There’s just something about visiting Disney with someone who has never been. The look on their face when they walk down Mainstreet USA and see Cinderella’s Castle for the first time is truly a beautiful moment. I don’t think people really understand that Walt Disney World is not just for kids. Adults can enjoy the … More Twinsie Adventure: WDW – Magic Kingdom
Part Two After our awkward night out, Chloe and I were awake surprisingly early the next morning. Hearing nothing outside the door, we wondered if Michael was up too. Chloe tip toed around the house and he was gone. No note left behind and no text message sent, he was just….gone. Weird, it’s barely 9am. … More Twinsie Adventure: Halifax, Nova Scotia
Part One Our first stop on Chloe’s Canadian adventure is my birthplace! When Chloe and I were celebrating Canada Day in London, England all those years ago I had told her I was born in Halifax. She decided right then and there that if people were to ask her in the pub that day where … More Twinsie Adventure: Halifax, Nova Scotia
I don’t know if you know this about me, but I am a HUGE fan of Steve Irwin! While growing up, I use to throw on Animal Planet and watch The Crocodile Hunter for hours. I just loved his sense of adventure and his passion for conserving wildlife. It is no surprise that my one … More Crikey! The Australia Zoo
My next stop on this Australian adventure took me to Airlie Beach. Chloe had booked us into one of the hostels on the main drag. We checked in and went to our rooms. I mean I’ve stayed in some pretty bad hostels before, but this one was pretty gross. If we hadn’t already gotten some … More Airlie Beach and Then Some
We’ve left Auckland, NZ for the Gold Coast in Australia. Chloe and I were meeting her friends Baz and Keil there to have a weekend of fun! I met Baz and Keil when they were in London back in 2012 while Chloe and I were living there. Baz is from Australia and Keil is from … More Low Key Gold Coast Vibes
We arrive in Auckland for a brief stay before heading back to Australia. The accommodation of choice in this city was AirBnb. We could have very well stayed in a hostel, but our AirBnb was in a very, very good location and the price wasn’t all that bad in comparison to a hostel. It was … More A quickie in Auckland
Leaving Matamata behind, we arrive in Rotorua. I was warned about this place smelling of sulphur. So bad they said, I would want to puke. Well…FYI, it’s not that bad at all. When getting off the bus I didn’t even notice a smell to be honest. We checked into our hostel, Rock Solid. They are … More Rotorua — What’s that smell?
Arriving in Auckland, I have no idea what day it is anymore! Flying into New Zealand has pushed us three hours ahead and I’m already confused… It was about 530am (local time) when we landed. Our bus to Matamata leaves at 745am, so we had plenty of time to kill….or so we thought. Customs ended … More A Hobbit’s Tale
Today we arrive in Melbourne, or as some of the locals, and friends who have lived here, call Melbs. Everyone said this was a ‘must see’ sort of city. I was excited to see what it was all about! I hadn’t really done any research into Melbourne, so I didn’t have an agenda here. The … More Melbourne….Melbs….Meh
