It's hard to find the words to write about New Zealand when we have visited this amazing country in the same week it has been gripped by terror and tragedy in the light of the mosque shooting in Christchurch. I wanted to share a blog on the day but couldn't express my feeling in the… Continue reading New Zealand – United in Grief and United in Love.

Cruising the New Zealand Fjords
During this year of travel I am putting some big ticks on my bucket list whilst at the same time getting to discover new places which I didn't even know existed until recently. Now don't get me wrong, I always knew there were fjords in New Zealand but I couldn't have told you the names… Continue reading Cruising the New Zealand Fjords
Sydney – Visit the places which you’ve never heard of….
I have already discovered during my various trips to the U.S.A. over the years that some of the most beautiful places are the ones your have never heard of. The rural towns and villages are where you see ‘real life’ away from the typical tourist attractions and cities. Often I have only come to discover… Continue reading Sydney – Visit the places which you’ve never heard of….
Singapore – add it to the bucket list!
I admit that out of all the places I have wanted to visit Singapore has never been on my bucket list, in all honesty I didn't know a huge amount about it. However whilst doing some research on a world schooling forum several parents commented on how safe it was and how much there was… Continue reading Singapore – add it to the bucket list!
We went to the cinema!!!!
I know, I know, it doesn't sound that exciting does it?? but Cameron quite firmly pointed out to me yesterday "you choose what we get to do everyday and I never get to choose". He was pretty much right! Although I do try to think of things which I hope he will enjoy and engage… Continue reading We went to the cinema!!!!

Yes he is, and I am lucky to be sharing it with him and getting to see the world through his eyes. There are lots of things which I want him… Continue reading We can’t help everybody…..
Day 1 of World Tour
Jet lagged in Kuala Lumpur! Don't worry I won't be writing blogs every day - but the big adventure has begun......YAAAAY!! So many people have been saying what a long month January has been and certainly for me it seems to have dragged on forever. There was just so much to do with turning around… Continue reading Day 1 of World Tour
2019 – The itinerary so far
There were no New Years Resolutions for me this year, a) I usually break them within the first month b) I have learnt that any new day is a chance to start again, we don't have to wait until 1st January. I am also possibly one of the few successful business people who NEVER set… Continue reading 2019 – The itinerary so far
Goodbye 2018 – Hello 2019
As I look back at 2018 and prepare to sail into a New Year I do so with very mixed feelings. I still have deep grief at losing two very dear friends to cancer this year, Frances (46) and Marian (67) - both taken far too soon and neither of whom I dreamt on 1st… Continue reading Goodbye 2018 – Hello 2019
