Pinterest is full with tricks and hacks to make our travels easier and simpler … But to me most of these ideas haven’t changed my life – they made me philosophically analyse them and question myself, and I came to the conclusion that they possibly made my life more complicated when they were…
Wherever you are visiting in the world, there is always somewhere you can go where you will find great things to do for free. I’ve written about such places in cities both cheap and expensive, and now it’s the turn of WrocÅ‚aw in Poland. Here’s your first free experience before…
Every Wednesday I would post a Wishlist Wednesday with the most sought-after items I’ve laid my eyes on. On Twitter I would try to get the brands’ attention by using their handle. Bring on those freebies! Obviously I would devote post after post to the Alexander Wang for H&M collection….
I must confess. I skipped my update last month. I know, I am hanging my head in shame. My excuse is I may have had a bit of bloggers’ block or possibly hating everything I type, but looking back I might have been overreacting so I thought I’d share February…
It’s Friday! And for the blogosphere this means its time to link back to other people’s posts (often the ones you actually wish you’d come up with yourself!). Why do we do this? Mainly because traffic wise Friday seems to be the worst day to share new original content. So,…
Before I talk about more of the awesome things I did in Berlin, I want to take a look at the less awesome or disappointing things I’ve done, because everyone runs across those. Just the things that weren’t for me. If you are a frequent reader you might have noticed…

I also love hearing other travelers’ stories…those forever will be some of my best memories abroad.

Great list! Good reminder that sometimes the little things make a world of a difference.
This reminds me so much when we went backpacking on Southeast Asia! How I miss traveling!
Travel sure makes one feel grateful for the little things, huh?
It’s JPei
And it also makes the little things grateful for travel 😀
Love the feeling of getting off the plane!
I love this idea. It’s so true. Travel itself is such a magical experience. You have to remember all the little moments. A night alone in a 12 bed hostel is a luxury! :] // itsCarmen.com ☼ ☯
you are right the best things in travel are free
Gaining a beautiful sunrise oh yes, I normally photograph these. An upgrade on a flight never managed it but well done, on a ten hour flight even better. I flew on my birthday and still it didn’t happen. Enjoyed reading this post Lucy x
Such a great list! All these things are awesome, expecially the snore free hostel room!
Ah man this makes me want to go travelling so bad. Great post, as always. xx

Yup! Ironically, travel showed me how to enjoy the little, free things in life, and how to cherish moments we often take for granted while at home. Great post.
