The Art of Sending Postcards

UNITED KINGDOM | Sunday, 28 Feb 2010 | Views [735]

I love postcards. I love receiving them, I love displaying them, I love finding them cheap from some souvenir/camera/coffee shops. What I hate doing is sending them or, more correctly, finding the right stamps and remembering to have them on hand when ... Read more >


Shakespeare Land

UNITED KINGDOM | Saturday, 20 Feb 2010 | Views [391]

Stratford-on-Avon: the birthplace (and deathplace) of the Bard himself. It’s a beautiful place and I wish I could explore it without all this bloody snow! It started to snow as soon as we stepped off the train and hasn’t eased up. My bag and contents ... Read more >

Money woes in the UK

UNITED KINGDOM | Saturday, 20 Feb 2010 | Views [296]

Okay, so I know travellers often run into ‘money woes’ but I really never expected this!   When I arrived at Heathrow Airport the first thing I did (or tried to do) was use an ATM to get out some British money – not going to getting very far ... Read more >


London - Day Three/Play Three

UNITED KINGDOM | Saturday, 20 Feb 2010 | Views [440]

  Well, today was the day earmarked to hang out with my wonderful Irish mate, V. Sadly, she couldn’t make the trip but generously passed a theatre ticket, that she had pre-booked, unto me. So, day three, play three.   I’m sitting in Leicester ... Read more >


Please Sir, may I have some cash?

UNITED KINGDOM | Saturday, 20 Feb 2010 | Views [519]

So I can’t seem to access money from my bank account here. I’m not sure why considering I’ve used the card in two other continents already. It’s weird being in the city of London with only an Oyster card (transport) and £10 to your name! Thank goodness ... Read more >

Laundry, Streetcars and Good Chocolate

CANADA | Sunday, 14 Feb 2010 | Views [305]

Today was my Couch Surfing (CS) host’s day off and, bless her, she spent the day with me. First up, washing …oh, excuse me … laundry. Now this may not sound overly exciting but when you’re moving every other week and living out of a backpack, clean ... Read more >


Flake Out Day

CANADA | Tuesday, 9 Feb 2010 | Views [330]

A total flake out day today. I woke up stressed and upset by my seemingly thwarted attempts to travel to India. I could barely work up the energy to go outside. So, I decided to stay in and experience a day of Canadian television. So far I’ve … ... Read more >


Museum Day

CANADA | Tuesday, 9 Feb 2010 | Views [311]

Museum day today, well, two actually. Well, only one so far but am sitting across the street from number two, waiting until the admission price becomes ‘pay-what-you-can’. I’m finding that many of these attractions have ‘pay-what-you-can’ days/hours.... Read more >


First night in Toronto

CANADA | Tuesday, 9 Feb 2010 | Views [268]

A strange past 24hrs. The bus took only 20hrs from Fredericton. I’m not complaining but it meant that I was a little early arriving at my couch surfers place. So, it’s exactly 24hrs since I left my sister in New Brunswick and now I’m sitting in a café ... Read more >


Oh Canada!

AUSTRALIA | Tuesday, 9 Feb 2010 | Views [293]

I am on a bus headed to Toronto – I hope. According to the web, this trip will take about 36hrs and so far, I’ve done 3hrs.It the middle of the night and I’m in a town called Edmondston. Here’s the thing though, I’m as content as I’ve ever been, Okay, ... Read more >


Turn up the heat ... please!

CANADA | Monday, 1 Feb 2010 | Views [317]

So ... Canada is cold. I know that everyone knows that but really, it's freakin' cold! The trip from New York was ... interesting. After waiting for our shuttle for like half an hour at 2:30am we realised that they probably weren't coming. Fortunately ... Read more >


New York, New York

USA | Monday, 1 Feb 2010 | Views [434]

So ... finally I made it to New York. Funny thing was, I thought something big and amazing would happen in New York - well it happens in all the movies, right? - but it didn't. New York was ... subdued. Don't get me wrong, I had a wonderful time so much ... Read more >

USA | Saturday, 30 Jan 2010 | Views [379]

So ... I've just completed the month long intensive at Shakespeare & Company and when they say intensive, they're not kidding. But unfortunately kiddies, what happens in intensive, stays in intensive so I can't reveal any of the more juicy goss like ... Read more >

And so it begins ...

JAPAN | Sunday, 27 Dec 2009 | Views [330] | Comments [1]

I've only been talking about the BIG TRIP for about, oooo, 10 years now so it's kind of a shock that I am now actually here. Travelling. Overseas. Despite the six months of planning, twelve months of saving and ten years of procrastinating it's still ... Read more >
