Continued from here My last full day on the island, and the last chance to really explore – time to check out a volcano (again!) The Big Island has its fair share of them, and while the Volcano National Park is the most active, Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea are much taller. And like the […]
Read More Hawaii, Hawaii, USA – Pt8.Continued from here So Day 3 on the big island, and time to tick some more bits of the list. I got dropped off in the morning at the start of the Green Beach trail, and as I had time to kill and didn’t fancy paying to stand awkwardly with other tourists in the deathtrap […]
Read More Hawaii, Hawaii, USA – Pt5Continued from here. The ‘commuter’ terminal in Maui might not be much to see, but the flight between really is. It’s not a scenic flight, but when there’s only eight of you in the plane and you’re flying right next to a volcano over perfect beaches it’s hard not to enjoy it. About twenty minutes […]
Read More Hawaii, Hawaii, USA – Pt4Continued from here So where next? Well I love to climb volcanoes, so I went up the volcano. As much as driving really is cheating, it was still a cool drive, and that hike would’ve taken an awful long time to walk. It definitely the most commercial volcano I’ve been on, with a little gift […]
Read More Maui, Hawaii, USA – Pt3Continued from here As we approached Hana there’s a little bundle of things to see. The village itself is cute, but not too exciting, so we grabbed some food at the street food stop just on the road back out of town. The food trucks here are a really good way to eat on a […]
Read More Maui, Hawaii, USA – Pt2One of the great things about working in the tourism industry is low seasons. Plenty of holiday time, and it’s usually a pretty cheap time to travel. I managed to get a break away from Canada just before Spring Break in the USA, and did my usual search to find the cheapest place I could […]

So much so that some are just a bit too common now, things like escape rooms, beer bike tours etc are now everywhere – what can you do in Budapest and nowhere else? The Hidden Library Hiding […]
Read More Weird Budapest – A Busabout Blog (but it never was)Madrid, the capital of Spain, the cultural and physical centre of the Iberian peninsular and home to some amazing oddities. We all know about the crazy Gaudi architecture in Barcelona, but lets’ explore Spains largest city. The Devil The only known statue of the devil in the world holds a glorious position in the impressive […]
Read More Weird Madrid – 7 Things You Wouldn’t ExpectContinued from here. Elk Falls is a pretty impressive waterfall. I fell in to thinking that the island was pretty small, like I’m sure many tourists do until they google the directions to drive to Tofino, so to see such a sight, I was surprised. It’s so well hidden, completely surrounded by forest, and the […]

I flew into Vancouver airport October 20th, and was whisked straight into the downtown, My first taste of a Canadian HI hostel, something which becomes more significant much later, and the infamous weather of Canada’s’ West Coast in winter. It’s […]
