Hey Reader! Having discussed how easy (or difficult) it is to live abroad in my last email, I wanted to share with you my experience of living in Madrid as an English teacher for a year.

Hey there Reader, Do you have plans this year to visit a new city (or country) that you’ve never been to before? One of my favourite aspects of travel is discovering a completely new city and its local culture. But knowing where to go and what to see can be complicated and overwhelming. That’s why I always book a walking tour on my first day in a new city. Walking tours are a perfect way to see the main tourist attractions and learn all about the city’s history from an expert guide in an hour...

Hey Reader! Have you ever had the chance to visit multiple countries in just 1 day? It sounds an insanely ambitious idea, but in Europe it’s certainly possible. That’s what I did when a travel buddy convinced me to walk across Liechtenstein in less than one day. Read my blog post: How To Walk Across Liechtenstein In One Day: The Complete Guide We started in Salzburg, Austria, caught a train to the Liechtenstein border where we spent several hours hiking across this magnificent country, before...

Hey Reader! Let me start this email by wishing you a very happy new year! I hope 2025 brings you all that you want and more. What’s the best country you’ve visited where the cuisine totally blew you away? For me it has to be South Korea. South Korea has become a foodie’s paradise in recent times, so knowing which food spots to hit when visiting is a must. I was very lucky to be given a food tour of Seoul from an actual local on my very first day in the country. Read my blog post for all the...
