Youthful Creativity: Michelberger Hotel

September 17, 2014

There aren’t many hotels in the world like the Michelberger Hotel; but then there aren’t many cities in the world like Berlin. In fact I can think of none. The anti-thesis of perfection, both destinations are built on the same raw and rebellious energy that drives the souls who visit. The Michelberger Hotel is a kind of modern-day mirror-image of Berlin – which is, funnily enough, anything but modern and far, far from finished. But that’s the whole point, says head interior architect, Till ... Read More

Courtyards and Cool Spaces: Avenue Hotel Copenhagen

September 14, 2014

I’ll let you in on a little secret: I’ve found the best hotel courtyard in all of Scandinavia… and it just happens to live out the back of award-winning luxury Avenue Hotel Copenhagen. It’s a truly gorgeous and inviting space, with comfy pillows strewn all over the carved wooden benches, and in the warmer months it’s filled with the most divine Geraniums you ever did see. There’s nothing better than coming home from a day of exploring Copenhagen, grabbing your laptop (and a rose from the ... Read More

A Danish Doll House: The Hotel Alexandra Copenhagen

September 12, 2014

The warm, friendly vibe of Hotel Alexandra Copenhagen was the perfect start to my whirlwind Copenhagen trip. After landing at the airport and catching the train through what seemed like an actual full-force hurricane, complete with horizontal rain, 100 kilometre winds and requisite upside down street umbrellas to match, all I felt like doing was curling up in a ball somewhere that felt familiar. Sometimes when you’ve been travelling for a while you wish you could snap your bright red heels ... Read More

Gozo Travel Highlights: Into The Deep Blue Sea

September 10, 2014

Gozo Travel Highlights While the island of Malta is a melting-pot of contrasts, a real city schism of high/low, business/play and history/modernity, Gozo, it’s unspoilt sister island a mere 8 km off the southern-most tip of Malta, sways toward the more calm and relaxed side of the destination scales. If you’re looking for hidden caves, pristine bays, fresh seafood and unbelievable rock formations jutting out of the sea like calcified waves reaching for the sky, then exploring this pint-sized ...

Nothing but crystal clear turquoise water and relaxation 2.0 on this list ladies and gents, and even though I tend subscribe to the whole ... Read More

Driving from Melbourne to Brisbane on the Newell Highway

May 27, 2014

As I pack my worldly belongings into boxes (more boxes than I’d prefer to divulge) and prepare to relocate my base-camp up to Brisbane from Melbourne, I am confronted with one very important question: is there actually anything exciting about the Newell Highway, the fastest and most direct route between the two cities? Sure, there are *foul-mouthed truckies' and the occasional ‘roo, but is there anything scenic, dare I say touristy about this 20-hour inland route? Don’t get me wrong, I don’t ... Read More

8 Ways To Stay Fit While Traveling

April 6, 2014

How to Stay Fit While Traveling? It's that familiar whisper in our heads just before a trip. For someone who’ll find any excuse not to go to the gym, I seem to have the best of intentions for holiday fitness. My running shoes are a regular fixture in my luggage and my skipping rope has a permanent spot in my carry-on zip pocket. Granted, exercising while traveling sounds like a bit of a bore. I get it, I totally do, a vacation doesn’t really seem like a vacation if you’re still slugging it ... Read More

Funniest Travel Quotes of All Time

February 17, 2014

We’re all familiar with the usual travel quotes, you know, the ones penned by tremendous writers such as Twain and Theroux longingly romanticizing the grand “unknown”. And while there’s a time and a place for these inspiring words, there are also times when a sense of humour is your best friend – especially when you’re confronted with the endlessly absurd and stressful situations every globetrotter faces at one time or another. Travel doesn’t always have to be about “finding yourself”. It can ... Read More
