Utah’s National Parks | Arches & Bryce Canyon
So, if you haven’t read Part 1 of my ‘Utah’s National Parks’ posts yet, featuring Zion and Monument Valley, I recommend doing so for the context of the small group tour I was on. It was a crazy week, though,…
Utah’s National Parks | Zion & Monument Valley
After a couple of months of solo travel, the next phase of my cross-country USA trip was actually group travel. I’d signed up to join a small group camping trip with Intrepid, covering Utah and Yosemite mainly. We started from…
3 Days at the Grand Canyon | USA

Day Trips on Vancouver Island | Canada
After several weeks exploring California and a brief stop back in Vancouver, I decided to spend the month of May on Vancouver Island. I’d spent a weekend in Victoria back in November and had realised I definitely wanted to come…
A Week in San Francisco | California
