During the 8 years I’ve been blogging the way readers find my blog has changed massively. Whereas I used to get a lot of blog traffic without much action on my part, in 2018 I’m working hard to make sure my content is seen. For any bloggers out there who would like to increase their … Read more
I’ve been dragging my heels about writing this post. Firstly, because I wondered if reviewing the year was more fun for the writer than the audience (Insta poll saw me stand corrected) and secondly, because 2017 left me feeling a bit meh. The biggest cause of my meh-ery, I think, is due to our move … Read more
I’ve written previously how I like to dress up when I fly. Even though I may feel crumpled and dishevelled inside, I prefer my outside appearance not to reflect this – especially if I’m checking into somewhere chic at the end of my journey. But while I wish to look chic I certainly want to … Read more
Are you a fan of under-the-radar destinations? Love places with a budding arts and foodie scene but not so many hipsters? Then we need to have a chat about my trip to Edmonton, the secretly stylish capital of Alberta. This surprising city in Western Canada has a hip mix of craft breweries, heritage signage and … Read more
Skiathos is the Greek Island you need to know if you’re after a chic yet understated holiday. This small island in the Sporades has a lust-worthy mix of beachfront bars, a white-walled old town and picture-perfect pools with a much more affordable price tag than some of the more Instagrammed Greek Islands.

As one of the major gateways between Australia and Asia/Europe, I’ve spent more time at Singapore Changi Airport in the last few years than I have at any other airport. Luckily it’s a world-class facility with heaps of options to keep passengers well fed, rested and entertained. If you’re transiting through Singapore Changi Airport these are … Read more
Although being a travel blogger has meant I’ve been able to call some awesome tropical locations my ‘office’, my recent trip to Bali was the first time I saw what happens when you team dreamy destinations with co-working spaces. This forward-thinking crop of co-working, and now also co-living, companies aren’t just offering a place to work but … Read more
I don’t know about you but even after all these years of travel I still get a frisson of excitement when I arrive at an airport. Aside from the anticipation of the upcoming trip I am quite happy whiling away a few hours shopping, indulging in spa treatments and sampling the local cuisine. (Pret counts … Read more
“Are you on a train?” asked my mum when she saw pictures of Justin and I in our Singapore Airlines Suites. Even I have to admit it felt carriage-like to be travelling in a compartment that had windows (with shutters!) and sliding doors. But this was far better than a train, for in less than … Read more
