A few days roaming around Rome…

A ‘whoa is me story’ about the Dutch Public Transport System….

Well let me just start by saying, this story is a woah is me story. I am writing for sympathy, even if its just a little bit. You see sometimes we need to just talk about all that went wrong in a day, to make ourselves feel a little better for unloading it all, and …

Visiting Yalara, biking around Uluru and getting rained on in the desert was EPIC!

Our adventure visiting Uluru was epic! Everyone knows of Uluru, the big rock in the middle of Australia in the desert.

Why you need to be awake before 5am to experience the Kings Canyon Rim Walk
