Cambodia is such a wonderful country. While it may be most famous for its magnificent Angkor Wat, it has so much more to offer its visitors. You’ve got beautiful beaches, spectacular islands, delicious food, hipster cities, so much history, and plenty of welcoming locals. Yes, I absolutely adore Cambodia. I’m …
Greetings from Taipei! What a fabulous month I’ve had, from celebrating Dave’s birthday in Cambodia to an action-packed jaunt through Vietnam, these past four weeks have brought the perfect blend of travel, rest, and play into my life. Let’s get started! This month, I returned to Sihanoukville and my beloved Otres Beach, …
What an amazing, wonderful, perfect month! And can I just say how great it feels to open a monthly summary with that line? Things are going so well right now! I kicked off the month at home in the UK, doing much the same as the previous month: spending time with family and …

Greetings from Cambodia! Yes, I’ve finally returned to Southeast Asia and it’s SO good to be back! At the beginning of the month I had one week left of my sailing trip around the coast of Turkey and I’m pleased to say that the rest of my time on board …
