You’ve got to give it to the Beach Break festival organisers. With only a week to go, a last minute decision was made to move the sold out student event from Polzeath Cornwall to Port Lympne safari park in Kent…surely this was going to disappoint the 10,000 beach lovers? Quite the opposite...

I’m excited about the prospect of South Africa hosting the 2010 Soccer World Cup. This will be the first Soccer World Cup to be hosted by an African country, and people in South Africa have World Cup fever. The challenge for South Africa now is to tackle problems such as crime, poverty and lack...

One of the most culturally vast cities in the world, Rome offers tourists a plethora of things to see and do, whether it’s marvelling at the architecture of the Romans, gawping vast amounts of paintings and sculptures or simply trying real Italian pizza. (Dominoes just doesn’t do it justice.) Rome’s...

‘I love Sweden. The entire world should be like Sweden. They all like to drink and get naked, and the women are hot. I can’t think of a better nation on the planet.’ Although I agree with the essence of Drew Curtis’ view, I did not experience the finer details when I personally visited...

Paris: the city of lights, amour and suicidal driving. As Valentines graces us and the onus for those in relationships to get away for the weekend diminishes, Paris remains a city that lives and breathes all year round.

When arriving in New Zealand, it is surprisingly easy to believe you are now on the other side of the world after a twenty four hour flight and a two hour stopover in L.A.
