I can’t not acknowledge the fact that my monthly summaries have been all over the place! I hit the pause button on them for a while, as they’ve always been some of my least popular posts, but after so many requests to bring them back, I realised they were more loved …
I kicked off month 61 by getting my sparkle back. I’d just finished the Whole30 and felt the best I had in, well, forever. I couldn’t believe that after all this time, a change of diet was all it had taken to completely transform my mental and physical health. With my anxiety under control, …
I kicked off month 60 with a heart-warming visit from my parents. I couldn’t wait to show them around my new home. I’d been saving all of the most touristy activities in Lisbon for when they were here, so I was thrilled to finally get to discover what brings most people here. …
Month 59 was all about exploring as much of Lisbon as possible! At the start of the month, I crossed my fingers and signed a year-long lease on what I hoped would be my perfect apartment. I collected my keys, moved in, and suddenly had a whole lot of domestic chores for the first time in a …
We decided to fly to Lisbon on a whim. Dave and I knew a couple who had recently made the city their home, and, as we were looking to find a base somewhere in Europe but hadn’t yet decided where, we dropped them a message to find out what they liked …

My monthly summaries are back by popular demand! I wasn’t sure if I wanted to continue rounding up my travels in this way, so hit the pause button for several months to reevaluate. As it turns out, I missed them! And so did you guys. Stay tuned as I’ll be catching you …
Iorana from Tahiti! What. A. Month. I don’t even know where to begin. Over the past four weeks, I continued to stuff my face with delicious brunches in Melbourne, took myself offline to spend time with Dave’s family in New Zealand, and kicked things into high gear with a solo trip to the …
Greetings from scorching hot Melbourne, where the temperatures have soared to 45 degrees C and the 100 km/h winds are keeping me burnt and sweaty. Here’s what I’ve been up to over the past four weeks! I kicked off this month in Taipei, thrilled to be still and with some semblance of balance. …
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, …
