Over four months on since she died, I also shouldn’t be surprised that I’m finding it so hard to sit here and wring travel words out of my mind; words that are intended to spark joy and inspire adventure. It’s a post that’s been sat unpublished for weeks now. Here’s my unedited experience of what it’s like to travel in the early days of grief. And other days it’s a crutch.

Chances are, if you’re a tourist taking the Baja Ferry from Topolobampo to La Paz, you’ve just rolled off Mexico’s splendid Copper Canyon Train (El Chepe as it’s known locally) and are looking to explore Baja California. California How to Swim with Sea Lions in Baja California How to Drink Tequila Like A Mexican How to take the Baja Ferry from Topolobampo to La Paz As an intro The one I talk about in this post is the route from Topolobampo (the closest ferry terminal to Los Mochis) to La Paz, on the Baja California peninsula.

11 Best Things to do in Austria in Winter I headed out to the beautiful Tirol region where I quickly realised that there are loads of different things to do in Austria during winter other than just skiing. What many people don’t realise is that Tobogganing (‘Sledding’ or ‘Rodeln’ in German) is one of the most popular things to do in Tirol in winter (other than skiing) among the locals and is becoming increasingly popular with tourists too. Ever since hosting the 1964 and 1976 Winter Olympic Games, the Bobsleigh, Luge and Skeleton Track in Innsbruck Igls has become one of the most popular places to visit in Tirol for winter sports enthusiasts. Eat Everything (all round good life advice, but especially in Austria) Between the minus temperatures and labour-intensive activities such as hiking up mountains and tobogganing back down, it’s safe to say I had a pretty hearty appetite during my time in Austria, and the local Austrian dishes I got to try certainly succeeded in satisfying this.

I’ll cover everything from what to wear on the plane to Lapland to what you will and won’t need to pack for your snow trip to what to wear in Finland in the evening. You’ll save a lot of money not having to buy snow clothing – even with cheap ski-wear, you’re going to push hundred(s) of pounds/dollars buying boots and jackets; If you’re not with a tour operator who will supply an all-in-one snow suit, you’ll need both snow pants and a snow jacket. If it’s very cold, the alternative is to wear your normal clothes and pop your snow suit over the top together with your snow boots.
