Today’s post was written by Femke Gow. Namibia, Africa, is located on the south-west coast and stretches across a vast landscape of natural beauty. The Etosha National Park is found within Namibia’s borders and is home to a number of elephants who stroll around the shrubs and grassy plains located here. These animals have gradually […]

(Above: How I felt with my journey all planned out!) Less than a week ago I was in Poland, about to depart for Russia, when I made the spur of the moment decision to take some time out from this planned adventure to go on a spontaneous one. This may sound crazy to some people, […]

Today’s post was written by Femke Gow. If you’re looking for diversity, BC Canada is without a doubt the place to be. I have come to believe that there is not a single activity that can’t be done somewhere in the British Columbia; from surfing to backcountry skiing, to afternoon tea in a floral display […]

I had my first taste of Poland these past few days in the city of Warsaw. I wasn’t sure what to expect from this city. Having only had 4 days there, it’s impossible to really get to know a city, let alone a country, but during my little taster visit this is what struck me […]

This is piece of random graffiti art I came across in Berlin. It displays the technique of wheatpasting, which allows artists to prepare their work at home first, before sticking it to the wall.

I visited Berlin earlier in the year for the first time, and came away from the city feeling like I hadn’t seen nearly enough as what I would have liked. Today marks the last day of my 2nd visit, and yet again I feel like there is so much more that I would like to […]

Todays post was written by Femke Gow. Located just north of Portugal, Galicia’s exotic coastlines and white sands compose what are known as the Cies Islands, the Islands of the Gods. Although this is a massively sweeping statement, these islands are visually nothing short of God’s creations. The most popular destination for tourists is the […]

This may sound like a harsh question or point to make, but after experiencing a screaming baby for the entire 4 hours of my trip down from Edinburgh to London, followed by 2 screaming toddlers sitting 3 rows behind me on the following journey from London to Paris (all by train), I feel I am justified for at least […]

I embarked on my largest and most adventure-filled trip to date on Saturday. The first part of which will see me travelling from Edinburgh to Beijing without taking a single flight. After months of talking about it, a few unexpected jaunts through Europe in the mean time, and much umming and ahhing about whether I […]
