Hunting the Northern Lights
My mom recently sent me an article from The West Australian, a newspaper from home, that stated seeing the Northern Lights or Aurora Borealis was in the top three things that Australians wanted to experience in their lifetime. It hadn’t always been numero uno on…
Europe… with Mom!
I was standing there nervously; I hadn’t seen her for close to a year, which was the longest time I’ve spent away from her since I was born. I shouldn’t have been nervous, but it had been ages and I wasn’t used to picking up…
Istanbul Review
Eight days in Istanbul was the perfect amount of time to explore the bustling city whilst also taking everything in slowly and getting a good feel for it. By the end of my stay in the largest city in Turkey, I felt like a local…
Photo of the Week – Lone Prayer
My favourite photo from the past week was taken inside the Sultan Ahmed Mosque, or Blue Mosque as it’s more commonly referred to. A lone man is seen praying inside this iconic mosque located in Istanbul, Turkey.
Travel Update – Baltics and Finland
Yes, I know. My blogging lately has been atrocious, but I promise that I’m back on track now. Usually I post photos or write reviews, but seeing as I haven’t blogged for 18 days, I’ll give you an update on where I’ve been and what…

Liechtenstein Love
Nothing that I write will do it justice, but here goes… I love Liechtenstein. I never thought I’d ever say that, but thanks to Sigi (Papa), Katharina (Mama) and especially Marco, I have so much love for the sixth smallest country in the world. Liechtenstein…
Photo of the Week – Zürich
I took a day trip to Bern (Berne, if you’re French) and Zürich yesterday, and both cities were so picturesque. I haven’t taken too many photos in the past week, but I really liked this one taken in Zürich.
Perfect Start to 2014
I had the perfect start to 2014. Is it a sign of a good year ahead? I certainly hope so. I didn’t meet the love of my life, I didn’t tick the final item off my bucket list, but I did spend the first day…
Photo of the Week – Après Ski
The best photo from last week was this beauty taken at Après Ski in St Anton, Austria. Beers and schnapps after a hard day of skiing!
