But it can be done - I was there for almost a week, mixing spending a little time at the hotel to relax with exploring. However most of... Continue Reading →
Backroad to Death Valley
Our road trip to Death Valley was a slightly scary one. Think: middle of a desert, baking heat, no phone signal, and off-road tracks through a mountain range. We also had no idea where we were, or how long the road in front of us stretched for. And we had to reach Las Vegas in... Continue Reading →

Cat Cafe Prague
Keeping with the recent cat theme - I can't believe it's taken me so long to write about this little gem that we visited last year on a trip to Prague. It was our last day in the city, and we were looking for somewhere to go before heading to the airport that afternoon. That's... Continue Reading →
