Lisbon, Portugal
The second destination of our trip to Portugal was the capital – Lisbon. We caught the train from Porto which was less then 20 euros for those under 25 (about 25 for those older), and took about 3 hours. Our hostel – Lisbon Lounge Hostel was a short walk from the train station we stopped at. This hostel…

Porto, Portugal
I am just back from a 6 day trip to Portugal with two friends. It was a beautiful break between deadlines for uni (although now I have to knuckle down again!). First stop was Porto, which was possibly my favourite city we visited. It was small but picturesque, a perfect long weekend getaway. We stayed…

Who says lupus can’t look good? HA..
Currently half way through a trip to Portugal! It is super sunny and warm so I’m applying suncream a few times a day, and I bought this “stylish” hat to protect me from the suns rays and avoid becoming ill ill, as the sun can leave me with extra fatigue and joint pain and I…

Nomad Songs
Every life, every moment deserves an awesome and fitting soundtrack. Although I think calling myself a nomad is a little pretentious, and not true, I haven’t really lived at “home” in a long time.

This past weekend we travelled 1 1/2 hours by train to Tarragona (about 16/17 euros return from Barcelona). Trains are not very frequent compared to Sitges so…

Geneva, Switzerland
When a friend asked me if I wanted to accompany her to a weekend in Geneva, how could I say no? I had never been before but I had been told Switzerland is insanely beautiful. So the day after we got back from Sevilla we met again in the airport, for a new adventure. Although cold enough…

Sevilla
I have visited and written about visiting Seville before, and just less than a year later I found myself retracing my steps in the city with new friends. We had just finished with exams so it was a welcome, relaxing break to chill and enjoy ourselves. We explored the cathedral, climbing to the top and exploring the…

Snacks around the World
The best thing in life is food. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t love eating, and trying new flavours can be one of the best experiences in life. Sometimes our travels are also defined by the food we try. When I first visited Brazil my dear Granny asked me to write her a letter about…

Lincoln Cathedral
I’ve wanted to visit Lincoln for years because I have heard it is super pretty. Well my expectations were matched! It is very ideal for tourists who love exploring pretty, winding streets full of tea rooms, cafes, shops and pubs. The eye catching landmark is the Gothic cathedral. Found after hiking up the only steep…
