    Backpack relationships

    25/06/2017

    Holiday relationships. So many of us have had them, right? But does the significance of them change when the holiday isn’t a holiday, but a backpack trip? I wrote this post a day before learning that a man with whom I’d had a very short backpack ‘fling’ had died, only a few days before. After returning from the trip on which I met him, we kept in touch for over a year. This June he was supposed to visit me as an add on to a family trip. A month before, he cancelled. Turns out, he knew about his illness but was too stubborn to tell anyone. I dedicate this…

    02/02/2017

    “I’m thinking about quitting my job and doing some solo travel by myself, can you help me?” I wish I had a pound for every time a newbie solo traveller said this to me! Travelling by yourself for the first time is terrifying. I remember sitting on the plane thinking, “God, what am I doing?”, frantically trying to identify people that could be my potential new friend as we landed. The key to getting rid of your nerves (or at least calming them), is to plan. These are my top solo travel tips, to help you feel less stressed when travelling alone … Your first solo travel destination is important I…

    OK, before I start … DISCLAIMER: This is not a huge prompt for you to go running off into the Brazilian favelas because you think it’ll make for a good story if you come out unscathed. There’s a big difference between trusting your gut and avoiding something because it’s been confirmed unsafe! There’s been a large number of occasions where I’ve been somewhere where an opportunity has presented itself and I’ve thought, “I’m in an unfamiliar place. Is this safe”? I touch on this during my posts about picking up hitchhikers. My gut instinct really paid off in Cambodia. I couldn’t have bought this experience it gave me and (to…

    Two years living in Thailand means that every time I go back, I pretty much go with an empty bag. Thailand was my first ever solo backpacking stop, and I wish I’d known not to take the following as a backpacker/someone who set up camp for years… (sorry if this feels a bit female orientated, but… er.. I’m female?) Mosquito repellent It was one of the first things I was told to buy.. “get yourself down to Boots and buy a huge bottle of the strongest Deet you can find”. …..Don’t bother! First of all, those wee Thai mozzies don’t give a rats ass about your Deet.. they’re still going…

The Duchess of Sutherland commissioned incredible
The Duchess of Sutherland commissioned incredible Carbisdale Castle after the death of her husband. 

I love the card she played against his family, who didn't approve of their marriage and contested his will. Eventually they agreed to give her money for a castle, as long as it was outside their lands. 

To really stick it to them, she built it on a hill where it is visible across a huge part of their estate. The clock tower is even missing a clock face on the side facing their estate, as she did not want to give them 'the time of day'.

The largest known physical representation of a country & largest outdoor relief map in the world. 

Can you believe this is an aerial view of a massive ground map?

The Great Polish Map of Scotland was created by two Polish men who had been inspired by a model map of Belgium that one had seen at the Brussels World's Fair in 1958.

Not an ad! Oh man, we had the best time up at @tantraedinburgh last night. We've never seen cocktails in Edinburgh like it - delighted to get a sneak preview of one of their drinks for cocktail fashion week (it came with its own edible Chanel perfume!)

Lots of vegan dishes to tuck into, like these 4-flavour poori's and vegan mixed grill! 

But what really made our visit was the team - they couldn't have been more enthusiastic about helping us choose what to order, and wholeheartedly embraced all of our faffing about with photographs & videos. 

Thanks team Tantra! We'll defo be back

#PRINVITE from @heavenlydesserts - an honest review.
I'm delighted to see this new dessert restaurant catering so well for vegans - desserts are usually where we get left out.

On our menu:
- Lotus Biscoff waffles
- Belgian chocolate & raspberry torte
- Iced rose & lychee latte (with oatmilk)
- Lotus Biscoff oat milk milkshake

I usually can't finish a waffle plate, but these were so light and tasty. Milkshake lovers should hot foot it down here, the Biscoff shake was thick and creamy (and tasted like pure calories, just like they should).
Loved the latte!! It reminded me of a rose shake I got in Mumbai. I'm really impressed that HD have taken the time to include unusual flavours for their plant-based options, as it's easy to play safe with familiar flavours.

A much needed extension to Fountain Park. I'll definitely be heading up here again for breakfast waffles and (with it being right next to the cinema), it'd be a great addition to a date night.

One good thing to come from Covid ... I finally took myself up to Fingal's Cave! 
The huge cavern had been on my list for ages, but it always got patched for a last minute flight abroad. 

Huge thanks to @tireeseatours who took us out on the incredible boat trip to see this place. Not only did we get plenty of time to explore, but they also stopped for the 2 dolphin pods that came along to see what we were up to.
