Hoorah! Last week was a good week, not least because I was awarded for the Liebster Award not once, but twice. I know two times, in 1 week, how cool is that! I feel very lucky to have received the Liebster Award firstly because it is a peer-nominated award, i.e. bloggers bestow it on […]

Fraser Island is the world’s largest sand island and lies off the coast of Queensland in north-eastern Australia. Originally formed by oceanic and great wind currents that brought vast quantities of sand up the coast from as far south as Antarctica, this huge sandy mound is now home to a diverse array of natural wildlife […]
A key part I’ve found in actually being a successful budget backpacker is a little organisation.

There are plenty of coastal hotspots to choose from in this Land Down Under, but personally I really think the Sunshine Coast of Australia is hard to beat.

Let’s be honest ladies, hiking boots are never going to be fashion item number 1! They are, however, always going to be incredibly useful, especially when travelling the globe. From Nepal to New Zealand, Namibia to Norway, womens hiking boots are a good, practical choice of footwear in all sorts of situations. So, if […]
