Places I’ve been to
After staying in a hostel in Sandakan in the western part of Sabah, part of the Malaysian side of Borneo. I took a Grab (Southeast Asia’s cheaper and better version of Uber) to the Labuk Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary. Labuk Bay After close to an hour taxi ride, which was still extremely cheap, I arrived […]

As soon as I got off the short flight from Kota Kinabalu to Sandakan which is on the other side of Sabah in Borneo, I immediately caught a Grab (really cheap taxi app that I wouldn’t recommend highly enough) to Sepilok, home to both the Orangutan Rehabilitation and Sun Bear Conservation centres. I have nothing

First of all Heidelberg is such a beautiful town. It’s not a city but it is very big, it sits in a valley between two mountains, allowing a layer of fog to settle, making it annoyingly to get clear photos most of the time but equally giving it a sort of mythical look, especially as

The Autumn of 2016 I had the greatest time ever going around the Western Ghats in India. Luckily the trip was planned by my university and with the assistance of local experts so I was able to get the most out of my visit. After a extremely long flight from Manchester Airport to Goa, via

I’m rather fortunate that the New Forest National Park isn’t too far from my home in Hampshire. The place in the New Forest I like to visit the most is the area around Beaulieu Road train station, due to it’s accessibility for those who can’t drive like myself, and also the many varying habitats and
