Thirsty Thursdays: Getting Handcuffed and Spanked in the home of Masochism in Lviv, Ukraine

When you are out travelling the world you never know where you will end up next. Every new city or town I arrive in, I do little research. It’s only when you get to these places that you get extra ideas. A couple of my blog followers, Laura and Kyle alerted me of Cafe Masoch Read more about Thirsty Thursdays: Getting Handcuffed and Spanked in the home of Masochism in Lviv, Ukraine[…]

Thirsty Thursdays: Top 5 Bars in St. Helier, Jersey

Drinking in the Channel Islands is pure bliss. I have fond memories of being the only tourist in the pubs in Sark and Herm back in 2009 and I remember pub-crawling through St. Peter Port in Guernsey one night, including a pub that the Guinness World Records class as “the closest pub to an operational Read more about Thirsty Thursdays: Top 5 Bars in St. Helier, Jersey[…]

Thirsty Thursdays: Drinking Wine in Capital Brewery, Tytannia Province, Adammia

One of my coolest backpacking adventures yet was drinking wine in the main brewery and winery in the Tytannia Province of Adammia.

Thirsty Thursdays: My Top 8 Bars in Gibraltar🇬🇮

Gibraltar drifts into your travel stories as a welcome surprise. My memories of the place will always be good ones.

Thirsty Thursdays: Top 5 Coffee Shops in North Down, Northern Ireland

Thirsty Thursdays comes from North Down in Northern Ireland today, so it does. Northern Ireland punches above its weight time and time again.

A country housing 1.6 million people, boasting some of the Read more about Thirsty Thursdays: Top 5 Coffee Shops in North Down, Northern Ireland[…]

Thirsty Thursdays: Touring Sol de Copan, the German Brewery in Copan Ruinas, Honduras

I spent over two weeks backpacking in Honduras and our time in the country was a pretty eclectic mix. I have to admit I loved the country and was really delighted we took a bit longer there to explore it.

Thirsty Thursdays: 6 Quirky Bars From My Nights Out in Barcelona, Catalonia

“Sometimes I feel like I’m in Barcelona” – D Kay and Epsilon. The Catalonian capital of Barcelona is a city I could actually see myself living in.

I’m a bit of a travel cynic these days Read more about Thirsty Thursdays: 6 Quirky Bars From My Nights Out in Barcelona, Catalonia[…]
