24 hour escapes form London

Mon, 26 Mar 2012 | By emily_mcd | Views [1220]

The Road to Lusaka

Thu, 22 Mar 2012 | By laura_jane | Views [405]

The only word I can use to describe the drive to Lusaka is this: Long. Tht'as it. I could leave it there, but I won't. I will tell you about it. About the goat I had to swerve and miss; about the millions of potholes along the way. About the whole ... Read more >

The Grand Slam

Sat, 17 Mar 2012 | By zapatosrojos | Views [1695]

The excitement is electric; I have heard ‘Delilah’ at least 10 times on the radio this morning and it is only 10.a.m. as I write! Every time the word Wales is said, it is drawn out with two syllables on the A and a slight crescendo. The dragon drapes ... Read more >

Sat, 3 Mar 2012 | By oliviadj | Views [374] | Comments [2]

8 kilos.  Yes, that is right.  You read correctly.  8 kilos is what my backpack weighed at the airport.  That is all I will have from home as I set off to start my 4.5 month adventure as a newly fledged backpacker.   My list - obviously, was rather ... Read more >

London!

Mon, 27 Feb 2012 | By courtneyjane411 | Views [474]

Hello! I've just spent 5 very full days in very busy London. It only took me five minutes of being here to remember how fast-paced and bustling this city really is. It's amazing, the only other city you can really compare it to is New York, and even ... Read more >

Sun, 26 Feb 2012 | By hermyam | Views [779]

Of course I knew on a theoretical level I'd have a lot to organise in order to take a trip abroad: accommodation, flights, car hire, travel insurance, money... oh, and the passport. My first passport, to be precise.  How does someone get to 41 without ... Read more >
