Whilst planning our NC500 Scotland 4 day itinerary, it was proving difficult to find a post that listed accommodation and the best things to see all in one place. There’s so much about the famous Scottish Highlands road trip to cover, and most websites involved a lot of scrolling and jumping from page to page. In this post, I’ve tried to break our NC 500 route down into days, whilst including the accommodation we used along the way. NC500 Scotland Route Planner So, the big question first, “Which way to go?” Although most people go West to East, we went East to West (starting in Inverness and working our way…

Vegan-friendly restaurants in Palolem
Vegetarian and vegan restaurants in Palolem are a dime a dozen, most focusing on a more Western palette with sushi bowls, breakfast pancakes, sandwiches and vegan sweet treats. The main strip directly behind the beach has lots of modern cafes and eateries perfect for vegan breakfast, lunch or dinner. I certainly didn’t get to try all of them, but here’s a quick run down of the vegan Palolem hotspots that I did manage to check out … Zest I’d been following these guys on Instagram for a good couple of months before I arrived in Palolem, so I was already quite clued up on their vegan offering when I finally…

Vagator’s vegan-friendly restaurants
Goa has a reputation for being really vegan-friendly, however, going vegan in Vagator is still somewhat challenging (due to India’s fondness of egg and gee/butter). With so few blogs touching specifically on vegan-friendly Vagator spots, I’ve pulled together a list of the reliable eateries that I came across during my short time there. Bean me up Bean Me Up is a vegan/ plant based dream. With its lush green plant canopy, spacious wooden tables, lounging chairs and twinkling nighttime fairy lights, expect to pay more than you would for a standard roadside establishment. For backpackers, this jungle paradise is a treat, whilst for short-term travelers, it’s still a lot cheaper…

Should you be using Canva for Pinterest to increase blog traffic?
Business owners plug hours and hours of promotional time into Facebook, Instagram and twitter. But, how many of you are capitalising on Pinterest to promote your online services? And more importantly, could Canva and Pinterest be used to help increase your blog traffic or business hits? Where is your blog/business traffic coming from? 35% of my traffic comes from Pinterest (second only to organic traffic from search engines). So, if you’re not using it, you might be missing out on valuable (and profitable) traffic. My website traffic now generates an extra bit of side income for me; you can read about this in my blog post, ‘How to make money…

How to make money blogging
In a time where everyone wants to make a quick buck, I see a lot of new bloggers popping up to write about travel in a bid to earn money blogging. I’ve been blogging for years now, and it’s only recently that my site has started making a monthly income and, even then, we’re not talking huge amounts! I often tell people that it’s very possible to get paid to blog, however, the amount of time you dedicate to this will ultimately affect your success. In this post I’ll cover some of the main ways to make money from blogging, though I warn you now, this will never be a…

Air France vegan meal review | Vegan Travels
Air France as upped it’s vegan food game significantly since I last travelled with them almost 2 years ago. In fact, the Air France vegan meal offering has improved so much that I’d rank it as one of my best vegan plane meals to date. However, the team at Air France HQ have still got some work to do. Despite the (mostly) pleasant experience on my outward flight, their website failed to save my meal selection on the way home, leaving me with no food for my 15 hour trip back. I’ll discuss this, alongside the other things to watch out for, in this post. You can also find my…

Finnair vegan food review
Like most airlines, Finnair offer a vegan ‘special meal’ during their international flights. After years of in-flight food frustration, I wanted to share my experience of the Finnair vegan food options and how they fare versus other airlines. Flying with Finnair I’d never flown with Finnair before. A lot of people I had spoken with before my flight had scoped them out, but not one of them had ever actually flown with them. I’d decided to take a gamble with the airline for my trip from Scotland to Thailand, a decision partially made on the back of my long standing huff with Emirates (watch out vegans – they didn’t arrange…

Sustainable Travel on the Isle of Arran
The Isle of Arran is the ideal place to take a break (regardless of whether you’re a Scottish local or new visitor to the country). Being one of Scotland’s larger islands, there’s plenty of things to do in Arran; with its proximity to the mainland meaning those short on time can visit most of the main attractions without feeling rushed. As the conversation around climate change increases, we see more and more Eco-conscious explorers looking for ways to minimise their carbon footprint. With that thought, here’s my top recommendations for a several days in Arran; including how to get around, what to do and where to eat … How to…
