Warning, riding a bicycle in Japan is serious fun but also seriously dangerous. Actually just walking along the footpaths can be hazardous at the best of times.

Papua New Guinea lush And Volcanic
We awake early to see the land of PNG, more specific the town of Rabaul, East New Briton and the volcano ‘Tavurvur’ smoking in the distance.

Champagne Breakfast on Queen Elizabeth
This morning we decide to start the day with another pre-breakfast (trust me this IS a thing!) delivered to our room – complete with a mouth-wateringly fresh fruit platter, more of their addictive Danish pastries, freshly squeezed orange juice, tea and…..Champagne!

Yorky’s Knob, so Close Yet Still so Far
Day 4 – 7th March 2014 The (regrettably) quick Yorky’s Knob stop, then en route to Rabaul PNG. We awake at around 6.30am just as the ship is approaching Cairns.

Uproot Your Life

Most people wouldn’t dream of leaving a fully furnished home behind, waving goodbye to their good friends, and turning their back on the country of their dreams. Most people would like to follow their dreams, dream about uprooting life, but stop metres from the starting blocks. Why? Because […]
Our Leap Into a New Adventure: The Entrepreneur’s Odyssey
