From Samui we headed to Krabi. We had heard good things about it but as with most places we visited we didn't know what to expect.
We had booked a ferry with a different company, and what a disaster. The actual journey was fine, but our transfer ... Read more >

As I mentioned before, we didn’t have a car so our experiences with Slovenia’s natural wonders were limited. A very sad thing considering how stunning the country is. Still, we did get to see two incredible places outside of Ljubljana and ... Read more >

We were picked up buy a mini bus at 8am from our guest house. We spent the next 30 minutes navigating the crazy streets to collect all the other people for the journey. The bus was cramped with tiny seats and no leg space, and once everyone was on, ... Read more >

Today I woke up and figured out what my next country was going to be. I think it is Croatia. Then I played some chess with a different Alex from the hostel and arranged a time to go caving in the evening. There are some large caves in the hills of Buda ... Read more >

This is one of my favourite experiences so far. Set amid Hobbiton countryside, the Waitomo caves are a must-do. We chose to see them by cave-tubing, which is where you put in a wetsuit, helmet and head torch and jump into the cold river with your inner ... Read more >

What I realised today is that you can be in the most beautiful place but if its grey skies and torrential rain it still seems desolate and miserable!
Back to that later as I've got a couple days to fill you in on!
On Friday we went wine tasting ... Read more >

Hello! We had such a good time at the Phong Nha Farmstay that we didn't get a chance to do many updates. Long story short: the caves are spectacular, the locals are charming, the countryside is beautiful, and many friends were made. ... Read more >

Today we leave Hue, which has become our favorite spot so far on our trip. 12 days in (give or take... we keep losing track!) and we are starting to get the hang of things here.
Vietnam has been an incredibly ... Read more >

Hello New Zealand – and hello again WorldNomads.
I’m off on a mini-adventure to New Zealand for the month. Sadly, most of that time was spent working but it did give me weekends to play.
I probably won’t manage to get all of my ... Read more >

Based on Ant's childhood memories of visiting the caves, we decided to make the trip 13kms out of KL to see the caves and surrounds. There are loads of ways to get to the caves (taxi, buses, tourist bus) but we decided to take the train from KL Sentral ... Read more >

I flew in from Hong Kong and an uneventful 4 hour flight later, I'm in Kuala Lumpur. This place is $%^& humid. Rather than take a taxi to my hotel, I wanted to try out the KL Ekpres train from the airport into the city. The system is nearly 10 ... Read more >
