How I’ve learned to (almost) stop being a judgmental fuckwit
I'm pretty quick to judge. It's just my nature and it's something I have had to learn to control while travelling. This is a quick one about exactly what I've learnt.
Toast, noodles, rice: eating in Malaysia
I've looked forward to Asia because I love all Asian cuisines, but when it came to Malaysia I was a little disappointed. This is just a short rant about the lack of fruit and veg available. Not that interesting.

This just hits home that the stigma around mental illness still remains, if this campsite had once been a hospital that treated people with broken legs, would people be leaving the same reviews?
Sin Sabor: the land of limited flavour
General musings on the limited flavour of savoury snacks in Argentina. Nothing particularly interesting but an observation non-the-less.
