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 …
I spent the first two weeks of month 57 in the same way I spent the last of month 56: eating my way around Seattle and convincing myself I need to settle down so I can get a dog. When my time in Seattle drew to a close, I left having fallen …
Sometimes you need a slow, laidback four weeks for once, and that’s exactly what month 56 was for me! I’d just finished up an intense island-hopping adventure around the South Pacific, and was exhausted, stressed, and ready to hit pause on my travels for a while. Luckily, I found the perfect two …
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 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 …
Month 50 was all about hitting pause and figuring out what I want to do with my life. Sounds deep, huh? I guess it kind of was. I had originally planned to spend a week at home before jetting off again, but cancelled my plans at the last minute to …
Phew! What a rollercoaster ride of a month! Over the past four weeks, I’ve visited four countries, found a potential future home, recovered from my traumatising previous month of travel, and published my first book. Let’s get started! I kicked off the month on a high but stressful note, as I …
