Siargao Day 4 - 1st July: This was the best day on the island yet. It started with a 5am surf at Cloud 9. The waves were staggeringly perfect, the water warm, the vibe phenomenal. Even though I'm the furthest thing from a morning person, you can't help but be stoked when you're awake at 5am on a hot and humid tropical paradise, the suns already out and crisping your shoulders and nose, there's a handful of travellers and locals combined all trying to score the waves and cheering each other on. After the surf I treated myself to a delicious cappuccino and an Asian spicy fried rice breakfast with an egg on top at Kermit resort. When Georgie, Harry and Ellie woke up they had a quick bite to eat and we all got ready for a day trip to Sohoton Cove. Things you need to know about your trip to Sohoton Cove: It takes about 1.5 hours to get there by a really loud engined boat (travel expense: 5000 pesos) While they do have snacks available there (the most incredible chocolate I...

Siargao Night 1: I finally arrived! Touching down onto Siargao Island was such a relief after the flight being cancelled the day before and having to find my own way for a night.  I should have started this post saying, I finally arrived and I'm alive!!! I could have kissed the ground when I got out of the airport transfer car and to Kermit Surf Resort. For a chilled out Island, they drive like crazy! The hooter is their favourite thing, I'm convinced. There's stray dogs wondering the roads, balls swaying to and frow if not the swollen nipples drooping down to the floor. Kids seem to think the road is their playground - in fact, everyone does. Be it on bicycles, scooters, tuk-tuks or foot, there's always something to dodge on those windy little lanes.  Arriving at Kermit I was shown to my room, equipped with full airconditioning, before enjoying this Asian style breakfast of fried rice with an egg on top. It was divine!  One of the guys that work their sat me and a coup...

Hi everyone! I've got some really big news for all of you.  Many of you have been reading my blog for months, if not years and putting up with my countless posts based on travel.  I have one of the worst cases of wanderlust known to man and over the past year I haven't been able to pursue it.  Backpacking and camping my way through Europe in 2013 left me penniless! I've been working my butt off ever since, saving away as much as possible at the end of each month.  What I saved went directly into my travel account and now I can finally say that all of this hard work has paid off!! Yesterday I booked and paid for my flights to the Philippines and to Bali!!!!!!! My first big stop after a twelve-ish hour flight from Johannesburg, South Africa, is Hong Kong. There are no direct flights from South Africa to the Philippines or Bali so you have to catch a connecting flight from another country. I was lucky enough to book my connecting flight to Cebu, Philippines from Hong Ko...
