I honestly can’t even remember how I actually decided to move 18,764 km away from the only home I’d ever known, all on my own. (Probably not very a helpful fact in a ‘how to move to the other side of the world’ article, but it’s full of actually helpful tips, don’t worry.)
9 Places to Explore in Greenwich, London
Greenwich, London – the home of time possesses a myriad of historic royal ties and panoramic views of London. What more could you ask for in a borough? I narrowed my favourite spots down to just 9 places to explore in Greenwich.
It feels like it’s out of the city proper, and has a very different feel to central central London – BUT it’s still super easy to get to!
Long Flight Hacks | By Someone Who Moved to the Other Side Of The World
Having flown 3 return flights to New Zealand in the space of 12 months one year, you could say I’ve learnt more than a few long flight hacks & tips.

2022 | Travel, Anniversaries and Rollercoasters
2022 has unequivocally been a year of highs and lows. I started the year in New Zealand, having a lovely Christmas with my family (which I appreciated even more after the years of lockdowns) only to find out that my blog website provider had let my blog lapse and hadn’t kept any of the content.
The helpful tech on the other end of the phone sounded as upset as I was, and taught me how to lasso SOME of the 10 years of of memories and travel stories – but it wasn’t an auspicious start to the year. I’ve managed to get many blog posts back, and I’ve been slowly re-adding them as time allowed (which has been kinda handy not only for spotting glaring typos, but reliving those memories all over again.)
Christmas Gifts | The Small Business Edit
Dear Santa (and associated anthropomorphic helpers, elves, family members etc who help your international delivery of Christmas gifts.)
This Christmas, I know your elves are going to be super busy, so I would love you to support some of the small, amazing businesses here in the UK. Yes, I will absolutely do well out of the deal thanks to their creativity when their creations turn up under my tree, and yes, I’ll be able to add to my existing collections.
