Apparently people are bored of Instagram perfection and all the instahotties are losing followers so here’s a picture of us UNFILTERED at a bus stop. Funny story, I decided to dye my hair myself and went in a chemically pool and now my tips are green! Paging @blueberrybangs to help me with this terrible situation... . . . . #travelinbetween #traveldames #damestravel #sheexplores #travelpreneur #femmetravel #digitalnomads #exploretocreate #traveldeeper #girlvsglobe #backpackerconfessions #femaletravelbloggers #iammissadventure #girlslovetravel #travelgirlsgo #tblogger #bloggerslife #budgettravel #tbloggers #travelblogger #travelcouple #hairdilemma This is why we need to care about the planet. I’ve seen so much environmental devastation on this trip that’s it’s overwhelming to think about. Let’s stop burning the forest so the air is so thick with smoke that we can’t breathe. So much smog that it changes the colour of the moon. Let’s be better. Let’s save ourselves from a life of dirty air and no trees. . . . . #earthday #roamtheplanet #travelinbetween #traveldames #damestravel #sheexplores #travelpreneur #femmetravel #digitalnomads #exploretocreate #traveldeeper #girlvsglobe #backpackerconfessions #femaletravelbloggers #iammissadventure #girlslovetravel #travelgirlsgo #tblogger #bloggerslife #budgettravel #tbloggers #travelblogger #traveldeeper We’ve been on the road for seven months now so it’s time for me to get stuck into Girl vs South Asia, it was 5 months and a heck of a lot happened so I’m enjoying writing it and reflecting on the highs, lows and everything in between. It’s a nice way to heal from the bad and celebrate the good as writing is the ultimate therapy. . . . . #travelblogger #travelpreneur #locationindependent #exploretocreate #thattravelblog #backpackerconfessions #budgettravel #tbloggers #iamtb #digitalnomads #bloggersofinstagram #tblogger #thattravelblog #bloggerlife #bloggerslife #bloglife #travellifestyle #wanderlust #femalewriters #travelwriter #comingsoon #typingasfastasican Sri Lanka I’m sorry. A beautiful country whose scars have ripped open once again by this attack. Thinking of all the families and hoping we can support Sri Lanka to unite against these threats. We love you Sri Lanka. . . . . #srilanka #colombo #srilankabombattacks #welovesrilanka #unitedwestand #lovenothate #asia #southasia #worldnews #journalism #beabettertraveler #lovetheworld #hopenothate We get bored in hotel rooms sometimes and @caddyisplank used one of these many opportunities to dress up as a never nude. He’s wearing my shorts and bamboo eco-friendly period pants. David Cross himself actually liked it. Travel really is a state of arrested development... . . .

How a country can stay so beautiful despite being on fire I don’t know. The roads are also incredibly windy but so worth it to be able to stay in out of season resorts that we wouldn’t be able to afford otherwise. It also keeps peoples businesses ticking over. . . . . #travelinbetween #traveldames #damestravel #sheexplores #travelpreneur #femmetravel #digitalnomads #exploretocreate #traveldeeper #girlvsglobe #backpackerconfessions #femaletravelbloggers #iammissadventure #girlslovetravel #travelgirlsgo #tblogger #bloggerslife #budgettravel #tbloggers #travelblogger #pai #thailand #visitthailand #thailandtourism @caddyisplank and I got separated in a Mandalay monastery and I found him getting his palm read by a monk. He wouldn’t tell me what the monk said but it made me think about the first time I ever saw a monk in Thailand and I was amazed because I was only 18. It’s funny because actually monks are just like vicars are in the UK but nobody tells you that when you’re from a small village and you’ve got no idea about the big wide world out there. . . . #travelblogger #travelpreneur #locationindependent #exploretocreate #thattravelblog #backpackerconfessions #budgettravel #tbloggers #iamtb #digitalnomads #bloggersofinstagram #tblogger #thattravelblog #bloggerlife #bloggerslife #bloglife #travellifestyle #wanderlust #travelcouple #mandalay #shwenandawmonastery

The ancient ruins of Sukhothai in Thailand, so I’ve been to Ayutthaya before, but I liked the countryside setting of Sukhothai but man, it was hot! . . . . #travelblogger #travelpreneur #locationindependent #exploretocreate #thattravelblog #backpackerconfessions #budgettravel #tbloggers #iamtb #digitalnomads #bloggersofinstagram #tblogger #thattravelblog #bloggerlife #bloggerslife #bloglife #travellifestyle #wanderlust #sukhothaihistoricalpark #thailand #southeastasia Adorned walls in Sarah Cave in Hpa-an in Myanmar. . . . . . #travelblogger #travelpreneur #locationindependent #exploretocreate #thattravelblog #backpackerconfessions #budgettravel #tbloggers #iamtb #digitalnomads #bloggersofinstagram #tblogger #thattravelblog #bloggerlife #bloggerslife #bloglife #travellifestyle #wanderlust #femaletravelbloggers #hpaan #visitmyanmar #myanmartourism #mytinyatlas Colourful Buddhas carved into the walls at Kawgun Cave in Hpa-an, Myanmar. . .

We decided to speak to the international press at the time which was anxiety-inducing to say the least...it received a lot of attention from Rakhine citizens as it doesn’t get talked about much in the press at all...We did our due diligence before we went to make sure it was safe and one British guy trolled us asking why we put ourselves in the middle of the Rohingya conflict that is making headlines around the world. The point is that we didn’t, this was another ethnic conflict in Rakhine State between the Arakan Army and the Burmese Army. We had no idea of these tensions and the threat of hidden conflicts around the world...we have less international news bureaus than ever and it’s dangerous. It’s dangerous because of fake news as well as world travel. You can’t know about something that isn’t talked about - so we had to run away from gunfire and shelling in a tourist town full of the temples. The day we left, there was firing in the streets and at least six people were injured. There was an attack on a police post a few days ago with more casualties. This is a country that is supposed to now be a democracy. We need to fund news organisations that can keep us updated with the complex and harrowing conflicts around the world, as well as the ecological atrocities that we’ve created. . . . . . #travelblogger #travelphotography #travelphotographer #traveldeeper #worldnews #travelblogger #journalist #mrauku #myanmar #burma #rakhinestate #traveldeeper #worldtraveler #travelersnotebook #travelwriter #femalewriters Tourists at the beautiful Kawgun cave temple in Hpa-an in Myanmar. . . . . #travelblogger #travelpreneur #locationindependent #exploretocreate #thattravelblog #backpackerconfessions #budgettravel #tbloggers #iamtb #digitalnomads #bloggersofinstagram #tblogger #thattravelblog #bloggerlife #bloggerslife #bloglife #travellifestyle #wanderlust #travelphotography #visitmyanmar #myanmartourism Ngapali Beach really is one of the gems of Southeast Asia.
