​There is something intriguing about these winged beauties - their iridescent colours and the metamorphic way in which they enter this world. 

These days, butterfly watching tours are conducted almost everywhere where these striking creatures are to be found, both to prevent their fast declining numbers, and to contribute to conservation of these fascinating species. 

Butterfly holidays encourage interest in these colourfully patterned elegant creatures, which are regarded as the true ambassadors of a healthy environment. In addition to butterflies, trips organised by companies such as Naturetrek can uncover several different types of birds, plants and mammals. 

With about 20,000 different species butterfly to be found all over the globe, we have narrowed the search down to some of the best hotspots where you can see some of the rarest and diverse fluttering wonders at their elegant best.

Backpacking holidays always seem like they should be about saving money. Travelling cheaply, living in hostels, and buying food from street markets where you can. Nevertheless, you can definitely inject a little luxury into your travels if you need it. Feet Do Travel share some of the reasons why you should treat yourself to luxury when backpacking.

India is a Country of contrasts. From Temples to Tigers, colourful paint throwing festivals to white sand beaches, India has something to tease every type of emotion.

Our visit to India changed our view of travelling. It opened our eyes to a different culture, opened our hearts to locals who waved enthusiastically, and welcomed us with big smiles. The sights, sounds and smells of India awaken your senses, and a ride in a tuk-tuk will definitely make you feel alive!

Extreme weather conditions can happen anywhere in the world at any time, but would you know how to survive a natural disaster?

It’s devastating for residents living within a country, but as travellers, any one of us could be visiting somewhere when a natural disaster occurs. 

When we were in the Lombok earthquake on 5 August, we had no idea what to do, we just tried to think rationally and survival mode kicked in. When a tsunami warning was in place, for this we knew what to do – get to high ground. 

This post isn’t intended to scare, but to educate us all on what to do when faced with circumstances we are unfamiliar with. I haven’t endured all the situations within this post, if I had, I’m unsure if I would be the luckiest person still alive, or the unluckiest to have been in these disasters in the first place! So I spoke with my travel blogger friends to create this post. 
​
I hope we are all able to learn how to survive a natural disaster.

India. A country on my bucket list, but Sy wasn’t initially keen. He was unsure whether the culture shock would take away the pleasure of the experience. Little did he realise that it was because of the difference in culture he would love it so much!

There are many places to visit in India, however there were two specific reasons why North India and the Golden Triangle were high on my list; the Taj Mahal Agra, and to see tigers in the wild. When we found a tour company incorporating both, it was a no brainer!  

What an absolutely amazing time we had!

The Taj Mahal in Agra, India is one of the new seven wonders of the world. One of the world’s most iconic buildings, it’s on most people’s bucket list.

It was at the top of ours!

I have known about the Taj Mahal my entire life, in fact, I cannot remember a time when I wasn’t aware of it. Back in 1992, Princess Diana had her iconic photograph taken on a bench in front of the stunning white marble building, this helped catapult the world’s most famous mausoleum into modern fame. Who wouldn’t want to replicate such a beautiful photo? 

That bench is still there affectionately known as Lady Di’s Chair’.
​
But would I be disappointed when I visited, especially as we were going for sunrise. Is the Taj Mahal just another building? Or is it the greatest monument of love ever built?

Very few wildlife encounters can beat a safari. I have been lucky enough to participate in around 26 game drives in my life and out of all of them, the best was searching for wild tigers in Ranthambore National Park, India.

If you are planning to visit the “Golden Triangle” (Delhi, Agra & Jaipur) it is definitely worth incorporating a trip to Ranthambore, considered to be the real life jungle book. A tiger safari to see one of the world’s most endangered species in their natural habitat, should be on every animal lovers bucket list.

But why was this safari so special in comparison to others?  Let me share with you our story and you can judge for yourself.
