What a lovely 5 days we had in Berlin!
Did some sightseeing, a free walking tour, stayed in a very grim but cute hostel with disgusting bathrooms and bed bugs potentially. We be friended a few Australian chicks and an Aussie couple from melbs! Met up with the kiwis from sail in an Irish pub and went to the night club tressor with them, had ferg sleep in our room and willow cooked up some unreal breakfasts. We successfully got let into KitKat which was something else, saw some things we will never forget but woweee it was an amazing experience.

We will definitely be back, but first let’s go restore some brain cells and get some r&r in Poland 🇵🇱Read more

Found the best most wholesome hostel in Gdańsk , loved it so much we extended another night. Met the most beautiful people and vibed really well with everyone. Explored a castle, a beach and the old town, got tattoos from one of the hostel volunteers and tried polish dumplings for the first time. This place will forever hold a special place in my heart. Not to mention it’s the cheapest place we have travelled too yet! I also fell inlove with the hostel cat named James! He was so cute and cuddly. NEXT STOP: Warsaw 🇵🇱📍Read more

Warsaw, a nice place. Not a whole lot going on but the old town was beautiful! Will and I have developed an addiction to polish dumplings names peroogi! We ate them every night rip lol

We stayed at this cute little apartment which was so lux and we had free reign to a washing machine so you best bed we absolutely rinsed it for all it’s worth!

Did a walking tour that sucked so we ditched an hour and a half in and spent some lovely time bonding and watching movies. Wholesome ever all but wouldn’t race to come back!

Another unreal old town!

Stayed at Greg and toms beer hostel, this place did the MOST!!

Free breaky
Free buffet dinner
Free hour of beer every day
Free lollies and Biscuits
Free tea and coffee and milk etc
Free hour is bottomless spirits at the pub crawl pres

Went on the pub crawl the first night we got there! Got so so fucked up that I spent the whole next day 14hrs in bed with a hangover 😅🥲

Went to auschwitz and Auschwitz-Birkenau, so so sad seeing and learning about everything but makes me very grateful for the world we live in now. very eye opening, I’d recommend anyone to go.

All in all great place! Unreal night life, cheap beers.Read more

Prague slayed! The town is beautiful! The hostel was so fun, felt like we were living in a palace for the whole time we were there!

Will and I were on a diet of oats, salad sandwhiches and lentils and that did heaps for the gut! Enjoyed a walking tour with a up and coming comedian, had a chimney donut that absolutely slapped and learnt what river rats are. Went to an Irish pub that did karaoke and got super stoned on the walk back to the hostel with the random joint we have been lugging around since Berlin. Went to a gay club on the last night and pulled up super dusty for our 5 hour trip to Slovakia.

Thanks Prague xRead more

The start of our 20+ day Turkey trip!! Stoked to be here 🫶🏼❤️ 🇹🇷

After a very long and gruelling travel day from Budapest we arrived in Istanbul! Half asleep we wondered around the city, got money out and had our first taste of that Turkish kebab goodness. The needy day we visited the blue mosque, Hagia sophia, the grand bazar and the spice bazar. We enjoyed yet another beautiful kebab enjoyed every part of the hustle and bustle this city has to offer.

We extended our stay here for 3 more days and look forward to what we will discover next.Read more
