New Zealand Cabin Crew & COVID-19

Its been eleven days since my last trip and I’ve only just realised now that my flying career was “suspended” the way it began; on a trip to Johannesburg almost five years ago. Seems poetic and I romanticise it slightly but its actually one of the least popular destinations within our network for a number […]

Valentines Day Glam Camping

Trust me, you seriously don’t need any excuse to visit the “Canvas Hut”. It just so happened that my excuse was a beautiful Valentines Day Surprise! I was definitely spoilt this Valentines Day and I’m always ready, willing and able to spend a night away at one of the Canopy Camping sites. We recently discovered […]

Okana Skincare – Two Month Review

My skin care journey has been rocky! It’s been bumpy and fiercely aggravated and thats just talking about the physical state of my skin. Over the course of my life I’ve endured moderate to severe eczema which sometimes appears around my eyes, nose and mouth. Over the past two years I’ve dealt with adult acne, […]

Eat Your Way Through Queenstown

We have officially eaten our way through Queenstown; this now makes me a qualified food connoisseur and critic for the region. If you needed more of a reason to visit Queenstown aside from the picturesque landscapes, the ski slopes, or just the fresh mountain air, heres another reason that’ll keep you coming back for more […]

Photographing our way around Italy

Travelling during peak season throughout Europe means swarms of holiday makers. You might as well accept that all your snaps are going to include you and every other ‘Joe Blow’ from around the world, trying to get the same picture as you! Right, maybe, but its not entirely impossible to get the pictures you want. […]

48 Hours in Osaka, Japan

If you’re cabin crew then you’ll know how rare it is to get two nights anywhere, let alone two nights in Osaka. This felt like the perfect opportunity to bring Torrell on my trip so we could make the most of Osaka together! If you’re not cabin crew then this will be the perfect way […]

I’m about to share with you the perfect “wintervention” to give you a much-needed mid-winter pick me up! Let me help to turn your winter blues into winter WOOHOO’s. I’ve got four days off of work and while that may not seem like that much time, its more than enough for a quick getaway out […]

Happiness Should No Longer Be Your Goal

Why your pursuit of happiness may never make you happy? So commonly frequented on many a’ list of goals, the words “Happiness” or “To be truly happy”. It saddens me to think that so many people feel the need to identify this as a goal to be achieved or an outcome to arrive at. Ironically […]

People You Should Know: Berlin and Nav

Breaking away from tradition, leaving family behind, pushing boundaries and definitely rejecting stereotypes is what this story is about. Berlin and Nav’s story is one worth telling. I met Berlin while training for Qantas and became very good friends, later meeting Nav. I was a part of their wedding and saw them take off on […]

Our Trip to Rotorua

If you follow us on Instagram you would have seen that Torrell and I spent a jam packed three days in Rotorua, getting to take part in some amazing and pretty unique activities while we were down there! Writing this, I can honestly say some of the things we got to do I wouldn’t have […]
