The framework of a successful business is its plan, and this is especially true when you want to start your own location independent business and work from anywhere in the world – you’ll most likely have to also take into account international laws, bank accounts and languages! It always pays to be organised, so the earlier […]

I had never heard of Acorn Street In Beacon Hill, Boston when I visited the city last year, but after walking the cobbled streets and speaking with locals we found out that it is actually the most photographed street in the whole of the USA – pretty crazy!

August 24, 2011 by 8 Comments
One of my favourite buzz words from the recent global financial crisis is ‘staycation’ – the act of holidaying or travelling in the country you live rather than taking off abroad.

August 12, 2011 by 3 Comments
Having grown up in a country with some of the most beautiful beaches in the world I never thought I’d be hugely impressed by a beach in Europe – but when I visited Barcelona last year that’s exactly what I was. Crystal clear water, soft sand and a view that lasts for miles – my idea […]

Whether its modern, fine, abstract or street art that you love, travel will always provide you with a new fix no matter where you visit – but there’s no doubt that some cities in the world are more famous for their art than others.
