There are very few things that make me weak at the knees, but when they do… I melt, them being Cheese, Chris Hemsworth and wine. So when I found out there was a Cheese Festival at Prahran Market, I was more than hyped. It was a typical Melbourne day with flashes of pouring rain mixed…
Backpacker Baking
So you’re a backpacker, you’ve finished the East Coast of Australia, found yourself in some hippie commune in Byron Bay. But you’ve ran out of money, reached your chosen city and settled into a shared house and got some crappy sales job. Who says you can’t bake on a budget? Try these super tasty,…
A Pommy’s Experience of Splendour
I was feeling a little bummed out to have left the incredible line-up of English summer festivals for a winter in Australia, so when I was offered the opportunity to attend Splendour, I pounced at the chance. I was assured by all my new Australian pals that it would blow my mind, and I certainly…
Backpacking breakfast on a budget
Backpacker food isn’t renown for its culinary delights, think pot noodles, ends of bread and the free food bin. I’m gonna show you that you don’t need to survive on the blandest and most basic foods to keep within your budget! You can make delicious (and healthy) nosh whilst travelling, without breaking the bank. Avocado…
Overdosing on beach bums
So Australia, the land of some serious beefcakes (the sexy kind), truly brutal banter and of course the thing my pale english body needs the most, sunshine. Sydney was, to be completely honest, just another city, don’t get me wrong I had a wonderful time but it was just too much like London and I…

How to Treat your Mum on Mother’s Day!
Right first thing’s first don’t be hungover. If you are hanging out your arse then just have some vitamin C, a pro plus and some ibuprofen and stop feeling sorry for yourself. We never give our mumma’s enough credit, when really they are bloody fabulous. Mum keeps asking me to take the bins out, do…
It’s Red Nose Day!
I know, I know I don’t have a red nose on but I bought a pretty snazzy Red Nose Day T-Shirt and the money does go to charity! I couldn’t find a red nose in town just shows how charitable Wimbledon is. Bloody Awful. Anyways, when you were a kiddy, I remember Red Nose Day…
