Caz and Craig have been traveling and living around the world since 1997.
Last weekend, I completed a freelance travel writing course with the Sydney Writers Centre. It was a two day intensive course where I learned the tricks to freelance writing and was armed with many tools and strategies to help me start pitching to print publications to sell my travel stories. Why not? You can listen to the video below where I tell you why I really loved the course and
I never stop being in awe of those people who have found a way to travel the world doing what they love. It is vital that in life we do what we love, and if you can combine that will travel and exploration then you have found what I consider to be Utopia. Craig and I have had the dream for many years. We of course have been travelling the
We turned off the highway at the signpost marked Cessnock. Leaving the concrete expanse behind we now ventured into the lush valleys of the Hunter Valley region, only a couple of hours north of Sydney. We were on our way to stay with our wonderful friends Carps and Kelly for the evening before our hot air balloon trip in the early morning. Cessnock, or Necknock, as Carps likes to say
One of my favourite natural phenomena are sunsets. Closing out the day with a cold beer or frozen cocktail while watching the sun blaze up the evening sky in a final farewell for the day is just magical. Sunsets remind you of how simple and beautiful life is and allows you to finish the day with gratitude. Here are a collection of our sunsets pictures around the world. Grab a
There isn’t a city I feel safer in than London. This is a result of my two years living in London, even during the time when IRA bomb scares and actual bombings were going on. On my first day in London, an announcement came on the Tube that the next station was closed due to a security alert. A security alert meaning a suspicious package had been left behind. The
First of all, I want to start off by saying how sorry I am that you have had your world turned upside down with the flooding of your beautiful state. I wish there were some way we could turn back the clock to make some changes so it never had to happen. But we can’t. And I know that doesn’t make you feel any better. I wish I could do
Okay so how many readers have I just lost? Before you go scampering for cover from this left wing communist, you can be rest assured I am no longer affiliated with the Socialist party,or any political party for that matter. Politics and a peaceful and happy world don’t really mix. Since my short-lived time in the Socialist party, I have discovered that any one political party will never create a
You go traveling around the world and you think you are free to be yourself because no body knows who you are right? Wrong. The world is not as large as you really think, and the more you start to travel the more you realize that the world is tiny. Having unexpected encounters with people you know and random six degrees of separation experiences is not as rare as you
Hiking through a National Park at 2am under a full moon tends to get your mind thinking about life. This is where I found myself on Saturday night. As I scrambled across rocks and laughed with strangers about how ridiculous we must have looked dancing around with our glow sticks on Wedding Cake Rock, I thought how travel is a unifying bond that does not discriminate or judge.

Here on y travel blog, we are all about the travel. We love it. It is our passion and the thing that drives us to live life on purpose. But we are also aware that not everyone desires to live a life of travel. Everyone has different hopes and dreams.
