During our third and final Helpx stay, we had the pleasure of working one hour north of Rome on a beautiful property owned by a lovely lady by the name of Tosi. While working on her property for two weeks, Tosi showed us many beautiful spot well off the tourist trails which had me in …

All aboard for the Amalfi Coast
Amongst the horde of tourists which frequent Southern Italy’s prized stretch of coastline, Amalfi, Capri and Positano are three of the most picturesque, must see spots you could ever imagine. Here are a few pics from our week long stay on the Amalfi Coast. Enjoy.
Fast forward to FOTSUN
So chronologically speaking, I should be blogging about Italy’s stunning Amalfi Coast. But the harsh reality is that I’m actually back on home soil down under and showing some mild symptoms of “post travel blues”. Luckily for us we had the opportunity to road trip up to the coast to Port Macquarie to my favourite of the …
Cinque Terre
Cinque Terre, or Five Lands, if its translated (although far less impressive), is one of the most stunning stretches of coastline we visited on our trip, which is located in northern Italy.Monterosso, Vernazza, Manarola, Corniglia, Riomaggiore are the five villages which make up the Cinque Terre region and are linked by hiking trails as well …
Venice and the Fondolas…oops I mean Gondolas…
Ahh Venice, one of the most romantic locations in the entire world. Once you’re off the touristic trails, you can find those dreamy backstreets, surrounded by an interlocking maze of canals, that you have always dreamt about walking down with a loved one. One hot tip to mothers, boyfriends and husbands…be wary of the uber …
Flocking to Florence
We managed to visit the city of Florence in Italy’s north on a couple of different occasion during our travels of Italy. Battling it out on the streets with the throng of tourist, gypsies street merchants and their affiliated merch (including the ever so stylish, old school penis apparel see examples below), there is plenty …
The Natural Amusement Park
No words that I can type can do Corsica the justice its deserves. The small island located off the bottom of France is the most naturally picturesque place which I’ve ever had the chance to visit. Our two week stay was nowhere near long enough. Enjoy.
And the winner is Barcelona
While traveling around the world I’ve had the pleasure of visiting some amazing cities. But I’ve always struggled to find one that I’d enjoy living in, until I arrived in Barcelona. Barcelona is a eclectic Spanish city that must be injecting something delightful into the water because the place is filled to the brim with great …
More than meets the eye in Malaga
When we arrived into Malaga, my expectations we’re at an all time low. Lets just say it didn’t have a great overall review from the travellers i’ve met along the way. All I knew was that it was on the coast (a big plus in my books) and it had a big industrial port. In …
Sweating it up in Seville
I never thought anything thing would ever compare to Morocco, temperature wise. Turns out that Seville gives Morocco a run for its money as the hottest and sweatiest place on earth. Really though. Seville or Sevilla as the Spanish call it, is approximately 3 hours north of Algeciras at the bottom of Spain and has about …
