Eating Kangaroo
If you go to Australia and don’t see a kangaroo, have you really gone to Australia? I guess we didn’t really go to Australia then. Lauren was a bit bummed that we didn’t see any kangaroos. From the pictures we drew in our heads, there would be Joeys hopping around everywhere. We spent about 3 […]

Diving the Great Barrier Reef
The thing I was most excited for in Australia was diving the Great Barrier Reef. There are lots of tour operators and lots of horror stories. Coral bleaching, 8,000 divers all at once, divers left behind etc. We had heard that going to the “outer reef” was a more enjoyable experience, it had yet […]
Cape Tribulation Beach House
The Cape Trib Beach House is literally located at the end of the road. The mountainous paved two land road up to the top of Queensland ends right at the entrance to The Beach House. We ended up here slightly by accident, we had booked an overnight Daintree Forest tour with a travel agent and […]

Sydney At Night
I decided to pack a real tripod this time around instead of trying to balance my camera on a post or the ground somewhere. I finally have more control over my shots instead of relying on what’s around. I really love night photography. I fell in love with shooting in the dark with film. It was […]
Art Gallery of NSW
After wandering around the Botanic Gardens in Sydney, we came to the Art Gallery of NSW. Its free to enter so there’s no reason not to go. There are a few different floors featuring Art ranging from the classical era all the way up to contemporary art. They also have a collection of Aboriginal and Asian […]
Sydney Ferries
My favorite way getting around Sydney was definitely the ferry. They’re quick, they’re smooth and the views are amazing. The buses from Bondi to Sydney CBD are also good but not as good as the ferry. The ferry system is part of the same public transport system as the buses and trains, so you can […]
Best PAYG SIM Plan in Croatia
Tele2 Tele2 is a pretty large carrier in Croatia and by far had the best PAYG (pay as you go) plan. They offer a pre-paid plan of 50kn or about $7.50 for 3GB of data, 500 minutes for a period of one month. It’s easy to find one of their shops in any of the big […]
Hookers and Drugs on La Rambla
No pictures of prostitutes today, this picture of Barcelona at night will have to do for this article. What is Barcelona’s biggest tourist trap during the day, turns into a seedier trap of sorts at night. Later in the night around 9pm, certain parts of the city begin to awaken. Barcelona as a city operates […]
Popping out of the Clocktower
Trying to snap a selfie out of the window of the St. Pancras Clocktower in London. It had a great view of the city and Kings Cross station below. […]
Driving Through A Spaceship – Can you drive through the chunnel?
Sort of. I was really excited to drive through the Chunnel. I had no idea what it would actually be like. Can you drive through the chunnel? How do you change what side of the road you’re supposed to drive on? Will there be migrants in Calais? It was actually a really simple and sterile […]
