EL Nido, Palawan
Its Neat’o Palawan has been on the bucket list for some years, we just hadn’t managed time to get there. We were time poor with only ten days inclusive of travel days to make a break for it. The trip was for Locks birthday – I wanted an escape with little travel time, and thankfully…

The Great Aus Lap
The slow life has been incredible so far. We enjoy the days as they come, free camping and unforgettable experiences.

Dolomites * Italy
I am rubbish at organising surprises, probably because I loathe them myself and I get far too excited when I am trying to plan something, so then I blurt it out. I need to know what’s going on – always! But this year, I wanted to make Father’s Day special. Lock isn’t hard to please…

Magical Mornings
Turkey holds a place in lots of Kiwis’ and Australians’ hearts. Tales of the heroic fight during World War II against the Ottoman Empire are now remembered through Anzac Day. For decades, Anzac families have tripped to Gallipoli to stand tall with pride in remembrance of the falling and survived soldiers. Gallipoli was definitely my…

Bohemian Baby
We knew very little about the Bahamas, other than a playground of celebs and well – “swimming pigs”! I shall have more to say about them later. The Exumas’ crystal-clear waters are perfect for sailing and fishing, as well as an assortment of water sports. Travellers in search of a secluded slice of paradise can…
