[instagram url=https://instagram.com/p/5bg8ltKZ9m/ width=500] I am sure that I lived in Barcelona in another life. I visited Barna for the second time and I felt the same joy as before, and the experience was only made better since I got to share it with one of my favourite people in the world. Not only…
Hostel and hotel reviews are generally not my thing on this blog, but I just had to write about this hostel in Marrakech! If you recall, I stayed in a few hostels during my last trip to Morocco — like the cheap but not particularly cheerful hostel (or maybe a little too cheerful for me)…
I’m going back to Martinique! For those of you who don’t know, I taught English in Martinique for 14 months over two years. It was a time filled with challenges (relationship and work-related), learning, growth, fun, and a place where I was probably my healthiest (read: I had a bangin’ bod and a fabulous tan).…
Out of habit, I started typing places I wanted to visit into a flight comparison site. Before I knew it, I had flights booked from London to Morocco to Spain to Italy to Croatia and back to London. With such little time left in Europe, why go back to Morocco and Barcelona when there are…
After Martinique, the next time I went surfing was a chilly November day in Westward Ho!. No, that is neither a grammatical error nor a reflection of how much fun I had. The place is called Westward Ho! and it’s the only place in the British Isles with an exclamation mark in its name. It…
With my Youth Mobility Visa expiring in four months, my time in London is coming to a close, and you all have been asking me what the future holds. Another visa to work abroad? Back to Canada? Digital nomad-ing it up around the world? What about you and bae? Well, over the last four years…
Just because a city isn’t on the tourist map doesn’t mean the place isn’t worth your time. In fact, that should only make you keener to go! Many major tourist destinations have their so-called second cities: places that are often just as interesting as the key location but overshadowed by its popular neighbour. Personally, I…
Anyone that knows me also knows that I love performing arts. There is something awe-inspiring about watching truly talented people do something they’re clearly very passionate about — and that I could never do! I’ve seen more than 25 plays (like Chimerica in London), musicals, ballets, dance (including Heartbeat of Home in Dublin) and circus performances in…
If there is one thing that people always ask me, it’s: “When is the best time to visit Iceland?” And honestly, there’s no right answer! I visited Iceland in late September and it was beautiful. The leaves had already begun to change colours, boasting bright reds and sunshiney yellows. If you want to see the…
On Saturday night I was out watching the Six Nations finals and a friend-of-a-friend asked me: What was the best experience you had in Morocco? It’s a tough question! I had so many different experiences in those six weeks of solo travelling around Morocco that it’s really hard to say. I met fabulous people, ate great food,…
