Like all good porn (maybe? I don’t know), I’m spreading this (again, I’m assuming it spreads). I have distributed pictures of mine with the link to this blog written (rather nicely) on the back around London. It would be nice that if people found them, it would just be something different to their day, a … Continue reading
Osaka, Japan. A postcard from the parents’ World Cruise again. The architecture of Japanese buildings like this fascinate me. And those cherry blossoms… Japan is a place I’d love to go for the sheer cultural difference to anything I’m used to and anything I’ve seen before – it would definitely be a unique experience! Also, … Continue reading
Welcome to my new feature, Postcard Perfect. I love postcards. On my travels, I’ll be that person torn between the sunset skyline or the night skyline, chickening out of asking for a stamp in the local language, and searching for a postbox. Whether I send them, receive them or keep them as a memento for … Continue reading
How many of us really know our home city? Unless you’ve answered, “Yeah, I do, really well” and I’ve stumbled into an awkward situation here, I’ll take the people who answered, “Actually, not that well” and bond in our neglect. You may know some places to go, the general vibes of neighbourhoods, like I do, … Continue reading
Melbourne street art is pretty awesome. I was missing my old home of Melbourne a lot yesterday, so I thought I’d pay a tribute to the joy of walking down a street and stumbling across a mark someone’s left, a little insight into their mind, I like to think. Some is gritty, some elegant, but … Continue reading
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
Happy Anniversary! I hope you’re all watching the London Anniversary Games this weekend! It’s a year on to the day of the Opening Ceremony for the London 2012 Olympics. Guess what? I was there. Being lucky enough to go to the Opening Ceremony is something I can’t describe. But I will, because this is a … Continue reading
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
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
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
