I’m 55 years old (yes I’m getting old), and I first learned to ski in Australia when I was sixteen years old as an agile teenager. Firstly, YES, they do have snow in Australia! Secondly, I’ll let you in on a secret – I used to be OK, but I lost my nerve, and now […]
Two years ago Explorason and I went to enter the country of Macedonia in our UK registered vehicle, but when we passed the second border check they tried to charge us an incredible amount for the vehicle to enter, so we had to turn around and leave, and we went to Kosovo instead. Having now […]
We’ve been traveling the world now for over four years, and since 2014 there have been a couple of items that have traveled the world with us. These are our Coco-Mat Aromatherapy Pillow-sachets. Lavender-filled little flat cotton bags go under our pillows and give us each a relaxing night’s sleep. Since they originate from Athens […]
As the snow forms a white blanket and lays softly on the grassy roadside edges, I gaze out of the window and realize that I am experiencing a dream come true. Just over two years ago we visited Meteora in October of 2014, and I have always wanted to return to see it when it […]

The Travelling Stranger In Istanbul Turkey or An Angel In Istanbul? I drove into Istanbul for the first time in my life at peak hour – guided by a GPS that could not be trusted. Dusk was creeping into the afternoon sky, and the voice that guided me from this device instructed me to turn […]
It’s my birthday – I can’t believe I am turning 55. How did that happen? I really don’t know, but I want to celebrate it in a new country, with new memories to start a new year, so we chose the tiny islands of Malta as country 69 on our world trip. And OH MY […]

We’ve just spent the best part of ten hours on buses coming from Melaka to Penang. Not one bus, but three buses!
