‘Dear Diary… today I saw the world’

Yeah, I’ve been pretty lax with keeping up with sharing my travelling tales so for that, please accept my sincerest apologies. However, since my last post I have had the most amazing time in Thailand, which truly is ‘the land of smiles’. I’ve passed through Malaysia, dipped into Singapore before jetting down to New Zealand to meander my way up to Australia.

The big travelettes survey

In December a good number of our readers took part in a survey with many questions we had, answers to which are hard to come by.

This is the evaluation of our survey. The shoes represent percentages of people (for example 3 shoes equals 30%).
