Travelling to Porto!

Bidding farewell to Daniel’s family, we travelled two hours by car to Porto, Portugal. Daniel’s cousins graciously offered (code – insisted) to drive us across the border, from Spain to Portugal. It took 2.5 hours by car. Such a short distance, and yet we were in a new country! Blink, and you would almost miss the […]Read Post ›

Galicia!

Bidding a fond farewell to Andalucia, we boarded our high-speed train bound for Ourense, Galicia! The purpose of our journey to this region (in the north-west of Spain) was to visit Daniel’s family, who call Galicia, and more specifically Ourense, home! Apprehensive due to our limited Spanish (and zero Galician – the regions official language), […]Read Post ›

Ronda & Sevilla

RONDA After a short journey by train from Granada, we arrived in Ronda, one of the most historic and romanticised towns in Spain. Constructed atop a dramatic escarpment, there are views aplenty looking down from the clifftop, especially with the Sierra Nevada mountains visible in the distance. As luck would have it, our AirBnb, a […]Read Post ›

Cordoba & Granada

Leaving Barcelona, we ventured south to the Andalucia region – famous for the heat, tapas, flamenco dancing, bull fighting, and of course, the siesta! In this region the streets are lined with orange trees – a citrus aroma for the senses! In Andalucia, the majority of shops and businesses close from 1.30pm until 5.30pm each […]Read Post ›

Barcelona

  The city of inspiration for the delectable tunes of Mr Sheeran; Barcelona! We arrived by train, a short 2.5 hours from Madrid. Again, on foot we set out to explore the city! The streets were a beautiful mix of gothic and modern architecture; cobbled narrow and windy roads, lined with alfresco dining options and […]Read Post ›

Madrid

After saying goodbye to our new family in Peru, we travelled for over 40 hours and arrived in Madrid, Spain. Anxious and eager to see everything, we ventured out on foot each day; camera ready and charged. The narrow streets of Madrid are so colourful that it felt like a shame to catch a bus, […]Read Post ›

​Ccaccaccollo & the Inca Trail

Leaving Cusco behind, we journeyed further into the Andean mountainside toward our next destination, a local village called Ccaccaccollo. In 2005, our tour company set up a partnership with the village as the local government was not able to provide sufficient aid to this community. The partnership aims to empower women in the community by […]Read Post ›

Chivay & Cusco

Our journey to the town of Chivay began with an earlier than expected 5AM departure from Arequipa, due to a planned political strike blocking a major road within the region. Along the way we reached one of the highest points in Peru, approximately 5000 metres above sea level. We also saw some amazing volcanoes, including […]Read Post ›

Nazca & Arequipa

After a 10 hour bus ride, we arrived wearily in Nazca at approximately 9.30pm. For 50PEN (equivalent of $20.00AUD) you can buy a whole roasted BBQ chicken, large salad and a serve of chips which four people could not finish. Whether it was the cooking or our hunger we are not sure, but it was […]Read Post ›

Lima

We are now three days into our adventure and we honestly could not have picked a better first destination; Lima, Peru! Lima is the capital of Peru, with over 11 million people. There are 43 districts in Lima, each one with it’s own vibe and culture. As our hostel was in Barranco, most of our […]Read Post ›
