Photographing Marrakech was such a delight. Surrounded by such gorgeous, rich colours there’s definitely no shortage of golden photo opportunities. Welcome to part 1 of my photo journey.

A Wonderful Stay at Dar Warda, Marrakech
After a hectic time at work studying for my promotion – sitting through 7 interviews and presenting my final project – I was very ready for a holiday. The moment I passed, I immediately booked a plane ticket to Marrakech to celebrate. I quickly searched through one of my favourite hotel booking websites Tablet, and […]
The Perfect Tree House, Manila
Our last few days in the Philippines was spent in the most perfect tree house just outside of Manila. After weeks of incredible experiences diving in Palawan, kayaking at El Nido paradise island and exploring Boracay beach, this was a very different kind of adventure. Let me explain how we ended up staying in a […]
Sangat Island Dive Resort, Palawan
I’ve always dreamed of going to a beautiful secluded island where you sleep in bamboo huts meters away from the ocean. Where there’s nothing to do but lounge in hammocks all day, sip cocktails and get completely engrossed in a book. This is exactly what we did at Sangat Island Dive Resort, the only resort on […]
The Perfect Beach – Boracay, Philippines
I admit it, I’m kind of a beach snob. The ocean’s shade of blue, it’s clarity, the sand’s softness and grain size.. it all matters when you’re on the hunt for the perfect beach. If, like me, you’re determined to sink your feet into warm sand of the world’s best beaches, then I can happily tell you […]
Shipwreck Diving in Coron Bay, Palawan
Shipwreck diving in Coron Bay, Philippines is world famous for a reason. It’s more spectacular and epic than you could imagine. Our time here was world’s apart from island hopping in El Nido or Boracay! After reading about the many WW2 Japanese ships that were attacked by US forces on September 24th 1944, and how you […]
Coron Town, Philippines
After an incredible time on El Nido, our next stop was Coron Town on the island of Busuanga (also in the province of Palawan). Coron is the main town on the island for diving the world famous WW2 ship wrecks (read all about my Shipwreck diving in Coron Bay). Not to get confused, there’s also […]
Island Hopping in El Nido, Philippines
Arriving in El Nido was an island dream come true. With the long journey to get there and the fact that it is still relatively untraveled, it really felt like a special kind of paradise. As I mentioned in my last El Nido post, the true beauty of this protected area is when you reach […]
Paradise in El Nido, Philippines
Spending a month in the Philippines was one of the best vacations I’ve ever been on. It was my boyfriend and I’s first big travel trip together, so that definitely added to the excitement. We wanted a more unusual beach destination, in SE Asia, with world-class dive sites (since we’re both keen divers). Also so we […]
Hiking in the Himalayas, Nepal
It would be crazy to go to Nepal and not experience the Himalayas. With much excitement, we made our way to Pokhara, where we would begin our 5-day hike on the Ghorepani Poon Hill trail. The trek is a very popular one to do. There are a lot of hiking routes to embark on, however we found […]
