We’d been looking at The Canoe Man for canoe/kayak hire, so decided to spontaneously turn up in Wroxham to see if they had any free. All their canoes were booked out, but we managed to … More Krazy Kayaking
Sydney is an awesome city! I love it, and could totally see myself living there. It’s small enough to be able to walk around and not feel overwhelmed, and has a really nice open feel to it because of the amazing harbour location. There’s so much to see in Sydney, the same as any other major city … More Australia Eleven – Sydney Sights
