Back when I used to live in Australia, every year my friends and I would go to Port Fairy (a coastal town around 3 hours drive from Melbourne) at the start of March for ‘Folkie’ – the famous folk festival that takes place there annually. It’s usually a debaucherous long weekend filled with copious amounts of alcohol, dancing and […]

Photo Of The Week – The South London Tank
March 9, 2012 by 2 Comments
I love the story of this random old Russian tank which sits on a small plot of land in South London. Legend has it that a property developer bought the plot and applied for planning permission to build here, but when it was refused by the local council, he decided to get his own back […]
The Tax Implications Of Being A Location Independent Blogger
March 6, 2012 by 10 Comments
If you are serious about becoming a location independent entrepreneur, then tax and earning money around the world is a topic that you will need to be well versed in. It’s unfortunately not the most exciting of topics, but very useful to know nonetheless – I’ve had a few people contact me about this recently, […]
Photo Of The Week – The Wild Monkeys Of Galwar Bagh
March 2, 2012 by 1 Comment
I love critters. Perhaps I shouldv’e been a little more cautious when moving towards a gang of teeth-baring primates at the Galwar Bagh temple in Jaipur, India, but I just couldn’t help it – I wanted to hang with them. Thankfully, I live to tell the tale, although the sly little punks did rob us of […]
Month 12 Blog Update
February 29, 2012 by 12 Comments
Wow – I’ve been blogging for a year, how crazy is that when it comes around?! I’m feeling pretty chuffed at the moment – mostly because I’ve kept at it despite time pressures, and life getting in the way pretty much most weeks. Knowing that I’ve gotten through the last year has given me so […]
Photo of The Week – The Little Mermaid
February 24, 2012 by 3 Comments
Hans Christian Andersen may just be Denmark’s most famous export (apart from the pastries of course!) and his statue inspired by his fairytale The Little Mermaid, is perhaps Copenhagen’s most famous sight. I couldn’t believe the sheer volume of tourists gathered at the edge of the coast line to see this rather tiny lady curled up on […]
The Best Cities In The World For Brunch
February 22, 2012 by 6 Comments
Who doesn’t love a good, hearty brunch? It’s not quite lunch, and is usually eaten after a long sleep in, so what’s not to enjoy? I think brunch is pretty much my favourite meal of the day at weekends and when travelling, so I’ve made it a mission to explore some of the best places […]
Photo Of The Week – Colourful Basel Cathedral
February 17, 2012 by 2 Comments
The tallest point in the city of Basel, Switzerland is its beautifully colourful cathedral. You can climb to the top by navigating its many flights of winding stairs, and once you reach the top (albeit a little sweaty and almost broken) the view is quite spectacular. What I loved about this building the most however, […]
