I'm pretty lost for words right now. As an Irishman, you can be pretty sure I know my drink and my bars but wow! This was just mad. I've travelled over 90,000km on this trip and in all the cities and in

I've travelled over 80,000km while travelling the last 10 months. Having arrived in Tokyo a few days ago, I wanted to see what the most unusual, bizarre and weird things that were available. I've done

I've travelled over 84,000 kilometers, takes 37 flights, visited 52 cities (infograph below) but never have I truly found myself with nowhere to stay. Firstly, for a budget backpacker, Seoul is definitely

There are plenty of terms I've used to describe my condition! "Travel Bug", "Wanderlust" or "Itchy Feet" are all terms I've used to describe my ever lasting hunger for more

Not so long ago, me along with a jolly group of my volunteers that help us out with morning raves in Dublin hit the streets to spread love on a morning commute to work. Morning rave, I know what you are
