SETTING UP HOUSE
We have settled into our apartment; it is very nice, clean and modern. We researched several accommodation options but, in the end, this suited us, it is fully furnished and the rent covers the cable, internet, garbage collection and all utilities. The only downside...
MOVING FORWARD
Firstly, we did receive our luggage and secondly I would like to mention how hard it is for your brain to go to sleep when it is technically only 4 pm in the afternoon, so with a fair bit of tossing and turning we got a couple of hours in before heading out to...
THE GOOD WITH THE BAD
When traveling it’s good when things go to plan, but that does not always happen! Arrived in Sydney and are upgraded to business class – woo hoo, flights are on time and the meal is great. Arrive in San Francisco on time for the connecting flight, well this is the...
OUR YEAR ABROAD – 2019
Preparing to go: Well when I said I needed a year to prepare I really needed a year to prepare! Now three days out we finally feel like we have it under control. I am a bit of a list girl so was able to check off tasks as we went along. We have moved house and jobs...
NEW ZEALAND – JUST BEAUTIFUL
We have been to New Zealand numerous times from trips with friends, photo tours, birthdays and anniversaries but my most favourite time was Christmas with the kids in 2014.For our trip with our adult children we toured the North Island and did all those adrenaline...
2017, Myanmar & Vietnam

2016, India
India is one of Digby’s photographic tours which I just happen to tag along on, it started well with everyone arriving on time, however I am the only one missing my luggage. Luckily Digby has a “fixer” on the tour Felix, he is a local tour guide who loves food so we...
2016 – TONGA
Happy 50th to me! When Digby asked me what I wanted for my birthday, I said that I would like to go whale watching. Well what I got was a whole lot more, a week in Tonga swimming with humpback whales. What a once in a lifetime experience! We went with a company...
2013, Three month adventure in the USA
This trip came when we both needed a break, the last two years saw Digby start a new business and I started a new job, as well as getting the two kids through high school. We were exhausted, it was a spur of the moment decision and we just went for it. The main plan...
2006, Our whirlwind trip.
6 Countries in 6 weeks When I was younger I remember seeing ads for Disney Land and I thought that that is the only place in the world that I wanted to go. When I got married Digby asked me “if I could go anywhere in the world where would I go” and I only had one...
