Places to live

Depending on what's happening in your life at the time, you will find different addresses and types of accommodation to suit those circumstances.

Places to visit

Quite a number of the following pages are all about sights and going places! Both natural and man-made things to look at.

Places to work

In theory your options are only limited by your drive, education and opportunity. If you don't have much education, a whole lot more doors are closed so your drive and enthusiasm will never be seen by an employer!

Living with other people

When you visit someone, it can be vastly different from living with them. Make sure you sort out some of the key things before you move all your gear in and unpack. More...

Where to stay?

If you're travelling on a budget, then you are not going to be satisfied with the accommodation that is available too often. Or at least that was our experience. More...

Will I like that job?

Some people will tell you to work in something where you actually enjoy it, that way you'll really enjoy your job. Other people will tell you to avoid turning your hobby into a job as it will take the fun out of it. A lot of it depends on your own mindset though. We have found that you can enjoy any type of work if you put your mind to enjoying it. More...

Projects in a rental

You have a burning desire to paint or do some landscaping but it's not your place? More...

BYO Accommodation

If some of the places you've stayed in left a lot to be desired, maybe you need to do what Shona and I did - BYO accommodation? More...

Career planning

Gone are the days of attrition, if you want to go places in the business world you will need to keep several irons in the fire. Or will you? More...

Projects we have underway

What some people call landscaping differs to what Shona and I call landscaping, so we pulled it all out and did our own thing in the yard. Almost three years on, and it is still not finished. More...

Things to see

All of us like something different to the next. Maybe you'll like some of these as we certainly do. More...

I hate my job

If you want different then you have to do different. You can't expect things to change if you continue to do everything the same.

All places we recommend will have links to their websites provided where possible.
