Exploring Barcelona
On The 24th of June I left Bilbao and made my way to Barcelona. As I had a bunch of flight credit left from the cancelled end of 2020 trip I was flying there via Madrid. There is a bit of flying back and forth on this first part of the trip, but it had to be done to...
VEGAN EATS: Bilbao
I've decided to try and do a bit of a vegan food focus blog series on each place I visit. I'm hoping that these improve a bit with practice because I am not a food blogger, as you will tell from these photos. I don't think to take a photo of my food until I have...
Art in Bilbao
My few days in Bibao were a wonderful way to ease into the travel life. It's a pretty chill place and siesta's are something I have embraced. Not so much the actual nap but the resting. Especially as my body clock has well been set to Melbourne time. After heading out...
From Melbourne to Bilbao
Well, here I am in Bilbao. After 3 flights I have finally made it. Well technically I arrived yesterday but after going for a wander and finding some food, I eventually made it to my room, showered, and passed out. So that's where I am now, lying on my bed about to...
Two weeks til go time!
It's getting close and it's starting to feel real. It's almost time for my Natventure. In the past week I have started booking tickets for some of the sites I want to see. This has definitely helped build the excitement and realisation that this isn't just a fantasy...
Era of epic
Yep. It's a pretty epic era. We're living through crazy times! And I am just over here all Omniwhat while I keep planning my escape overseas. The lockdown shopping and beginning of booking this trip has me now in serious work-save mode. I bookended Flavius's Subspace...
Booking has begun!
It's happening. I have started to make bookings. I managed to locate all the flight credit vouchers I had from when the trip of 2020 was cancelled. It's been interesting as this time round I have made my travel plans based on the flight credit and how I could best...
From lockdown to looking around
This week Australia has opened the airports and is allowing double vaxxed citizens to leave the country! So how did I celebrate this news? I booked myself a ticket for Mo:Dem festival in Croatia next year... Yep! Festival tickets are clearly the way to commit oneself...
Bank on travelling
It's been a bit between posts and well, we are all very aware of what 2020 has meant to travel plans. All of mine have been cancelled and refunds/credits obtained as much as possible. Whilst in my planning for all of this travel I found out about Revolut and as quick...
Osprey Porter 30L
After much research over the last few months I decided to purchase the Osprey Porter 30L. Choosing the right travel luggage to suit me and my travel style was an important decision. Here are a few reasons which helped me decide that the Osprey 30L was the best option....
It’s almost time to look around
It was back in about 2008/2009 I had every intention of heading to Cairns in 2012 for the Eclipse Festival. Unfortunately I never made it there and since then each time the eclipse and festival have happened I have not been in a position to attend. However the times...
