Where everybody knows your name…

For those of you who have travelled or travel long term, you’ll know what I’m talking about when I say it’s nice sometimes to just be somewhere with people who know you. I don’t mean someone you met last night at a backpacker bar, I mean people who really know you – good friends or family. [...]

Looking for trip ideas? Try Busabout…

The of you who’ve been following me on twitter or facebook may have seen my updates about my recent trip to Morocco. I recently took an 8 day trip of Marrakech & the Sahara Desert with the tour company Busabout. I can honestly say this was one of if not the best trips I have ever taken part [...]

Reasons to step outside the captial: Visit York…

With the London 2012 Olympics coming soon to the UK and many visitors expected to descend on the UK to watch and take part in it, I wanted to remind people that as cool as London is there is more to Britain than simply the capital city!

How to survive the souks of Marrakech!

For those of you who don’t know, the souks (markets) of Marrakech are situated right in the heart of the Medina (the area inside of the main wall), in a part of Marrakech that no cars or public transportation can fit up. You either have to walk or scoot about on a motorbike to make your way around, [...]

Flying to Marrakech? Check out flights with BMI…

Any Euro trip in my opinion should also venture a little further afield into North Africa. You’ll get to experience an entirely different continent, and a completely different culture to anything you’ll find Europe, and depending on where in the continent you’re based you could find the flight to somewhere like Morocco or Egypt is actually shorter [...]
