As another year comes to a close, it’s time to look back on the last 12 months and reflect on 2018. The year has been a whirlwind of adventure. I settled down in Barcelona then six months later decided to leave. As 2018 ends, I’m back in England getting ready for my next trip (keep… Continue Reading…

Things To Do in Tbilisi

This entry was posted in Georgia and tagged City & Sightseeing on November 28, 2018 by Girl about the Globe.

Stunning mountains, ancient architecture and some of the best wine in the world – who can possibly resist a trip to Georgia. This European country was once part of the Soviet Union and is known for its culture, and snowy Caucasus Mountains.  Tbilisi is the capital and you could easily spend a week here, dining at… Continue Reading…

Challenging Yourself

This entry was posted in Personal and tagged Personal on October 30, 2018 by Girl about the Globe.
Leave a reply

There’s a saying that “If it doesn’t challenge you, it doesn’t change you…” Sometimes we become complacent in life. Whenever I am too much in my comfort zone I know it’s time for a change. What better way to change things than to challenge myself and raise money at the same time. So, in January… Continue Reading…

Georgia to Azerbaijan

“If you want tea and coffee, just ask.” If you use the toilet keep it clean and no smoking on the train.” I thanked the Georgian guy who was sharing my carriage for the night as he kindly translated what the lady steward had said. I looked out of the train window and watched as… Continue Reading…

Day Tours in Sydney

Sydney is one of my most favourite cities. I loved it so much that I once spent 9 months living and working in this Australian city. The people are friendly, the city is walkable and Sydney is always bursting with things to do. Whether you’re a cultural Girl about the Globe (GatG) or an active… Continue Reading…

My New Trips!

After being tied to Barcelona for the whole summer, I have finally been let loose and am heading back on the road! As much as Barcelona is the best place to be during the summer months, I am ready to explore some different culture. In September I visited Tunisia (which completely blew my expectations). In October… Continue Reading…

San Marino is a tiny Republic State in Europe. Situated near Rimini in Italy, this fortified city is UNESCO listed due to its intangible heritage and culture. This Republic is steeped in heritage and the only way to see this tiny country is to take a San Marino tour, whether self-guided or with a personal… Continue Reading…

Belfast political tours

Experiencing a Mural Tour Belfast

This entry was posted in Northern Ireland and tagged History on August 25, 2018 by Girl about the Globe.
Leave a reply

Taking a mural tour Belfast was one of the most eye-opening tours I have been on. My Belfast political tour was from the account of a former Republican political prisoner. The conflict in Belfast is sensitive and complex and I have included research from news reports but this account may still be biased. I am not… Continue Reading…

Not Giving Up

It’s amazing what a difference a year makes. As we reach the end of July I’m reminded of what my life was like a year ago; the anxiety that I was going through to try to make things work. Following your dreams isn’t a straight line with one step after the next. It’s two steps… Continue Reading…

The Titanic Museum Belfast is one of Northern Ireland’s best attractions. If you are planning a trip to Northern Ireland then you definitely need to go here. Everyone has heard of the Titanic but if you are like me, you may not have realised that the Titanic was actually built in Belfast. You may not… Continue Reading…
