on May 14, 2012 by Kirsten (Kirst Over the World) • Leave a comment

Because I’m bogged down by work, I’m going to write another blog entry. No, that doesn’t make any logical sense, but I can’t resist a little bit of procrastination, and I wanted to share some of the stuff I’ve been up to before I become a hermit. This post will mainly be pictures – wouldn’t … Continue reading →

Thongs, Macca’s and Goon

G’day, how you going? Aussie tip for a foreigner number one: don’t answer “by bus”, they don’t want to know how you’re getting somewhere. In true confusing Aussie style, they want to know how you are. And here’s a personalised tip for anyone who’s like me. People who know me will that know I, as … 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 :)
