Table Mountain, the most iconic landmark in South Africa, dominates the skyline of Cape Town and looks over the entire city like an older brother. It’s impossible not to be captivated by the strange, flat-topped mountain that seems to be so out of place in the city. It isn’t until you get to the top …

As a travel blogger I try to make the most out of every trip I take. I take photos of EVERYTHING, take notes of important facts, I visit every important monument or tourist hot spot, I try all the foodie delicacies and chat to all the locals for an 'insider’s opinion'. I do everything the …

Just before Christmas I had what can only be described as the best early Christmas present possible. It wasn't that big bottle of Coco Mademoiselle or those leather boots that I've been hinting for (although I must have been a good girl because Santa brought me those too), it was a 10 day trip to …
Whilst in Borneo, we spent a night on Seligan Island, the largest of three islands which make up The Turtle Islands which are on the border between Borneo and the Philippines. Seligan Island is absolutely beautiful, a perfect island paradise with white sand, clear sea, bright flowers and palm trees. Unfortunately it rained from pretty …

Almost everyone who visits Bangkok ends up going to Tiger Temple and most people aren't entirely sure how they feel about it.
Guy Fawkes Night, or Bonfire Night as we now call it, is one of those really weird British traditions that makes no sense to any other nation than our own. So, what is Bonfire Night? In a nutshell, Bonfire Night occurs on the 5th of November and every community wrecks a patch of their park …
Ocean Park or Disneyland. Ocean Park or Disneyland? This was a tough choice while we were in Hong Kong but finally opted for Ocean Park to see the pandas. We arrived early and rushed in quickly to be the first in the panda enclosure. This was a very good move because within 15 minutes it was …

'The Peak' is one of Hong Kong's biggest tourist attractions. You ride a worryingly old tram up a worryingly steep mountain 552m high. The tram was built in 1888 and has barely been altered since; apparently this is meant to be part of the attraction to riding it. It felt as though the tram was almost vertical at times …
Bilbao’s Guggenheim is undoubtedly the most extraordinary structure I’ve ever seen in my life. It’s the kind of building you can walk around and around all day and still stare up in amazement and insist that you take a few more photos. I came home Bilbao with over 150 photos of the Guggenheim alone so …

It’s a reserve in Surat Thani, southern Thailand, and has some of the country’s best preserved jungles and wildlife. A huge artificial lake was created …
When going on safari, the thing that everyone is itching to see is the big 5. These are: Lions Leopards Elephants Buffalos Rhinos They're named 'the big five' because early hunters regarded them as the most dangerous animals to hunt. While I was in South Africa I spent three days staying at Thornhill Safari Lodge …
At first, I wasn’t sure if I wanted to visit an animal rehabilitation centre in South Africa. It was promoted on the fact that you get to pet a cheetah and after visiting Tiger Temple in Bangkok, where you get to pet tigers until your heart is content, I’m really not sure how I feel …

Last week I wrote about how Christmas in Sydney was a total let down and I was really disappointed. Thankfully, New Year's Eve in the city was a million times better and possibly even the best night of my life! That's a bold statement I know but it really was amazing. There are a couple …
