Howdy all! Work has started to kick in, very busy workwise this week so will do my best to keep a-blogging but it won't be so easy. Today's blog is about travelling songs. I have a dedicated 'genre' on my ipod for travel, and I wanted to share with you my top five from that …

Enough said I think. Truly one of the most amazing places on Earth.
Australian Citizenship Ceremony
Being back in Australia, I finally get to catch up with so many friends I’ve missed over the last 2-3 years since my travelling began followed by life in Japan. And, one of my closest friends, Susy, just received her Australian citizenship, and being back in the country I was able to attend. Firstly – …
Ruminations on Travel Blogging
‘Write a travel blog’ they said! ‘Share your experiences with loads of people’ they said. Actually, I started travel blogging back in 2005, right at the very end of the year before I left in early 2006 on my trip. Actually, nobody told me to, I just thought it would be a way to keep …

Slovenia is a wonderful mix of history and nature. Ljubljana is an amazing capital with a castle, rivers, gorgeous …
Sunday Spotlight – Lome, Togo
Let’s be honest, Lome is probably NOT at the top of your list of places you want to see in your lifetime. Togo is a small, and very thin country in West Africa, between Ghana and Benin, and although it’s pleasant enough, there just isn’t a lot of reasons to head there. BUT, if you …
Write a Travel Diary!
When I first set out on my first independent trip, last century in 1999, I had seven months of travel ahead of me and I wanted to remember what I had done and where I had been. Simplest way? Write a travel diary! So I bought a nice big black hard cover book with lines …
