    Photo Diary | Sunshine On Leith

    Leith was a busy working dock back in the 18th century, in fact it was Scotland’s main port for trade with huge ships sailing in and out with products such as wool, wine and spices. In 1920 Leith became part of Edinburgh and so it is situated on the northern edge of the city. The industrial side has now faded, and Leith is now rated one of the world’s coolest neighbourhoods with great places to eat and drink- including two of the cities Michelin-star restaurants, and many (mo

    Photo Diary | Dean Village, Edinburgh

    Edinburgh is Scotland’s capital; the city is bustling, full of energy, full of tourists and locals. There is the medieval Old Town, the elegant Georgian New Town with gardens and neoclassical buildings, there is the Scottish Parliament, many monuments, bars, restaurants, museums, a palace and of course Edinburgh Castle- all making Edinburgh a very worthy capital city… Yet just a 5 minute stroll from the main shopping area Princes Street lies an oasis of serenity, a quaint and

    Stunning Queenslander Homes

    I've been going through our old photographs from when we lived in Brisbane, as we loved the city and haven't ever really got round to documenting our time there. When I was looking at the photos I found our collection of Brisbane houses... Back in 2011 we moved to Australia on a ‘working holiday visa’ and settled into life for a little while at least, in Brisbane. We rented a condo with 3 houses connected, and it was built on stilts. We immediately realised that pretty much m

The tomb is the centrepiece of a 42-acre complex made of ivory-white marble on the interior and exterior, the interior chamber of the Taj Mahal

    Greece | Cats Of Nisyros

    Whether you a feline lover or more of a dog person, there is no escaping the furry little cats in Greece, and Nisyros in particular. The quaint, traditional streets an alleys have cats roaming around or seeking shade and rest from the hot summer sun. The cats are either friendly and will come for a stroke, or are skittish and will run away, sadly there was a quite a few cats that looked scraggy, malnourished and had some kind of injury/ disease, but all of them were undenia

    Scotland | DO NOT MISS Devil’s Pulpit, Finnich Glen

    Did you know there is a mystical gorge located in the heart of Scotland? It is a sight to behold. What is it?: A short steep gorge which is up to 70 metres deep, carved by red sandstone from the Carnock Burn. The real name of the gorge is Finnich Glen. The Devil’s Pulpit name comes from a circular rock that looks similar to that of a church pulpit – although presumably the red coloured water / sandstone seemed more satanic than saintly to early visitors. How to get there: The

Our Hobbiton Movie Tour was $88 each. The set was taken down after the first movie but the farmers asked for it to be kept permanently after the next movie set was built as so many tourists were coming to the land in search of Hobbiton anyway. We were spellbound and thought i
