With so many sights to see, foods to eat, stores to shop at, and must go places, Hong Kong was one of the most fun, expensive, and tiring trip I've been on. It being the biggest adventure my friends and I have gone on together, this is definitely one ... Read more >

We turned up back at the Mayview Glory in KL well before 6am. They were full so we couldn't check in till someone else checked out. Too tired to be imaginative and overwhelmed by the menu in the expansive cafe next door we guiltily settled for a ... Read more >

The flight touched down at Kuala Lumpur's Low Cost Carrier Terminal, or LCCT for short. No-one had mentioned that the timezone had changed so we thought the flight was an hour early, but in fact it was us who was out of kilter. It couldn't have ... Read more >

The beds are hard and lumpy, the only shower that works is lukewarm, breakfast is not included, all rooms open out onto the central, very loud courtyard where groups of Israeli backpackers sit and smoke endless cigarettes. But it does smell better ... Read more >

I'm out West, and I know it. If I didn't,
most signs, businesses, and products have a reference to the 'West' in them.
We're not East Coast and we're damn proud of it! I can't see that as a good
enough reason to shoot someone, but I offer many thanks ... Read more >

Well this is it, the last stop of our SE Asia adventures. It’s been one hell of a trip and what better way to finish it off than with one of the region’s most bustling cities. People warned us that Saigon was a bit overwhelming, but I found it easier ... Read more >

Hoi An is beautiful, but dangerous for anyone with bad spending habits. It's home to French colonial architecture, traditional houses, and Chinese assembly halls, all of which miraculously survived the war. Unfortunately, most people miss out on the ... Read more >

I can't stop going on about the shops!
We were staying in an area of Manila with no fewer than 13 malls.
THIRTEEN! They were the sort of malls I love too. A few international
stores, but mainly quirky (cheap!) local boutiques ... Read more >

After Belize our first stop was the border town of Chetumal. Well more of a city really, a huge urban sprawl, like everywhere else we’ve since seen in Mexico. On the plus side, the roads were good, accommodation was cheap, we found a good café, an ... Read more >

What is a fukubukuro
you ask? It is a “Lucky Bag” full of winter goodies from all your favorite
stores; what’s left over because in Japan New Years is a time of

Hi All, Here is a quick update on life in Singapour since my last post. I have gone back to a normal sleeping pattern although we've been going out a fair bit to celebrate the end of William's exams. Grocery shopping is more expensive than going to ... Read more >

PARAGUAY | Thu, 13 Nov 2008 | By eoghancito | Views [298]
A good few people had told us that Paraguay was a pretty hairy place and to watch out so we decided to bring nothing except for our passports, some cash, an emergency credit card and a camera with us. We hopped on an international (but curiously ... Read more >

We arrived here on Friday just before lunchtime. As we
approached, the pavements were filled with icey-cold metal café furniture, adorned
with well wrapped Melbournians chomping on pieces of premium meat and fine
cheeses encased in pastry parcels.... Read more >

I had a much needed lie-in this morning, no alarm, bliss! After spending some time online uploading photos I checked out the FAQ's for the tandem skydiving in the area and found to my disappointment that the maximum weight for a dive is 100kg's. Back ... Read more >
