“Do your research. Read labels. Buy less. Buy local. And support brands that care.” Christmas is coming, we’re in the countdown stage and already some enthusiastic neighbors have excessive neon lights and decorations blinding you from their sitting room windows. ‘Tis the season to be jolly (although slightly annoying). Christmas is less than 4 weeks…

BALI
This is definitely the hardest post to write about my travels, because it is indeed the last for now. BALI. What a place, it really really is a surfers paradise and a place I could quite happily spend a lot more of my time. Starting in a jungle we explored Ubud, Seminyak, Kuta, Canggu and…
Island Hopping in Indonesia
So with plans to go from Komodo to Flores and back, we didn’t quite make it all that way unfortunately. It’s a hard realisation when you find you’re running out of time in a country that needs sooo much of it to explore. But yes, our time was running low (and our money even lower…)…
Snaps from Sri Lanka
I remember flying into Sri Lanka and the first sight we saw was a country covered in massive palm trees (a sure sign of tropical paradise ???) We travelled from Colombo down the West coast to the Southern province all the way to Yala on the East and then back through the jungle center –…
Wild Rajasthan
Rajasthan – a wild desert state. We stayed in two separate cities, completely different and each breathtakingly beautiful. Jaipur – The Pink City Called the Pink City due to all the buildings within the walled historic centre painted a terracotta pink colour, this is one of the most beautiful cities I’ve seen. Not meaning to…
A taste of the Himalayas
We left Delhi and travelled North via train to a small hippy town at the bottom of the Himalayas called Rishikesh. This was probably the best decision we could have made and honestly turned our time around in India. WE LOVED RISHIKESH. We stayed at two different hostels during our time here and both were…
New Delhi & Agra
Snaps of the streets in New Delhi HOLI festival Holi is a traditional Hindu Festival celebrating the beginning of Spring as well as the triumph of good over evil. It is best known around the world for the coloured powder that people throw onto each other leaving everyone covered in colour by the end of…
Self Love Club
Hello from Sri Lanka (and a bandaged together Ellie) 👋🏼 I’ve been travelling for 3 months now and mostly it’s been pretty much plain sailing. Yes we’ve had ups and downs, things haven’t happened as we’d planned and we’ve had to miss out or not do things that we thought. There’s been the occasional missed…
Singapore: can you fall in love with a city?
Said to be “The cleanest city in the world,” Singapore is definitely a good contender for this title. Landing in Singapore felt like a completely different world to the tiny Thai airport we’d just left. Everything was so BIG and so clean. The first thing we did was grab a tourist MRT (underground/metro) card and…
Southern Thai Islands
Southern Thailand is a paradise in itself. It’s surprising how different it is to the North and Central parts, each offering something completely unique. The leafy forested North and metropolitan center of Thailand are worlds away from each other and even more so than the beachy idillic South. The islands we loved the most were…
