Why Hostels Need Kitchens
This is a sweet guest post by my delightful friend Mike over at Margyleunbound! Be a dear and stop in and say hello! One of the most interesting parts about visiting different places is the food they eat – so it’s understandable if we want to eat out as much as we can to soak up the experience. The only problem is, particularly for long-term travellers, this can really add up quickly resulting in less money for other essentials. Plus, sometimes it’s nice to just whip something up instead of putting on pants and venturing into the streets. There are a lot of reasons why hostels don’t have…

Everyone seems to know someone who has taught English overseas – there are so many places to go!

Three Quirky Things About Australia
It should come as no surprise to anyone that knows me that I really LOVE Australia. I mean seriously, what’s not to love? The weather is beautiful, the people are so sweet there are so many amazing animals and the boys are easy on the eyes… yeah! Lol But something I realized after living here for a while is that, well, some things are just a bit strange down here! Like, not in a bad way just that it’s kinda crazy to think about that being someone’s normal everyday life. I always got a kick out of teasing my Australian friends about their weirdness and for the most part, especially…
