Travels 2016: Kuala Lumpur
It’s probably difficult to believe, but after cold and rainy Hanoi, we were very much looking forward to some tropical sunshine in Malaysia’s capital city. It was a flying visit really, a stop in between Vietnam and Bali, and a homecoming for my travel buddy who is half-Malaysian, but we tried to pack as much […]
Travels 2016: Hanoi
It’s funny looking back, because I definitely though that things couldn’t get more chaotic, busy, noisy and overwhelming than Bangkok was when we first began our travels. Oh how wrong I was. Cue Hanoi. If arriving in Bangkok was like a dusty and dry sandstorm, then Hanoi was a full-on monsoon of the senses, a […]
Travels 2016: Laos Part 1
Part 1: The Mekong River → Pak Beng → Luang Prabang. Sabaidee from Laos! Having spent a week in this beautiful country, it’s safe to say that we have fallen very much in love with Laos: with its mountains and its rivers, its people and its cities. We started our journey through Laos at the border […]
Travels 2016: Chiang Mai
We boarded a night train from the busy Bangkok central train station, unsure of what to expect but imagining the worst. Thankfully, our night train experience was whole lot better than we could have possibly dreamed and we arrived twelve hours later in Chiang Mai, the second largest city in Thailand. I have to point […]
Travels 2016: Bangkok
Sawadika! Welcome to the first instalment of my posts about my three month travels around South East Asia, Australia and New Zealand. It’s so exciting to finally be writing about it after so many months of planning! To try and describe this wonderful city in one word is a bit difficult. It’s simultaneously old and new, […]
Falling for Autumn
Today I stepped outside and it smelt like autumn. And so begins my love affair with this beautiful season. There’s something magical about autumn that has captivated me for as long as I can remember. Maybe because it’s the season of my birthday (October 1st and don’t you forget it), maybe it’s the transition from […]
Returning to Yorkshire
Coming back to Yorkshire was like a homecoming for me. I lived in York for three years whilst at university and after a year away, it’s fair to say that I was missing – as the people of Yorkshire proudly put it – God’s own country. I can’t quite explain how much beauty and culture […]
A Day in Brighton
Can we just talk about how amazing Brighton is? It’s like a magical land somewhere at the bottom of the country which doesn’t feel like it even belongs with the rest of the UK. The weather was warm, I had a Saturday off and I was with my favourite travel buddy. We wandered along the beach and […]
Manchmal Träum’ Ich Nur Von Dir
After having panic-bought flights as soon as I had arrived back in the UK, returning to Germany two months later was somewhat of a surreal experience. I had to take two weeks off from my new job with raised eyebrows of you were just there for seven months, why are you going back? And it was a good […]
Falling in Love with Prague
So I think this one will be short on words, but long in pictures. My trip to Prague was perhaps the least planned and organised one yet, and I can’t pretend that I wasn’t a little stressed out just before (“What currency do they even have in the Czech Republic?!”). Honestly, however, I fell in […]
