Beirut is European style and sauve meets Middle Eastern tradition, hospitality and natural beauty. A country that has seen more than its fair share of turmoil in the past, it’s risen from the shadows to become a safe, exciting Mediterranean city that stands on its own in the region. When I received an amazing opportunity to visit [...]

When you think of Scotland you might think of kilts, haggis, bagpipes and accents you can’t even begin to comprehend right? Or maybe Scotch whiskey. Barrels and barrels of sweet amber nectar from the…. ok I’m getting sidetracked here. Most of those things are pretty accurate about Scotland, and most people when they visit the [...]

48 hours in Perpignan

Perpignan probably isn’t everyone’s first choice for a weekend break in the south of France, but then Perpignan isn’t your average French city. The richly historic city’s near identity crisis as a Catalan stronghold in France means it has the character, food and culture to make it a serious contender for a 48-hour get away, helped further by its easy accessibility from the UK and its welcoming warm Mediterranean climate.

I was recently back in Australia in my hometown of Melbourne, Australia and had a lot of time on my hands. I realised that I’d written heaps on so many cities in Europe but I’d never actually written about my own city. When I found myself with 3 weeks back in “Burn City”, I knew [...]

This week we’re shining a light on Amman, the capital of Jordan. My good mate Fraser Balaam who is a fantastic writer recently returned from a trip that involved Roman ruins, meandering through markets and floating in the Dead Sea. He was champing at the bit to wax lyrical on this peaceful, Middle Eastern gem [...]
