This is definitely one of the more pleasant and shorter travel days I’ve had in a long time. Two legs on a budget airline, a 2am wake up and arriving at my destination by 2pm. Looking forward to returning to this beautiful country, here is my travel day Chiang Mai to Da Nang on VietJet. …
On my first visit to the city last year, I wanted to stay in an authentic neighbourhood, to be close to temples and historical sights. This year, while I wait for my passport to renew, I decided to try a different area, one that is home to the expats. The Nimman Chiang Mai a digital …
There is a lot to do and see in this city. Much of it will be included in your Jordan Pass if you chose to purchase one before entering Jordan. If you did not, many of the sites are a minimal fee of 1-3DR. As a budget traveller, I’m always looking to save money. So …
My first day in Petra, I have decided to divide my time at two places. They happen to be at either end of this enormous and ancient city. I spent the early morning making my way from the visitor’s centre to the Treasury. Now its late morning, the air is a little warmer and I’ll …

I have come to the end of my allowable 90 days inside the Schengen zone which I have spent in southern Spain. Now its time for me to move on to another destination, one which will be a dream come true for me. Join my travel day from Mallorca to Amman Jordan and let’s get …
As always, when getting ready to depart a location, I like to create one of these posts to pass along ideas to future travellers. This has been a short excursion for me, but having spent only a few days here, I have some ideas for you. Here are 5 free things to do in Tangier …
Readers will know by now; how much I adore markets of any kind. I was in my element here in Tangier, and perhaps found my personal limit as well. Let me explain. The Grand & Petit Socco of Tangier Morocco will awaken all of your senses, more than you might want. Grand Socco Ok, we …
Being this close to Africa, it is a terrific opportunity to hop on a ferry and take an excursion. For me the price is too steep for a day trip, so I choose to visit for a couple of days. Here is a step-by-step guide for the FRS ferry from Tarifa to Tangier. Tickets Once …
Well, its time to move to my next destination. I’ve had an interesting time in Tirana, stayed in a beautiful Airbnb and I’m ready to move on. My travel day Tirana to Seville on Lufthansa should be simple and easy. Let’s see how it goes. Tirana I had my alarm set for 2:30am and left …
I’m changing destinations again, this time it’s a super fast jaunt, only 3.5 hours long with a short layover in Vienna. I am glad to be leaving Budva, it has been somewhat disappointing and I have had a terrible time with my Airbnb which I will explain in a future post. For now, it’s a …
By far, the better coastal area in Budva is Becici. Still part of the same municipality, this is where the city shines. This extensive seaside beach is classier, cleaner and offers visitors a better experience than Slovenska Beach in Budva. Come explore beautiful Becici Beach in Montenegro and I’ll show you why its superior. Getting …

I have not made a secret of the fact that I have not enjoyed my time here in Bali. The country is suffering from over tourism, more than any other place I have visited. I was shocked by what I saw upon first arrival, the frustration I could see on the faces of the locals …
Always on the lookout for a good market, I have found one in Bali that is a complete vibe. While I have certainly struggled to find an authentic local market, there have been numerous tourist ones. This one tops the cake though, the Sunday market at La Brisa Bali is fantastic! Getting There Located at …
Facing another long travel day, I gathered my wits and dove straight in. This one was a doozy, with a nine hour, middle of the night layover. Yuck. Travel day Osaka to Bali on Scoot via SIN was upon me. Lets go. This is a loooong door to door post. Osaka Airport KIX Having to …
If there is a beach to be found in any destination, I will be the one to find it. 😁 I feel my absolute best at the beach, near the water, exposed to the big sky and horizon. Beside this beach is another attraction though, so a two or even three in one! A visit …
On my first full day in Kyoto, and the only one that was forecast to be sunny, I decided exploring the famous Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine would be a good plan. I had done very little research, but knew that the earlier I arrived, the less crowds I would encounter. Social Media I have seen pictures, …
