Expat life in Hanoi, at its worst... The sky hangs heavy, drooping to touch the tips of lonely towers. A jacket, a waterproof, a mask, a helmet, visor down, and still the air gets in. Dreaming of a home where no one would usually rather be for the weather... The wind...

Living in Vietnam, you won’t get very far without renting, buying or borrowing a bike. Whether you go for a giant automatic that resembles a spaceship, a classic traveller Win or Wave or something in between, you quickly become accustomed to zipping down tiny alleys...

In this series we are outlining our tips for moving to Vietnam, to help you get set up and settled in as quickly and easily as possible. Our first week has almost seemed too easy and we are already loving expat life in Hanoi! In this post I'm going to talk about...

I’ve given you the lowdown on which towns Oli and I enjoyed the most along the Annapurna Circuit, towns we think shouldn’t be missed and now I want to describe a couple of the day trips and detours that shouldn’t be left out either. The circuit alone is stunning...

Korea Journey Handbook Our first guidebook is now available to buy!   After a year teaching, travelling and blogging in South Korea, we have a lot of passion and knowledge for travel within the country and decided to put that to good use by creating our own...

You know a destination is a great one when you can still fall in love with it even in the worst weather. With only a day and a half of sunshine over our five day weekend at the beginning of June, Sokcho became that place for us. There was just some thing about that...

It’s probably obvious by now how much we loved our time on the Annapurna Circuit. From the simplicity of life upon it, to the charm of the little towns we stayed in, the Himalayas had us fully and completely besotted. And to top it all off it is ridiculously good...

This week we may have found the most idyllic of weekend trips from Hanoi. A place so beautiful the sweat on your face will be mixed with happy tears. A place so tranquil you will forget there is traffic in Hanoi. A place so devoid of tourists you will consider not...

I know this topic is rather late seeing as I've been going on about Spring's arrival constantly over on Facebook and Instagram, but we had such pretty pictures and great ideas from our Winter adventures over the last few months we thought it was a shame not to share...

My coverage of our adventures with vanlife in Europe has been spotty to say the least. We've been through Germany, Austria and Northern Italy and experienced an overwhelming amount of beauty. With all the exploring and our work commitments, it's been difficult finding...
