Here's why I'll never be a content creator - two days into Cambodia, I forgot to continue the videos for the trend, until I was at the airport 👀

Cambodia was beautiful. Read my first blog on the country (link in bio), but you're going to want to stick around for the post on Siem Reap!

Go, like all my posts until then 💋

From Buda and Pest to Balaton, this little nation

From Buda and Pest to Balaton, this little nation once stood strong and mighty. It endured a lot, being battered and bruised through the years. So its history is vast and its cuisine is a fusion of its neighbours 🇭🇺

Hungary is now blue skies, good wines, and green landscapes with a murky lake that locals love to swim in - although I had my reservations cause it wasn't the Sri Lankan blue, but i guess brownish-green water is cool too.

A fish out of water and into wine from Piedmont 🌊🍷

Barolo is a prestigious Italian wine, hailed as the "King of Wines." Crafted from Nebbiolo grapes, it takes its name from the charming village of Barolo in Piedmont. This enchanting region, renowned for its winemaking heritage, has been bestowed with UNESCO World Heritage status.

Have you had Barolo wines?

Over half of the world's coral reefs are suffering

Over half of the world's coral reefs are suffering from bleaching due to rising sea temperatures. If these temperatures don't go down, we face the very real possibility of losing these vibrant ecosystems entirely.

Having witnessed their beauty firsthand, it's heartbreaking to see the stark contrast. The once dazzling colours and teeming life have been replaced by a desolate expanse of bleached white.

As @davidattenborough said, we must rewild the world. Our natural world has to come first, before anything else, we must protect it.

Location: Trincomalee, Sri Lanka

In the historic city of Ayutthaya, Thailand, lies

In the historic city of Ayutthaya, Thailand, lies Wat Mahathat. Once a royal temple complex, but now a collection of ruins left behind after the Siam-Burmese war.

There are two known theories of how the tree embraced the head of the statue.
1. Post war, a local thief attempted to run away with the statue, but couldn't jump over the temple walls with its weight. So he hid it in the tree but he never retrieved it.
2. During the war, the Burmese army, in attempting to break the Thai spirit, decapitated the heads of all statues in Ayutthaya. This is just one example. Nature however reclaimed it as her own masterpiece.
3. The official sign near the tree states the head of the statue simply rolled off.

Oh how incredibly lucky I am to be a part of this world, to admire life as usual 30m below sea level, to constantly be in awe of it's vibrancy and sheet beauty, to be grateful that less than 30 mins from my home, there are over 20 similar shipwrecks calling to me.

SS British Sergeant was bombed by the Japanese during WW2 on 9 April 1942 ⚓

She fought until the last minute, bringing down 2 of the 6 Japanese planes along with her to the sea bed. This armed merchant vessel, part of the British Fleet, now rests 24m deep - providing a haven for shoals of brightly coloured fish and eager divers.

This dive would not have been possible without @olivenzo_arnolda and @slsubaqua 🙏

Jetwing Lighthouse will always be one of my favourite hotels in Galle. The food, the hospitality, the quiet matched with the roaring waves, the design and architecture of Geoffrey Bawa and the feeling of contentment that nothing could go wrong while you're here, is one reason I keep going back.

10 points if you spot the rainbow 🌈

Manta madness in the Maldives 🧜‍♀️ Manta

Manta madness in the Maldives 🧜‍♀️

Mantas are one of the only animals with insane feeding techniques.
They put on quite the performance for us and showed us 3 main ones:

✨Barrel feeding - this is when they somersault over each other
✨Cyclone feeding - yep, it's a cyclone of mantas
✨Line feeding - exactly as it is, they swim in a line.

And yes, this is my new personality. I'm obsessed. 😻
