Just Cruising Along: Top Spots in the Med
Basking in a deck chair, watching the sun shimmer off the water before going ashore to explore yet another of the world’s great cities – yes, it’s a hard life going on luxury cruises in the Mediterranean. But if your idea of the perfect holiday involves having all the stress taken out of moving from A to B, then it could be the one for you. Certainly there is no other way to take in such a variety of cultural destinations in a short time. Here’s my top four best of the Med to help you plan one.
Ephesus, near Izmir, Turkey
Starting at the easternmost end of the sea, many cruises will go a long way to take in a visit to the ruins of the fabled temple of Artemis. This monument to the Goddess of Love is the highlight of a network of ruins which also includes the Temple of Celsius, built around 500 BC. Take in a visit to the bazaars and souks of nearby Selcuk at the same time.
Santorini
One of the Greek Cyclades Islands, Santorini, with its white-walled towns climbing up rocky hillsides out of the sparkling blue Med, is an unforgettable sight. The perfect shore trip could be a stroll through the main settlement, Ola, including a visit to one of the canteens producing the Santorini red wine made from indigenous grapes.
Venice
For the gong of most unique destination, Venice remains unbeatable. Even as it sinks into the lagoon, the city grows in fascination and mystique. St Mark’s Basilica, a gondola ride, the Bridge of Sighs, the glass blowers workshops at Murano: all of these are sights and experiences you could only enjoy in Venice.
Tunis
Many forget that a Mediterranean cruise can be a superb chance to experience North Africa as well as Europe and Asia. A close call with Alexandria in Egypt, Tunis just shades it for the proximity of the nearby ruins of Carthage. Home to Hannibal, who marched on Rome with an army of elephants, there is no more fitting place to appreciate the historic interaction between Europe and the Arab world.

Three Childhood Memories that Inspired me to Travel
Growing up in New Zealand was great; it’s a country known for its natural beauty and there are a lot of beautiful places to explore. Unfortunately for me, my family never had the spare cash to go overseas, so instead I spent my childhood dreaming of Paris and escaping to somewhere that didn’t have English as the main language. I think part of my deep desire to visit all the places stems from the fact that I knew it simply wasn’t an option when I was younger.
One of my favourite childhood travel memories was the trip my dad and I would take up to Takaka to visit family who owned a dairy farm. We’d make some time every summer school holidays to head away. Even though it wasn’t an exotic holiday destination, it was so nice being so far away from home and the chaos of a city. I was allowed to run free around the large, green paddocks and we abandoned all schedules. Traveling by campervan is definitely something I want to explore more now that I’m a bit older; whether it’s a road trip across America in a campervan or a few weeks enjoying my own country. If any of my UK readers want to look into caravanning, The Caravan Club does a good insurance package, and the company also has a huge community of enthusiasts who love chatting about caravanning
Another childhood memory that sparked the flame to travel was the numerous days spent at the beach across the country. We have so many great beaches in New Zealand; we’re literally spoiled for choice. I remember when I was seven or eight, standing on Sumner beach, my local beach growing up, looking out to the ocean and wondering what was on the other side. What the people were like, what the food was like, what it smelled like and what it would feel like to be there. Even though I’m older and I’ve traveled to numerous countries now, I still stand on the beach and look out to the ocean wondering what’s on the other side, or missing places I’ve visited elsewhere.
The third childhood memory that inspired my desire to travel is a little unusual; I grew up in a small school that was relatively mixed. There were children from Afghanistan, some from China, others from Japan and a couple from America and England. When you’re a child it’s easy to think that the universe is simply your small box of people you know, but having such a multicultural class made me realize the world was big and mixed with a lot of different people. I found myself feeling jealous of these foreigners, wishing to go somewhere where I would be the exotic or novel person.
I’ve always thought about travel; since I was as young as I can remember. I’m just grateful that I’m getting to live my dream and to explore the world, finally.
Do you have any childhood memories that you think inspired you to travel? Have you always been an explorer or is it a recent development?

I didn’t love Paris
I’m just going to come right out and say it: I didn’t love Paris; maybe I’m not a real girl.
It took me by surprise, too. I always thought I’d love Paris – the incredible food, beautiful buildings… as a small child I had dreamed of being proposed to under the Eiffel tower (I was very original). But the reality of the Paris I’d dreamed of and the Paris I found was very different. While there’s no doubt that the buildings are extremely romantic and Parisians dress like no one else, there was no escaping the fact that everything smelled like pee.
And the trains were on strike.
And it was awfully expensive.
But I’ll return to Paris someday. It’s really high on my to visit again list, so that I can do it a good justice. I made the mistake of going to Paris with two guys who had already been before; they were quite happy sitting in cafes drinking beer, rather than exploring the Louvre or one of the many beautiful jardins.
Here are some things I wish I’d done in Paris to enjoy my time more.
Stopped penny pinching. I remember sitting in a café browsing the menu and converting the price of an espresso to that of two and a half coffees back home in New Zealand, so I decided not to buy the coffee. But that became my motto for all of my purchases in Paris, if it was more expensive than in New Zealand I was simply not interested. After a few years of travel I’ve learned that this is a silly mentality – now I like to think about how much it will cost me to get back to Paris to enjoy that coffee, and it’s certainly much more than the outright price. When I return to Paris I’ll come with a big, generous budget and an open mind.
Stayed in a nice hotel. While staying at hotels in Paris can be expensive, although you can find some great deals online. Last time I was there I stayed in an apartment, which was a cool experience but it didn’t feel that special. Although Parisian hotels are expensive, from what I’ve seen they are extremely luxurious and beautifully adorned, so it’d be nice to go home after a long day of enjoying museums and galleries to draw a bath in an elegant room only to later munch on some macarons in a robe. Most of the time when I travel I stay in cheap hostels, so it’d be nice to allow myself this special treat.
Visited the museums. My trip was badly planned; we were in Paris on a Tuesday which is when the majority of the museums and galleries are closed. We didn’t realize that, until we were there. It was very disappointing. I also remember a few galleries were open but their entry fees were expensive and I was too cheap… ah now look at how much it’s going to cost me to get back there to see them – lesson learned.
Learned some French. My boyfriend at the time and I decided to do a cheap dinner at home. We bought some bread, some cheese and then we walked into a deli to order some meat. We spoke basically no French, although we tried to explain that we spoke no French in French as a sign of respect. We pointed to the meat we wanted and tried to signal 200g on our phones. The attendant was frustrated we didn’t speak French and instead of trying to come to a solution, promptly ushered us out of his store. He’d rather have no sale, than try to deal with people who do not speak his language. This is the only place in the entire world where I’ve experienced this problem. In many Asian countries the locals will apologise for their lack of English. I think if I had learned a little more French, perhaps numbers and how to order things, my stay would have been a little more comfortable. Failing that, I could always meet up with some Couchsurfers to help show me around and act as translators.

My Travel Wardrobe
I’d love to say that I have special travel clothes that are extremely practical with fifteen pockets each side and anti-theft safety measures, but the truth is I tend to wear what I’d normally wear at home overseas. My focus is on comfortable and stylish daywear, so that I can still look good without worrying about my clothes. Overall I probably dress a little more casually than I would at home, but I still like to look presentable. Traveling out of a backpack means that your travel wardrobe is fairly limited so you have to pack smart. My travel wardrobe is extremely practical while still being cute and feminine.
What to Wear Traveling Long Term?
Clothes in New Zealand are really expensive compared to other countries. I was shocked to see how cheap things were in California, let alone the prices in Asia. I tend to shop a lot online, looking for clothing that is easy to fold up into my backpack. When traveling in hotter climates I tend towards cotton because it’s easy to wash and stays comfortable throughout the day. I wear a lot of dresses because they’re an outfit all in one and take up very little space. Simply add leggings and you’ve got something more suited to colder climates.
On each trip I go on, I make sure that my travel wardrobe contains at least one really nice outfit that I can wear out to special dinners or for a night out drinking. I only travel with three pairs of shoes when I’m in Asia: a pair of flipflops (jandals), a pair of sneakers and a pair of heels. I rarely use the heels, but I love having them just-in-case something special crops up. Guys could easily get buy with just flipflops, and maybe a nicer pair of dress shoes if you want the option to go out.
Dressing to the Country
When I was in Morocco, I noticed there were numerous tourists who were wearing shortshorts and had bra straps poking out of the side of their thin, singlets. Morocco is a Muslim country and the locals dressed very modestly, with some women completely covered up so only their eyes were visible. It made me uncomfortable seeing other tourists with such a strong disregard for the local standards. I tried to cover from neck to toe, which was pretty challenging in the heat that often climbed past 40 degrees, but it was worth it so that I didn’t stand out.
My travel wardrobe always takes into consideration the local customs and what is appropriate where I am visiting; not just what I feel comfortable wearing.
Men are lucky; most places in the world that encourage modest dressing for women will be happy to see men donning shorts and a tshirt. It’s frustrating and can be quite weird when you are originally from a liberal country, but I always feel so much more comfortable dressing appropriately. I always carry with me a pashmina or other scarf so that I can wrap it around myself to cover up a little more when needed.
What do you wear when you’re traveling long term? Are there any clothing pieces you need to be a part of your travel wardrobe?

Keep Your Electronics Safe
Recently, I’ve had two friends who are traveling crop up on Facebook saying their iPhones have been stolen – one in Beijing and the other in Hanoi. Aside from losing the phone, it can be extremely frustrating even when you have travel insurance because you lose a number of things that might have not been backed up – such as photos and contacts. Keeping your electronics safe on the road is more than just preventing them being stolen and here are a few tips I’ve learned along the way.
Get Travel Insurance
While in the Czech Republic, I opened my Toshiba laptop to see that the entire screen was shattered. What had it been doing? It was sitting on my desk, exactly where I’d closed it the night prior. I’m guessing a little stone or bead was stuck under the lid and caused the entire screen to shatter. My camera was stolen by valet parking in Los Angeles and again travel insurance allowed me to get most of my gear replaced without financially crippling me – do not go traveling without it.
Don’t get Blind Drunk
Sorry to say, but a big bunch of my friends who have lost items on the road, particularly cellphones and wallets, have been blind drunk. I’m pretty sure a few girls I know who have had their “phones stolen” were actually busy grinding on the dance floor, drunk and oblivious to the fact their phones fell out of their purse or pockets… If you’re stumbling around somewhere that is very foreign to you and a local person spots you, you will become an easy target. If you are having a big night out, why not lock your valuables in your locker or hotel room? Take an appropriate amount of cash for the evening, and leave anything that you don’t want stolen or lost behind.
Invest in Waterproof Cases
When I was in Spain, I looked in my bag to see that my laptop was in its case in my bag…. Which seemed fairly standard, except it was surrounded by a little moat of water. My drink bottle had leaked, but thankfully I had a waterproof case. I took my laptop out immediately and it was bone dry on the inside. If you’re traveling on boats you can easily put electronics (cords, phones, cameras) inside zip lock bags to give them a little bit of extra protection.
Sleep With Your Valuables
This might seem stupid, but I’ve stayed in a few dorms in dodgy places that haven’t had lockers. Often you can ask if you can leave valuables with the front desk, but when that’s not a possibility I simply sleep with my laptop, phone and wallet under my pillow. If someone wants to try their luck at prying my sleeping, snoring self off my valuables in the middle of the night in the dark, then maybe they deserve them!
Carry Small Locks
I love to lock things! When I’m on night trains I’ll lock my bags, either together, or to a pole or the railing. There’s nothing worse than having a terrible sleep tossing and turning being concerned about the safety of your electronics. Having a few small locks means that you have lots of options to keep your items safe regardless of where you are.
Do you have any tips for keeping your electronics safe? Have you had any crazy electronic disasters on the road?

How to Start Funding Your Travels
You’ve got your ideal destinations all mapped out, and now all you need is the ticket to get there. Often, finding a way to pay for travelling is a lot harder than planning your trip. It doesn’t have to be impossible, however, if you consider unique ways to save up for it. Here are five methods for funding your travels.
Have a boot sale. There’s no better way to prepare for extensive travels than to lighten your load. You can get rid of belongings you don’t want anymore while raising money for your trip by having a boot sale. First, clear out your wardrobe and other areas of your house or apartment so that you can see what items you have. Then, you can host a boot sale or a garage sale to earn cash.
Sell online. If you’re not keen on boot sales, you could always sell your old belongings on a site like musicMagpie.com or Ebay. musicMagpie even have a free app, so you can get started on selling those old CDs, DVDs and games on the go!
Become an au pair. Never discount the age-old strategy of getting a side job to start funding your travels. Positions like being an au pair or becoming a tutor are a perfect fit for aspiring travellers because they allow you to earn extra money without having to take on the responsibility of getting a second job. Also, being an au pair may just give you a chance to work on your communication skills, which you’ll surely need once you embark on your journey.
Secure a job in a foreign country. Alternatively, you could try to doing a proactive search for work in your destination country. Many people who travel choose a country or a city as their “home base” while they are away, and then search for a job there. You could do bar work, translate or teach English, all while having the freedom and flexibility to travel on the weekends or whenever you have free time.
Turn odd chores into a business. If none of the previous fundraising methods work for you, turn to what you love to make you some extra cash. If you like to wash cars, mow lawns or clean your house, for example, you could market yourself to your family and friends by offering to do these things for them — for a small fee. If you put away all the money you make, it could add up to a large sum sooner than you think, giving you the green light to start your travelling adventures.

Los Gigantes – My Sunshine Escape
When people think of holidays in Tenerife, Los Gigantes isn’t one of the first places that crosses their minds. A world away from the buzzing resorts of Playa de Las Americas and Los Cristianos, Los Gigantes is a place to take it easy and enjoy the sunshine whilst watching the world go by.
The resort is situated on the western coast of the island and has a mixture of Spanish locals, international residents and holidaymakers. Most of the accommodation is staggered on a steep hill and although the apartments at the top must have amazing views, I certainly didn’t fancy the walk up there several times each day.
Luckily the complex I was staying in – El Sombrero – was about half way down the hill, so I wasn’t too out of breath each time I walked up from the centre of the resort. I was fortunate enough to get a one-bedroom apartment with fabulous sea views – on a clear day I could even see over to the neighbouring island of La Gomera. Although there was a small swimming pool with plenty of sun loungers at El Sombrero, I’m more of a beach person and made my way down to the coast on my first day.
Due to the resort being built on a slope, it was quite easy to get lost amidst the hotels and restaurants, but as long as I was heading downwards, I knew I was going in the right direction. After wandering around a few winding streets, I came face to face with the harbour and knew I was on the right track. I walked behind the complex facing the harbour, past a number of souvenir shops, small cafes and ice cream parlours until I came to the black sandy bay that I was looking for.
Because of its small size, there were no real facilities but that didn’t matter. I lay my towel down on the soft sand and breathed in the sea air as the warm sunshine slowly tanned my skin. As well as being able to do a spot of people watching, I also had a chance to take a look at all the different boats that sailed by as they left the harbour – everything from tiny wooden fishing boats to grand luxury yachts. It was then that I got the idea for the second day of my holiday – a boat trip.
After enjoying breakfast on my balcony the next morning, I retraced my steps and headed down to the port again. In between the cafes, bars and restaurants there was an excursions kiosk which listed all the boat trips and water sports on offer from Los Gigantes. After a quick chat with the person running the kiosk, I opted for a whales and dolphins trip. The boat didn’t leave for another 30 minutes, so I took a leisurely stroll around the harbour.
As well as loads of fancy speedboats and yachts, the harbour was also full of huge fish! There was a young boy throwing his crisps into the water to feed them and I peaked over the edge expecting to see tiny guppy-like things, but these fish were at least 30cm long and were gobbling the crisps up. I checked my watch and noticed it was time for my excursion where I would have the opportunity to see even bigger creatures.
I’d never been on a whales and dolphins trip before and was surprised by how great it was. The price of the ticket included unlimited drinks and a buffet lunch, which everyone on board thoroughly enjoyed. The man at the kiosk had warned me that sightings weren’t guaranteed, which is why I was pleasantly surprised by the number of marine mammals we saw. There were pilot whales swimming alongside our boat and we even saw the odd flying fish. The boat’s captain took us to the nearby fish farms, explaining that’s where the bottle-nosed dolphins usually collected and he was right. We saw a huge pod of dolphins catching fish and jumping out of the water – it was such an emotional experience that I’ll never forget.
Although I really enjoyed spending time at the beach in Los Gigantes, I’d heard good things about the resort’s lido and decided to visit one afternoon. Located next to the harbour, it was easy to find and only cost a few Euros to get in. There was one main pool which curved around in a lagoon-style and loads of sun beds surrounding it. The lido was fairly quiet when I visited, so I managed to get a prime location, grabbing a sun lounger on the little island in the centre of the pool. After I’d had enough of sunbathing, I took a walk to the other end of the lido to see how big it was and discovered there was a whole separate area I didn’t even know about. There were two staircases leading down to two more sun terraces facing the sea. Underneath the terraces was a beautiful natural rock pool which looked incredibly inviting. I grabbed my bag and towel and spent the rest of the afternoon soaking up the sun in this section of the lido, listening to the waves lap against the rocks.
What struck me most about my time in Los Gigantes was the beauty of the area. In English, the resort’s name means ‘The Giants’, which is what the surrounding cliffs are called. There are three viewpoints throughout the resort, which provide amazing views of the cliffs, so on my way out of Los Gigantes on my last day, I made sure to stop off at the highest point to snap a few photos.
I thought the views of the cliffs from the bottom of the resort were amazing, but they were nothing compared to what I saw from the top. Huge, intimidating rock faces plunged dramatically into the sea before me in what is one of the most beautiful landscapes I’ve ever seen and made for a great final memory of my time in Los Gigantes.

Taking a late break
This is a guest post by Lee Tillyer
The thought of a fantastic holiday in the sun is always an exciting one. But the effort of visiting a travel agent, or sitting down for an evening’s worth of trawling the internet for a great deal is not everyone’s idea of fun. I find that when I’m looking for a holiday I find it’s really hard to know whether I’ve found the best price, and more importantly whether that ‘deal’ will land me and my wife in a pokey one star apartment in the back of beyond (yes – this has happened to us more than once!). Recently I discovered a way to get a late holiday that combined both luxury and a fantastic price by buying a Getaway Fare on a P&O Cruises holiday.
I had previously signed up for P&O Cruises Cruise Offers e-bulletin, so when the email dropped into my inbox it came at just the right time for me – I’d worked up the will to go away and now I had the deal to make the temptation irresistible. There were a number of amazing deals on offer but a clear winner for me was sailing to the Iberian Peninsula with Oriana.
After a quick phone call to my wife (she didn’t take much convincing at all!) I was soon speaking to one of cruise experts of P&O Cruises who talked me through the booking process and made sure I had all the information I needed about my holiday. I was soon able to use my Cruise Personaliser online to arrange all of the extras to make our holiday just perfect, including booking shore excursions and requesting our on board dining preferences from the comfort of my sofa.
Departure day came around before we knew it! Our springtime cruise whisked us from the dreary and wintry weather of the UK to the warmer waters off the coasts of Spain and Portugal. Oriana took us as far south as the coast of North Africa, stopping in at Casablanca in Morocco. We explored the age old souks in search of some souvenirs to remind us of our adventure (and to make my friends back home jealous, I have to admit!). All in all it was just what we needed after a busy Christmas and New Year. Our holiday came just at the right time for us both and helped us recharge and face the rest of the year with renewed vigour.
The best part for me was that the Getaway Fare I paid was not only great value for money but with the late deal I was able to secure a holiday leaving in just four weeks. This was the perfect timescale for me – it gave me a chance to plan out my workload with my team but it also gave us plenty of time to get together all of the bits we would need for our holiday. Most importantly, we didn’t have to wait months between deciding to go away and being on board ship – a massive plus for an impatient soul like me!
Now I call it ‘tactical holidaying’ as with P&O Cruises late deals we can book our breaks around our busy workloads and family commitments without causing too much disruption – exactly how a holiday should be!

My Favourite Travel Quotes
I still remember that feeling that overwhelmed me as I boarded my flight to Thailand in November of 2010, after only impulsively booking the flight a week earlier. There was a knot in my stomach: a mixture of excitement, nerves and fear. I was afraid – I was stepping into territory I’d never been before and I was taking a leap of faith.
I was diving into the world, open arms and seeing where it would take me.
That was one of the best decisions I have ever made and when someone asks me about my travel regrets I tell them to only real regret I have is that I didn’t do it sooner.
There are things I learned about the world that I couldn’t have otherwise learned from the comfort of my own home; how stunning the Alhambra is, what it feels like to wake up in Ha Long Bay and all the weird things the Spanish do. But above all of that, I learned so much about myself – what I can cope with, what I can’t, what I will always miss about home and a clearer idea of what I want from my life.
My friend has a tattoo that says “ancora imparo” which is Italian for “I am still learning”. When I first read it I thought it was great – I love to learn, I love to learn facts about the world and fascinating things. But only now do I understand the depth of those words. I am still learning about myself, daily, but nothing makes you learn more about yourself than an adventure.
I love reading travel quotes. Some of them resonate within me, some of them inspire new adventures and others make me long for adventures long gone. Here are a few of my favourite travel quotes:
“Travel like Ghandi, with simple clothes, open eyes and an uncluttered mind.” – Rick Steves
“When you travel, remember that a foreign country is not designed to make you comfortable. It is designed to make its own people comfortable.” – Clifton Fadiman
“I have found out that there ain’t no surer way to find out whether you like people or hate them than to travel with them.” –Mark Twain
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain
“A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for” – John A. Shedd
“You lose sight of things… and when you travel, everything balances out.” – Daranna Gidel
“Life is a daring adventure, or nothing.” – Helen Keller
“A journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it.” – John Steinbeck
“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.” – Mark Twain
“People travel to faraway places to watch, in fascination, the kind of people they ignore at home.” – Dagobert D. Runes
“Once you have traveled, the voyage never ends… The mind can never break off from the journey.” – Pat Conroy
“Travel is glamorous only in retrospect.” – Paul Theroux
“Tourists don’t know where they’ve been, travelers don’t know where they’re going.” – Theroux
“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”
-Robert Frost
