asia

Temples, amazing food, diversity around every corner. Asia is the continent I’ve spent the most time in and its still so dear to my heart.

There’s nowhere in the world quite like Asia.

From developing countries, to expat metropolises, this continent is full of surprises.

Asia is where I’ve spent the majority of my time, with the exception of my home country, Australia.

I’ve lived in Manila, The Philippines. I’ve worked in Japan, Vietnam and Singapore. I’ve toured through Cambodia.

I lay by the pool in Bali and made my way out to the monkey forests of Ubud, too.

I’ve eaten street food in Delhi, Hanoi, Hong Kong and Penang.

I attended a friend’s wedding in Malaysia.

I sang for customers in a bar in Chitwan National Park, Nepal.

I lived it up for a few days in the United Arab Emirates and then headed over to Jordan to explore the wonders of Petra and Wadi Rum.

I’ve sunbaked on the beaches of Koh Samui, Boracay, Bali and Goa.

I’ve seen the sunrise over Angkor Wat.

I visited Turkey, where Asia meets Europe.

So, it’s pretty evident that Asia has formed a huge part of my travel experience since the travel bug bit a while ago. There’s a lot more to cover and a lot of places that I’m hankering to get back to on this continent.

The Best Tokyo Neighbourhoods To Explore

Tokyo is a place that I just can't seem to stay away from for long. Since my first visit in 2011, I've been back three times and could easily go back again another three times (or more!). It is such a huge place that figuring out where to go in Tokyo can feel...

How To Spend An Epic 24 Hours in Sapporo

How To Spend An Epic 24 Hours in Sapporo

Sapporo is not usually on many travellers’ Japan itineraries. It’s further up north on the island of Hokkaido and for a large chunk of the year it is buried in snow. My June visit was excellently timed with beautiful weather which made it perfect to spend 24 hours in...

A Reflective Trip To Beautiful Goa In Southern India

I write this with sand between my toes, salt in my hair and a heart full of love. Goa seems to have that effect on people. There are so many things to do in Goa, but right now, I'm loving the ease of lazing around on the sandy shores of the beach. I’m here in Southern...
