10 travel moments that restored our faith in humanity. Stories of kindness from life on the road.
All my friends are buying houses and having babies, yet I'm about to embark on my fourth big trip travelling. Here's how it feels to give it all up again to travel in your thirties.
The emerald swimming holes of Shkodar are absolutely spectacular yet you won’t find a single tourist there. Whether you’re looking for a wide sun drenched stretch of river to bask on, or a tight canyon swim, you’ll find it along the Kanioni i Kirit. We’re sharing a few of our favourite spots with directions and what swimming in the pools is like.
Filikuri Beach is the kind of beach you dream about visiting when you’re planning a trip to Albania, with vibrant turquoise water and giant stripey cliffs, it’s picture perfect. This is a wild beach without a sunlounger in sight and all the more spectacular for it if you ask us! We’re sharing how to get there, including a few options you might not have thought about yet, and what to expect from the beach itself.
The Mount Iron Track is the perfect sunrise or sunset walk in Wanaka. The view from the top is spectacular and the climb is not too long or steep, which is perfect if you’re walking part of the way in the dark. We’re sharing everything you need to know about the walk, including difficulty and track conditions.
Oamaru is best known for its loveable penguin population, both little blue penguins and yellow-eyed penguins and viewing them in the wild is one of the country’s great delights. However, there is plenty more on offer in Oamaru for those that choose to stay a few days longer, including glorious beaches, glow worms, a quirky museum, craft breweries and a very unique museum.
The dramatic canyon and waterfall complete with deep emerald swimming hole would make Nivice Canyon a must visit alone. Add in the fact it’s still wonderfully off the beaten track and you’re highly likely to get it to yourself and you have one of the best adventures close to Gjirokaster. We’re sharing how to find it and what to expect from the trail and swimming at the falls.
