THE DRIVE FROM NEWHAVEN TO TORQUAY is a long one—it took nearly six-hours. We didn’t have time to stop along the famous Jurassic Coast, nor would we have wanted to—Sunday no day to compete with the locals on their day out. But we did ... Read more >

THE ENGLISH LOOK UPON BRIGHTON THE WAY my New Jersey friends revere Seaside Heights. In truth, neither stacks up well against the “real” beaches of the world—but you make do with what you’ve got. We visited Brighton not to sit ... Read more >

TO BE SURE, THERE ARE HIDDEN GEMS to be discovered in the Southeast. The town of Deal, for example. It isn’t nearly as old as Canterbury nor were poems written about it. In fact, Deal in the 17 th Century was intentionally kept on the down-low—... Read more >

KATE'S AIRBnB IN OXFORD WAS HER FAMILY HOME. It has everything that we could want— plus a fabulous garden! It’s actually in Crowley, an easy mile’s walk from Oxford University and not far, as it happens, from fictiously famous county ... Read more >

THE FIRST PART OF THE CRUISE was for transportation—we had to cross the Atlantic in some fashion. The rest of the trip was selfish indulgence, pure and simple. We had never been to the Channel Islands and we were looking forward to seeing an old ... Read more >

EVEN IF, LIKE US, YOU’VE VISITED ALL THE PORTS-of-call before, a trans-Atlantic cruise from the States to Europe is a great deal—if you have the time, that is. At a “school zone” cruising speed of 20 knots, it took us 15-days ... Read more >

15 years ago I was a rookie traveller, having been to only about three countries. Hitchhiking was only a distant dream, and I would buy stacks and stacks of postcards and trinkets to bring home. I was a tourist with a basic camera and no phone, just ... Read more >

As a day of remembrance, Anzac Day is never a particularly busy day. I was warned that I likely wasn’t going to get anywhere yesterday. Keeping my hopes high, I got on out there with all of my gear, including 10 litres of water. A ham and cheese ... Read more >

For two full days I waited in Laverton for a lift. How am I not frustrated? Hitchhiking, especially when undertaking extreme journeys like this one require the 4 P’s: patience, persistence, provisions, and power. Alex and Felix remarked that I’... Read more >

Several years ago I hitchhiked across the Nullarbor from Perth to Sydney, thumbing more than 4,000 kilometres. Last October and November I hitched from Airlie Beach to Perth via the top of Australia, and I ended up doing more than 8,100 kilometers along ... Read more >
