The Adventures of a Solo Traveller
Putting aside my personal opinions mentioned in Backpacking Nicaragua, here is my guide to backpacking Nicaragua! Where you start will be dependent on which neighboring country you come from, a friend and I got a 22 hour bus from Guatemala (slight stop over in El Salvador) and arrived first in the city Leon but if … Continue reading A Guide to Backpacking Nicaragua
MIA - Missing in action. If there's one thing I've learned; it's that I need to work on consistency. As soon as my routine changes (in this case moving city and having time off work), I abandon my blog and Instagram page for the chaos that surrounds me. It's nice to have a break from … Continue reading I’ve been MIA again…
Now I didn't love Nicaragua and so in this post I will write about the highlights and low-lights of my time here. I do not want to put anyone off visiting as it does have some great things to offer, each traveler will have their own experience of every country and there are so many … Continue reading My thoughts on Backpacking Nicaragua
I spent around four weeks in Guatemala and still feel it was no where near enough time. As mentioned in yesterday's blog post, it's a country that utterly stole my heart. If you haven't seen it yet, check it out Guatemala – you stole my heart (ft. Stranger who now has pictures of me). Firstly, … Continue reading A backpackers guide to Guatemala
I honestly don't know where to start with this post, Guatemala stole my heart for so many reasons.

This … Continue reading Guatemala – you stole my heart (ft. Stranger who now has pictures of me)

Mexico is huge and I was somewhat limited on time so stuck to two weeks backpacking the Yucatan Peninsula. There are so many places you could visit outside of the Yucatan and this is by no means the … Continue reading A guide to backpacking the Yucatan – Mexico

This blog post will summarise my experience and there will be second which is more of a guide/itinerary Mexico was never actually a place I had wanted to visit. I only heard of the fantastic all-inclusive resorts and that isn't my … Continue reading Backpacking Mexico – Isla Holbox Day 1-4.
For years I had dreamt of backpacking through South America and set myself some ‘must do’ locations to visit by the time I was 25. For me, the time pressure gave me motivation to stop coming up with excuses on why not to just up sticks and go. After all, most of us know how … Continue reading The ‘f**k it’ approach & how I got to Mexico
I was massively under prepared when I flew to Rome as we’d booked the trip two days before leaving however, luckily, my friend Isla (we met in Colombia’s last year and hadn’t seen each other since) had compiled a list of ‘must do’s’ and from our experience, I’ve created this fabulous guide to all things … Continue reading Rome in 3 days..
I loved running my travel Instagram page, upping engagement daily and writing blog posts but after a few rubbish months and changes of lifestyle, I gave it all up. All of a sudden my hobbies and interests seemed to become irrelevant, I stoped contact with most the my friends and let the whole Covid-19 UK … Continue reading It’s been a while…
