Canggu, Bali, Indonesia; Today I went to my first yoga class of this Bali trip at a place called Jungle Room. Situated in the luscious green surroundings of Canggu, with views of the jungle river and forest at every turn, Jungle Room is not just a yoga studio, it’s an Air BnB property too. And … More Day 51 in South East Asia – Bali, You Need To Up Your Weather Game
Kampot and Kep and everywhere in between, Cambodia: They say bad luck comes in threes and that Karma plays a huge part in dishing out good and not so good things. If bad luck does come in threes then today was definitely the end of my losing streak and Karma could suck a fat one. … More Day 35 in South East Asia – Karma, You’re a Beautiful Bitch
Kampot, Cambodia: The last few days were a bit of a depression-induced interlude for me. The rain in Cambodia did not sit well with my desire for sunshine, and my outwardly cheery disposition became slightly hampered by my internal alter ego, an alter ego I like to call ‘the mood-hoover’; the hoover that only usually … More Day 34 in South East Asia – I Don’t Care What The Weatherman Says…
Siem Reap and Kampot, Cambodia: Before I write about my trip to Angkor Wat on day 30, I’m skipping forward, as I feel I need to share with you the struggles of the last few days, mainly because the taste is still bittersweet and the feelings evoked on days 31 and 32 are still raw; … More Days 31 and 32 in South East Asia – It’s Not Always Sunshine and Lollipops
Siem Reap, Cambodia: Last night I really let my hair down by drinking two wines and two beers! This morning, naturally, I felt hungover. No, actually, that’s a bit of a lie; I didn’t feel hungover, I felt a little groggy. There’s a difference (but not by much). Anyway, my new lightweight drinking status had … More And On The 29th Day, She Rested
Vang Vieng, Laos: The rain is relentless. RELENTLESS. When I went to bed last night, in my comfy little bungalow, views of the mountains in the background, my mind peaceful and at ease, the rain was heavy. And it did not stop. Not once. I went to sleep with the sound of pounding rain drops … More Day 24 in South East Asia – Raining On My Parade
Vang Vieng, Laos: After the disappointing start to my time in Vang Vieng, and after concluding it was bottom of the barrel dumpsville, I kind of thought it was best to give it another chance. I’m all about second chances (under the correct circumstances, of course), and decided that having a look at VV during … More Day 23 – Gangnam Style, Saving Graces, and a Change of Pace.
Yesterday I heard the awful news that a terrorist attack had occurred in Manchester. Yesterday, I read how so many innocent people had lost their lives. Yesterday, I cried watching the news; the stories, the vigils, the Facebook updates, the videos. Yesterday I phoned my friend to see if she was ok. Yesterday, I stood … More England, I’m coming home.
I’ve been in Australia almost four months now, and in Melbourne just over a month, and I’ve been thinking. A lot. So I thought it was about time I wrote something about what’s been happening in my wonderfully exciting life since I left the delights of Marvel Loch and WA. Following a successful and enjoyable … More To Be A Melburnian Or A Mancunian: Are They One And The Same?
In coming to Western Australia during the height of winter, I thought I’d made the ultimate choice; I thought I would’ve hit the jackpot in regards to the weather, as everyone knows Perth and a lot of WA are renowned for being hot all the time, right? Erm…WRONG! To say I have been unpleasantly surprised … More It’s Cold: Day Three in Marvel Loch
