Ubud has changed somewhat since I was last here, 7 years ago. It’s much busier but it is still one of my favourite places. From fabulous food, treks to culture, arts and yoga this place really has it all. On the first full day in Ubud I was transported into to world of zen with a Yin Yoga class at the famous Yoga Barn. The most special part of it was that there was a musician on the cello with a loop pedal playing the music for us. The class enabled me to obs...

Well what can I say. Bali really has impressed so far. Having been to the area 7 years ago I knew I wanted to return with a partner with its 'honeymoon' style guest houses and hotels and it's quirky cafes and laid back beach vibe. Our first few nights have been spent in absolute luxury. Oceans views, listening to the waves crash, buffet breakfast until late with views of the fantastic pool.

Two permanent parallel stalls lined the centre with plastic permanent round tables filled...

It still blows me away how they really do have nothing yet their smiles seem like they have everything in the whole wide world. This place real...

29th July, Cambodia, Siem Reap. I woke up this morning at 6.45, kissed Tom, then went in the shower and tied my hair in the standard day time bun. I then washed my face and put on some pyjama like bottoms and an ABC's and Rice school t-shirt. No make up, no straightens, just a normal day time Cambodian style. We then went downstairs to have breakfast. We both discussed the day ahead and once we had worked out that we were going to finish the wall and have some pi...
