we all had one thing in common on our recent trip to Krabi in Thailand, and that was the desire to kick back and relax for seven rejuvenating days!

Three days in Singapore was barely enough to see all that this wonderful place has to offer. The crème de la crème of all South East Asian cities, Singapore the only island city-state in the world, is clean, tidy, orderly, seamless and is packed with great things to do.

Most Australians visiting Bali stay in the crowded and more popular areas on the south coast at Kuta Beach, Legian and Seminyak, or the surfing spots of Uluwatu and Canggu. Otherwise they may head inland to the central foothills of Ubud for a health retreat and to see wonderful arts and crafts that the area…

Living in Australia we are a long distance from almost everywhere in the world when it comes to popular travel destinations. Unlike the British, who can just pop over to the continent for a weekend escape, skiing the Alps in the winter or heading to the south of Spain for summer. However we are reasonably…

My philosophy is to always experience travel destinations for myself rather than rely on the opinion of other travellers. What may not appeal to some could easily appeal to my tastes, because we all look for something different in a travel experience. This is how I came to spend some time in Nusa Dua, Bali…

For a long time now I’ve wanted to do a health retreat to someplace where I could completely unwind and engage in healthy activities. But I didn’t really want to do a retreat that was all “nuts and berries” with hour upon hour of yoga and meditation. Let’s face it I enjoy an alcoholic drink…

When it comes to bucket list destinations, a lot of people would more than likely choose Europe, Canada or South Africa. Being Australian means we are far away from everywhere when it comes to travel destinations. Fortunately however we’re in close proximity to South East Asia so this is extremely popular with most Aussie travellers….

Once there was a time when I wondered what all the fuss was about Bali. It always appeared to be a holiday destination for Aussie bogans and youngsters running amok. It was associated with drugs, knock-off designer goods, poor quality clothing, cheap beer, dirty beaches, traffic chaos and corruption. I’d heard some bad stories coming…

Are you in need of the only kind of rejuvenation that a Girl’s Bali Getaway can provide? Whether you are hoping to sip on margaritas, laze by an infinity pool, watch the sun set with a cocktail in hand or attend a sunrise yoga class, Bali offers some incredible villas that will be sure to…

Like many of my fellow Australians, I have travelled to tantalising Thailand to see what all the fuss is about. In fact I have had four Thailand holidays staying at four different locations: the islands of Phuket and Koh Samui, the coastal tourist area of Ao Nang in Krabi and the capital city of Bangkok. They are all unique…
