I mentioned in my last post that Cafeyate was like geographical porn but as we’ve moved up through Uyuni and the Andes and into Bolivia, it has just got better and better! Warning: there are a LOT of pictures in this post! After the disaster of the landslide, we had to change our route and […]
The Unplanned Return to Salta…
For those of you who know me well, you’ll know that I don’t enjoy long bus journeys etc so I wasn’t particularly looking forward to the 12 hour bus ride to Chile but this 12 hour journey turned into 30 hours of drama and an experience I’ll never forget. We left our hotel in Salta […]
Salta City
After Buenos Aires, we flew to Salta for a few days. It feels like it’s been quite a short visit but we’ve definitely taken a big step away from the European influenced part of Argentina. We arrived early afternoon and settled into our hotel. It was a cute, family owned hotel with a small pool […]
¡Buenos Días Buenos Aires!
Stop number 1 of our around the world adventure has not disappointed. At first, Buenos Aires felt to me like it could be any other Spanish city but as time went on, we got a bit deeper in and saw the true side to South America’s cultural capital. Our flight here was a bit mental. […]
Off we go!!
Day 1 of our 134 day journey starts now! It’s been a manic few days planning routes, sorting out packing lists, banks etc etc but we’re finally in Heathrow airport, with a glass of wine in hand ready to go!! Follow my blog for mine and Ammun’s travel diaries for 4.5 months around South America […]
#TravelWhereYouLive
Recently, on Instagram, I came across the hashtag #TravelWhereYouLive and it inspired me to write this blog post. I’m currently living at home in Buckinghamshire, England, dreaming about hiking in South America and food in Asia and cocktails on soft sandy beaches but I quite often forget to think about how nice it is to […]
Photoblog: The Vatican City
Although Ancient Rome was around well before the arrival of Christianity, the word “Vatican” was used even then to describe the area that is now The Vatican City (officially the State of Vatican City). The most obvious thing that people know about the Vatican City is that it is the home of the Pope and […]
When in Rome…
As the gloomy British winter looms outside, I can’t help but dream about one of the best cities I’ve ever visited: Rome. I went to Rome in Summer 2015 with my favourite human in the would: my mummy! Neither of us had ever been to Italy before but always wanted to and as I […]
NTU Graduation 2016
Anna the graduate… I know, not so much of a travel blog this one. But I guess I’m taking it back to what I originally made this blog for: keeping my family in the loop of what I’m doing as they can’t follow me around like sheep! (…and they probably wouldn’t want to anyway!) As […]
Interrailing: Florence and Pisa
My love for Italy continues. My blog begins like a dramatic action movie. 3 girls on a mission to get from Venice to Florence. The scene starts at 7.30am waiting at the wrong water bus stop. A man approaches. He tells us to go on the other side where we can already see the boat […]
