Luxuriate in the new Club Med Villas, Mauritius
Club Med opened its latest level of luxury in the form of private villas in Mauritius. I’ve just spent 6 days wallowing in the glory. It’s fancy pants and far away, but ohhhh so fab. Here’s what to expect…

Delicious Mauritius
When I was offered a trip to Mauritius I had to sort a few things out. Firstly, where the heck is Mauritius, how do you get there and what should I pack?! Unexpectedly my research also pulled up that this country was home to the dodo. Poor dead dodo…

Happy Birthday Bob Marley!
Bob Marley would have celebrated his 66th birthday this Waitangi Day and a couple of years ago I made the pilgrimage to his tiny, run down village of Nine Mile in Jamaica. Robert Nesta Marley sure came from humble surrounds. There’s still no running water in the buildings around here, the locals all pile over [...]
