Last week on #TRLT we chatted about authenticity. When travelling, it’s easy to become too focussed on the destination and forget the authentic experience you’re missing out on. When travelling to cities and sites with a heavy tourism factor, something in the mentality of both locals and visitors […]
Last week on #TRLT Twitter chat we discussed National Parks. Travellers all over the world came together to share their best stories and travel photos. I’ve trekked National Parks the world over and not one has disappointed me. Through the U.S.A’s Zion, Yellow Stone and The Grand Canyon […]
Fashion is a personal billboard that you share with the world. Around the world it paints a picture of their life, their work, their religious belief and their status. Without expressing a word you can deem where a person lives, what they do for a living, where they […]
We couldn’t have picked a more top-end resort to spend the middle week of our one-month Caribbean extravaganza getaway! Considering we both shook on and agreed to do absolutely nothing on our honeymoon but eat and relax and get to know each other, Nevis was the perfect island […]
I have seen so much and yet there is so much more I haven’t. We tried to get into Iran while we were in the area back in 2006 but were not able to get visa’s 🙁 . Although Ammon did finally get a visa and visit a […]
As an avid traveler, I am always after the real “gems” of the world. Most often, I try to discover places few who came before me have. I’m searching for the real memorable, the spiritual, the heavy impact landmarks. I avoid sticking to the mainstream, overhyped, crowded travel […]
India is a whirl of magic and chaos. Aromas, delicious and putrid hit you like a brick in the face. Colours bright, bold and glittering wash over you in a wave as you walk the streets. Traffic is an ever-changing, waving sea around you. Tuktuks, pedestrians, rickety bicycles, […]
LAST WEEK on Twitter we explored the topic of EXPLORATION on “The Road Less Travelled” (#TRLT). I spent four years, between 2005-2009 with a 40lb backpack strapped to me, travelling The World via buses, trains, tuk-tuks, camels, horses, hitchhiking and even “highjacking” a Dutchman in his self-built overland […]
Last week on Twitter we had a big chat on the topic of SMALL TOWNS on “The Road Less Travelled” (#TRLT). When all of you hear the words, “travel destination” I know what comes to your mind; Big cities like Paris, London, Rome, Tokyo, Cairo, Amsterdam. Wonders like […]
Hungary is one of the European countries that doesn’t often pop up in the travel chats or in conversations. It is one of the road less travelled countries in Europe but it certainly deserves a visit. I regret only staying few night there, but we so much enjoyed […]
Last week we had a great #TRLT’s Twitter Travel chat on ROADS. Get ready to enjoy a stimulating and sometimes shocking ROAD PHOTO ESSAY that will take you around the world while you lounge in the comfort of your sofa! You’ll welcome the wind in your hair and […]
Last week we had a great #TRLT’s Twitter Travel chat on LESSONS. Having traveled to 110+ countries over the past 12 years, I have learned an abundance of lessons by talking to locals, experiencing cultures first hand and most importantly, by making mistakes! The kind of life-changing knowledge you […]
Gabon was an amazing experience and has so many intense and incredible memories, some of the best material I simply MUST keep top secret for the book series! I loved visiting countries I’d never heard of before because it’s like a a piece of the world map lights […]
We made it safely to Saint Lucia, country #109, and had a gorgeous 45 minute drive with a private chauffeur who was extremely friendly, informative and enthusiastic about his country. He took us to the steps of the Ladera Resort where we were welcomed with smiles, cold […]
When people think of Ethiopia they may imagine poverty, barren earth and children with flies crawling around their eyes. We travelled overland through Ethiopia from Kenya into Sudan. The Ethiopia we saw over three weeks was full of big smiles, gorgeous, green and mountainous landscapes. We camped in […]
