It Stopped Feeling Like Travelling and Started Feeling Like Surviving
The brutal reality check that hits every backpacker flying from SE Asia into Australia. The barman at the first pub I walked into after dropping my bag slid a schooner across the bar and said nine dollars. I handed over a tenner and stood there waiting for change that wasn't coming. He'd already moved on. I picked up the glass and did the maths in my head the way you do when you already know the answer isn't good. Here's what Southeast … [Read more...]

Discover Amsterdam from the Water
Amsterdam is easy to love on foot, but the canals show how the city really works.

I landed in Barcelona with a broken suitcase wheel, a dead phone, and absolutely no idea what I was doing. It was my first solo trip to Spain, and I'd spent weeks reading guides that all said the same thing: "Visit the Sagrada Familia before 9 AM for the best lighting." Helpful? Sure.
