Adventure
Who loves adventure travel? I DO! Yes, I absolutely adore going on adventures and have tried some challenging activities while on my travels.
From volcano boarding in Nicaragua and hiking through the Atacama Desert, to kayaking in Finland’s archipelago and zip-lining through Costa Rica – these are the posts to fuel your adventurous side.
Happy Adventuring!
Photos Of Alanya, Turkey – Inspiration For First Time Visitors
These photos of Alanya in Turkey will give you a flavour of what to expect on your trip!
From Jeep safaris up winding mountain roads, venturing into beautiful caves, jumping off pirate galleons in the Mediterranean Sea and chasing sunsets, to witnessing traditional village life, sampling the best in Turkish cuisine and meeting some of the friendliest people on the planet. We really packed a lot into three days.
My first visit to Turkey was in April this year.

9 Best Beaches In The World
Time to check out the 9 best beaches in the world!
Paradise… where would you say it is? While everyone will have their own personal paradise, there are plenty of places on the planet that I’m sure we can all agree on. While I’ve been lucky enough to tick off a few, there are plenty more still waiting to be explored. Time to check out 9 of the world’s most amazing beaches.
1. Whitehaven Beach, Whitsundays, Australia

2. Bioluminescence Beaches, The Maldives
This glowing phenomenon is caused by microscopic organisms called bioluminescent phytoplankton. The microorganisms glow when stressed. I’ve seen glow worms, but these glow waves are a whole other phenomenon!

3. Isla Mujeres, Mexico
I was lucky enough to visit the Isla Mujeres last year, and wow are these islands beautiful. The water is crystal clear, and there are plenty of tropical fish to see once you’ve got a snorkel on.
Visiting Helsinki, Finland
Find out what it’s really like to visit Helsinki in Finland.
A very grand overnight cruise transported our Busabout group from Stockholm to Helsinki. 41 EUR gained us a two-hour feast in the Grand Buffet (including wine). We gorged on everything from smoked salmon, to roast beef to chocolate mousse! Delicious! After dinner, we checked out the on-board entertainment, before dancing the night away in the nightclub!

On arrival in Helsinki there were a few sore heads, but with little over 24 hours there, we were all keen to explore the city.
Being so fond of Stockholm, I expected to love Helsinki too, but it had a very different vibe. As most of the city burned down in 1801, it was redesigned from scratch in a Neo-Classical style – full of big boulevards and grand buildings.
One of my favourite discoveries was Signora Delizia – a cute Italian café in Katajanokka, just around the corner from Moomin creator Tove Jansson’s childhood home. It used to be a tobacco store, and was full of quirky charm, plus the coffee was excellent.
