Worldwide Backpacker and Adventure Tourism Consultant
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 – Pt5Budapest is the kind of place you might expect some weird things, and you’d be right about that. 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)After the stop in Chicago (read that blog here), my main destination was Mexico, the Yucatan Peninsular in particular. I was hoping to experience some culture, some great food and of course a bit of the beach life as well. I was happy to find that it exceeded my expectations on all counts. To make […]

It’s a lot more than Aussies running away, bullfights and sangria, so here’s how to make the most of it. There’s two main parties of the festival, the opening […]

Val Claret dominated there, with Saloon and DropZone offering student friendly prices and plenty of others happy to host us for a few hours. Some dishing out […]
Read More Tignes with Wasteland Ski and BUSC: Part 2So my last trip out to France for the season was to Tignes for three weeks. The first week was with WastelandSki and Ciren Snow, part of the RAUSS. The last two week were with BUSC for their Main Event. Tignes itself is split into a few villages spreading up the valley. The main is […]
Read More Tignes with Wasteland Ski and BUSC: Part 1Cornwall is full of pretty little beaches and coves, Constantine and Treyarnon offer some nice walks for those not wanting too much. There’s a little place to park around at Constantine, a beach which is popular with surfers throughout the county (on the days when the waves are rolling in the right way of course) […]
Read More Constantine and Treyarnon BayA somewhat more challenging walk than the previous excursion is the loop from the hamlet of Treen on the hill between two valleys and the beaches at the bottom of those valleys: Penberth and Porthcurno The walk starts off across typical hilly Cornish countryside down into the valley, then alongside the stream that leads out […]
Read More Cornwall – Treen to Penberth to Porthcurno ft: The Minack TheatreI was very fortunate to spend two weeks in Les Arcs, first with Snowboard Club UK, and the second looking after Bath Uni. The resort area is actually split between about 5 smaller towns and villages that make up Les Arcs. Each town has it’s own character and clientele, appealing in different ways to the […]
