My RTW trip was planned out. I knew when I was doing things, when I was going to buy my plane ticket and my backpack etc and lastly when I was finishing up at my work. This is the same for the majority of current #RTWsoon planners as well. Now Jeannie from nomadicchick.com was in the same basket, that was until her work decided it was time to lay her […]

My First Solo Day
Getting lost is all a part of backpacking so it was natural I would get lost trying to find my hostel after exiting the train station on my first solo day alone in Europe.

Who knows what the evening will bring, my guess lots of sleep. I’ll give you […]

Now I’m not just mentioning Andi because she got her clothes […]
Why Do You Travel?
I’ve not looked back at my decision to travel anywhere near as much as I have in the last week. After all I’ve quit my job, you know that place you go for 8+ hours a day and at the end of the week they give you money. Not only that but I will be saying goodbye to all of my friends and family for who knows how long. Oh […]
