90 weeks. Yikes. That’s a figure that puts this unquantifiable journey into a numerical perspective. My 90th week on the road was spent in Bali. Yes, I am still here. I’ve made Bali my base for this three-week period in an attempt to recover my body, catch up on work and chill. It hasn’t been …

After an epic but hectic three weeks with my workshop and trip to tropical north Queensland on the media campaign, I needed a second to breathe. There isn’t a much better place for a digital nomad to do so than in Canggu Bali. In this, the 89th, edition of ‘The Weekly’, I’m going to take …
What a freaking whirlwind! As 10 content creators and bloggers, we headed to the Nusa Islands intent on exploring, adventuring and learning the trade of blogging. We returned as a team that will support each other into the rest of 2018 and beyond. We returned having shared knowledge with each other on topics from photography to media …
The Nusa Islands Blogger Workshop has finally arrived. At the end of 2017, I opened up applications for my first ever workshop. 500 people applied and I chose the seven bloggers and content creators who I thought had an adventurous spirit and were committed to working hard to becoming a digital nomad. Fast-forward to March …
50 Awesome Lombok Photos to inspire you to get you across to this awesome island in Indonesia! I spent almost two weeks exploring the waterfalls, beaches and viewpoints of Lombok. I stayed in Senaru and Kuta Lombok. One of the highlights was making the journey up Mount Rinjani. You should check out my full guide …
Exhausted both physically and mentally, our squad labored down the hills during the final moments of the Mt Rinjani trek. We were glad to be back in civilization (of sorts) with a shower and I had a real pillow again rather than my muddy shoes. Rinjani was awesome but it definitely took it out of …
Tropical islands are everywhere. They often have an amazing atmosphere combining island vibes with tranquility. However, it’s not often you end up on an island that seems more like a fantasy, a natural theme park, and a land of pure magic. Lombok is a tropical island just off of Bali, accessible by plane or ferry. …
At times my life probably seems like a non-stop vacation and for the most part, it is! However, you still get tired, have a backlog of work and feel like you need a break from noodles and vegetables. I have a week break between my Sri Lanka media trip, which just ended and my next …
I woke up on day 11 wondering how 24 hours could be better spent than our diving adventure and exploration of Piaynemo the day before. Somehow we almost managed to match this incredible experience with another crazy day of unexpected wonders. After breakfast at the Raja Ampat Dive Resort, we all crammed on the boat …
I’m overwhelmed right now. I know why I’m overwhelmed and this positive overload of emotions is under control. For the last two years, Raja Ampat has been on my bucket list. I had seen photos all over social media and the internet and heard that it was quite isolated. I had never even considered diving …
Our first full day in Raja Ampat was quite relaxed by the standards of this adventurous trip. We did 3 scuba dives throughout the day and visited a secluded island for lunch. I’ve figured out my favorite part of scuba diving is watching sharks, of which we saw many today. We also spotted large schools …
Day 7 & Day 8 on The Trip of Wonders were transit days so I combined them into one post here on my blog and on Facebook. We were heading from Flores to Raja Ampat, an unlikely route that required four flights in two days. I think I’ve flown on over 40 fights already this …
