It's an adventure
You’ve all seen the pictures, you’ve all heard the fuss and you’ve all dreamt of visiting here for as long as you can remember. This was me too until in July, on a family holiday with the parents, we headed for Sorrento & Positano and woweeee what a treat. (Positano post next to stay tuned!)…
Since leaving New Zealand in July 2016, Bryn and I have been to some epic European cities, seen some beautiful old buildings, learnt about ancient history & past wars and visited some incredible sites, but wow…nothing quite compares to the city of Berlin. Full of so much history, culture, nightlife & more, to say I…
Lake Como…Home to beautiful lakeside villages, Italian culture, food, wine and blissful relaxation. The perfect mix for a rad (and romantic) weekend getaway. Why? Because it’s freekin EPIC and freekin BEAUTIFUL too. Yes I’m talking about Lake Como…you know, the place where George Clooney has a home, where Brad pit enjoys his vacays and where…
A bucketlist dream for anyone: building a snowman, while its snowing. So… On one snowy day in the French Alps of Chamonix, Leah and I thought we’d set off and build a snowman of our own. We’d both never given this a go, only seen it in the movies, so we were stoked (and maybe even a little…
Thinking about a ski holiday in the French Alps? Want powder for days? Then look no further than Chamonix, Mont Blanc.

One of the most picturesque and charming villages in France…Lac Annecy, oh what a treat. Picture a lake that looks remarkably like lake Wanaka in the South Island of New Zealand, but instead located in the incredible French Alps. With the lakeside town full of winding canals, cute cobbled streets and pastel coloured houses, you can expect…
Follow my blog with Bloglovin Living more with less… A concept I’ve always loved but didn’t know how well I’d go, implementing it into my life. I had a pretty fortunate, relatively routine and safe home life, but I loved it. My amazing family and friends, my job, the weekends, the gym, life was easy. So…
In first few months away, the homesick feeling was lingering like a bad smell. Thoughts of friends and family moving through our heads at a hundred miles an hour. Trying to get into this “I’m a traveller” thing, isn’t always easy when things go wrong, but 6 months in, I can now confidently say, that these travel tricks we’ve picked up…
Spending 3 weeks in Montpellier definitely had us in a good routine, so the thought of vanlife again was sort of daunting to be honest. We got used to the easy access to a shower, a toilet, a washing machine and most importantly…a bed that we could stretch out in. Our mission was to get…
Back to the south of France we go. Leaving Barcelona completely satisfied with Spain, we found ourselves driving back towards the south of France, this time, to Montpellier. Staying with our homie Ben Botica, we got out of the van for the first time in over a month. How good does a bed feel you…
