This episode I did something I haven't done before. I reached out to a listener who follows our instagram page to be a guest. I had no idea of her job, her background or where she was living. I wanted to find out what was happening around the world and how others were dealing with COVID life.

COVID-19 has shut down the travel industry. For a while the thought of travel made me sad and I wasn't able to talk about it. I wanted to know how people around the world were handling the shut down. I invited a very dear friend of mine, Heather Reed who lives in Chicago in the United States to join me. 
We talk about the differences between how Australia and United States have dealt with the virus. The rules and regulations each Country has and how personally Heather is dealing with the isolation. We discuss the health care system in both Countries in detail. I also ask Heather for a recipe of something she has been cooking during her time in isolation.

This episode I visit the Hunter Valley Wine region. If you are a wine lover like I am, then this episode is for you. 
The Hunter Valley wine region is about 120km (75mi) North of Sydney, NSW, Australia. It is the oldest wine region in Australia with around 150 Cellar doors to visit. Knowing this I had no idea where to start or which ones to visit. We had one day in the area and we wanted to visit as many as possible without the stress of driving.
I found the iHop Hunter Valley hop on and hop off bus tour. WOW, what a fabulous way to visit the Hunter. I go into detail about how the booking process works, what the tour entails and which cellar doors we visited. I rate every Cellar door and talk about some of the amazing information I received from some very knowledgeable staff. I highly recommend visiting this beautiful part of Australia.

I'm BACK! And next week I have a ripper of an episode for you all.
I'm so sorry that I disappeared without letting you know I was going on a break. This episode is to explain what happened and why I was away for so long. I wish I could say that I went on an amazing trip and was having a ball. Unfortunately that was not the case. I get emotional as this was a hard episode to record, but I thought it was only fair that I explain why my break was so long. I open up about my personal struggle, which then finally ended in surgery. I talk about the health care system in Australia and how it works and all the disasters happening around the world at the moment. 
I have added links below that I mention in the episode for those that may want to find out more information or donate.

The Amazon Jungle was a bucket list location for me. This week I explain how I went to the Amazon on a budget from Quito, Ecuador. 
When I was researching the Amazon I found it so expensive, confusing and couldn't figure out how to actually get there. I understand why. It was not easy, but it's so worth it. I explain in detail my experience and the public transport we used to get to the Guacamayo eco lodge. The daily adventures that we got up to and how much it all cost.
I hope that you find this helpful, if you do, please leave us a glowing review and of course *****

***CONTENT WARNING***
This episode contains content about violence towards women and may be triggering for survivors of abuse.
The safety of female travellers has been at the top of all discussions this week. I have briefly spoken about the scariest incident that I have had while travelling alone in previous episodes. I was woken by a threatening phone call to my room, I later learnt it was a staff member from the resort I was staying at. The resort was the Majestic Elegance Resort in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. When I started this podcast my aim was to be honest and open and not shy away from serious topics. Last week a woman released her horrific story of being brutally attacked at this same resort. 
I have chosen to share more details about my experience at this resort in support of Tammy Lawrence-Daley. I do not believe the world is a scary place. I do believe that this resort is not safe for women.

047 - Things are not always how they seem

Troy Larkin returns to chat about Customs or traditions around the world. 
Not customs at the airports, even though we do touch on that a little. It's more about the customs a Country may have, like food etiquette, pointing or blowing ones nose in public may not be acceptable. We also talk about the tipping culture in certain Countries and how in Australia we do not tip, so there is no need to tip when visiting AUS. 
Thanks for listening and happy travels.

046 - Customs | Troy Larkin

This week we talk about missing flights and how one can handle the situation. I have asked one of my tribe, Mark Stewart to join me to talk about his experiences with missing flights.
I personally have only ever missed one flight, so I thought I would ask someone who has missed a few, to chat about how he handled the situation and give tips on what someone can do if they miss a flight. I know it's a fear for many. Mark's stories are not only about being late for a flight that you may miss, but a flight being delayed, which in turn makes connections an issue. He tells his stories in detail and the best way to continue on to have an awesome holiday. Crying in a ball at the airport is not the solution.
