Magical Train Journeys Around the World – A Few Of My Favourites.

It may be a cliche, but sometimes the journey can be just as astonishing as the destination. I love catching trains. The ease, the ability to wander around whilst speeding through the countryside, the sweeping corners, the friendly people dispensing hot tea, staring out the windows for hours as the world chugs past, generous luggage allowances and the whistling engineers with grease smudges in their eye and rosy cheeks.

Travel Companions – the #TravelLinkup

Travel Companions – the #TravelLinkup

My travel journey – beginning in Singapore #travellinkup

My first ever taste of travel was probably the craziest if I’m honest. I had decided – despite only ever taking 2 internal NZ flights in my life – to pack up my life and move to the UK. On my own. Only knowing one person on the other side of the world. At twenty years old. So, so many things could have gone wrong. To temper things slightly, I booked a week layover in… View Post
