For the second time on DanVenture Travels, I have a guest writer. This time in the form of my beautiful sister, Bethany. "Disclaimer: Please note friends, my husband tells me everyday that I'm dramatic, but I prefer the term 'expressive' or 'cautious'. My husband & I decided we'd love to visit Thailand & decided to...

About a month ago, I found myself in Sofia. I was over the moon about this because the Bulgarian capital had been a place I'd wanted to visit for about 3 years. The more of Europe I see, the more I realize how much more I enjoy being in Eastern Europe as opposed to Western... Continue Reading →
I really wanted to write a post that had no mention of the current situation we are facing, but unfortunately travel is one of the hardest hit industries & there is just no way of ignoring it. While I know how frustrating it is to have a trip postponed or cancelled, spare a thought for... Continue Reading →

Some people will count physically being in a country as having visited... Continue Reading →
I know I haven't shared anything in a while, but I did pass a travel milestone today, so I thought I would share. I have just passed my 1 millionth kilometer traveled by air. That distance is just over 25 times around the globe & is equivalent roughly 60 full days of flying. A pretty... Continue Reading →
Exactly a year ago, I arrived in Doha. I was excited & nervous which I think is pretty normal for someone who has just moved to a new city or country. The last year has had its fair share of ups & downs, but overall it has been the best year of my life. I... Continue Reading →
Unfortunately, life has kept me extremely busy & I haven't been able to write updates for my blog in a while. I do hope I will be able to start writing again soon. In the meantime, I would like to share a blog. My brother & sister-in-law have recently immigrated to New Zealand & are... Continue Reading →
I planned on writing this post yesterday while I waited to collect my new passport at the Department of Home Affairs, but much to my surprise (and any South African who has been to Home Affairs would not believe me) I was in & out within 13 minutes. So I didn't have time. I flew... Continue Reading →
