After getting to Argentina (which you can read here), we’re finally off sailing the Drake Passage to Antarctica. Truth be told, it’s part of the trip that we were the most anxious about. Especially as this crossing can take up to 48 hours. I’ll explain why. Before that, just to quickly recap, so far we’d … Continue Reading

*Due to the large size, this post has been split into two parts. Click here for Part 2. It started, like most of our travel plans usually do, when Yaya and I got itchy feet over dinner. Somehow, Denmark always seemed to be on my; Yes, I will go there soon, type of country. Yet, … Continue Reading

A return to Lisbon was something that was always on the cards. It’s just one of those cities that is so easy to fall in love with, fall in step with and quite frankly, feel at home in. (I long since added it to the list of cities I’d happily move to). And so, with … Continue Reading
Our trip to Croatia was the very first international trip we’d taken in months (for obvious reasons) and it did feel a bit surreal to finally be travelling internationally again. The airport was pretty quiet, the lounge the same but somehow our flight was pretty full. Anyway, a few hours after, we landed in sunny … Continue Reading
