A Week in Guadalcanal: Notes from the Solomon Islands

October 1, 2020 by Dave2 Comments

Where are the Solomon Islands? This country is located in the Coral Sea close to Papua New Guinea and about a 3 hour flight north east of Brisbane Australia. Typically not a cheap destination, either flights, hotels, car rental or food (which in our experiences, was basic and bland). Known as the 'hapi isles' for its friendly people, for its marine life, and significant World War II history. The main airport is in Honiara, the capital city. I … [Read more...]

The Crown & Garter in Berkshire

September 10, 2020 by Samantha PriestleyLeave a Comment

Deep in the Berkshire countryside, through winding narrow lanes, in a small village named Inkpen, there is a 17th century inn called The Crown and Garter. This inn has a deep and sometimes dark history, connected to a nearby gibbet high on a hillside that tells us of a time long ago when our punishments for crimes were brutal and ghoulish. But thankfully that’s all behind us and this is now an area of bright bursting flowers pots and English … [Read more...]

Hands-on Ecuadorian Artisans Are Hands-Down Amazing

August 18, 2020 by Tom Bentley2 Comments

Photo by Alice Bourget When I was around 10, I tagged along to my brother’s Boy Scout meeting, where one activity was making art projects. Given instruction, I sprayed a clothespin with glittery red paint and spelled my name out on the top bar with glued alphabet macaroni. That might be my highest artistic achievement, so perhaps I don’t have a credible basis to judge the quality of the crafts I’ve seen in Ecuador over the past month. But … [Read more...]

Travelling and living in Melbourne, Australia

August 1, 2020 by Kristina JamesLeave a Comment

Several years ago I spent a year travelling and living in Melbourne, Australia. One of Australia's great cities - it is not to big and not to small either. And I was attracted to the friendly people; it wasn't hard to make new friends at all. My time in the country was quite an adventure - living in a new place with new sights, sounds, and experiences. It did remind me of my time in Canada a little bit - with numerous similarities between … [Read more...]
