I think Dubai is one of those places that people have pretty strong opinions about. You either love it or you... don't. It's not for everyone and I can say from personal experience that I very much grew to like it. I am currently on my fourth trip and unlike the first or second time here I can honestly say that I now appreciate Dubai in a way I didn't think [...]

In March of this year, I was in New Zealand. I had landed after three months in Australia, ready to commence my working holiday via. Coronavirus was, at the time, a purely European issue - and despite being from the UK, I naively assumed it would never reach the Southern Hemisphere.

Yes, observation wheels like this can now be found all over the world, but Melbourne's is quite unique. Perhaps not by design, but most definitely by character.[...]

I'm pretty sure that every blogpost I ever wrote about Thailand and Bangkok in particular was essentially just one big love fest.
