If you’ve come here expecting me to talk about a cultural experience, then you’ve come to the wrong place. Halong Bay in Vietnam is an amazing place to visit, of course, and I couldn’t recommend going enough. But the way I explored the area, and the way I think you should too, is far from […]

There is so much to do. Marrakech is a hectic city. I was dropped in the souks on the first night and it’s the biggest culture shock I’ve ever got. It was chaos, the streets made no sense and you end up getting lost. After a day or two of easing in, you fall in […]

Oh, the Thai islands. There is nothing better than hitting this area. Every couple of days, you’re stepping off a boat and getting your first glimpse of a new paradise. Well, for the best part anyway. The majority of the places I hit were amazing, some not so much, but if you are stuck for […]

Philippines is hands down the nicest country I’ve ever been to and if you’re planning on heading over, I’m extremely jealous.

Oh, Copenhagen is a wonderful city and I recently got to spend 24 hours there. I was luckily brought over to try out the new Carlsberg 0.0, which to be fair is pretty delicious for a non-alcoholic beer. We flew out on a Thursday morning and back Friday afternoon which pretty much left us with […]

What a beautiful city, aye. I was on my way to the Cliffs Of Moher with nowhere to stay and Limerick popped up on Booking.com. I’ve never been before, so why the hell not? We booked into The George Hotel and altered our directions on Google maps. We stopped in Dromoland Castle on the way […]
