Just like yours, my life gets crazy sometimes. Sometimes it’s all about 7am flights, 8 am shootings and deadlines deadlines deadlines. Mix in living off fast food for days, not sleeping for more than 4 hours a night and some nasty weather and you’ll be ready for a time out in no time.
The days leading up to my stay in Tyrol were just like that. In 3 days I had …
I’ve never been to Las Vegas: the legendary city of sin. Where the city never sleeps and is run on neon lights, casinos, glitter, razzle dazzle and Black Jack… so when given the chance to experience Australia’s answer to Vegas, I of course jumped at it with gusto: gambling, lights, luxury… The Crown Casino sounded like something I could be down with!
Truth be told, I am not a big gambler. …
Do you ever stop and wonder how lucky you are? I don’t know you of course, but if you have a job that pays the bills, a roof over your head and a few friends who love you then that’s a pretty good start. Add the occasional holiday and maybe a few fun nights out on the town and you’re even better off.

That plan didn’t really happen due to some unexpected robberies and too many cocktails in the Catalan capital. But second chances do come along sometimes and …
Imagine you’re on a road trip through Switzerland. It’s constantly snowing (good) but the roads you’re driving on are often slippery (bad).

In your ideal case scenario you then arrive at a beautiful hotel in the midst of an idyllic …
“If you can imagine it, we can make it happen”, says Justin and pours us another glass of prosecco as we watch the sunset above the Andaman sea. The entire scenery is completely unreal. Here we are, Bea and I, sitting at a beautiful private beach on gorgeous design beach chairs, set up for us especially to enjoy the sun hit the ocean while the sky turns orange and pink. …
Arriving in Bangkok is like being in retreat wonderland. Massages, facials, pedicures, manicures, hair extensions – anything to make you more relaxed and more beautiful.

I admit, I did it for the novelty factor, rather than the actual hope of getting silky smooth …
