Darren and Beth the Brits now living in NZ before the crowd got out of control

Yes that’s my big news, and I have absolutely no doubt that this is hands down the best decision I have ever made. Despite only arriving home this Saturday afternoon from my trip to Europe,  I have wanted to live and work in BA, Argentina since my visit there in 2003 when I realised the [...]

I really can’t believe that my travels are almost an end. I’m writing from a German Wings flight from Split to Cologne, where I’ll board a train to Frankfurt for my departure back to Vancouver tomorrow. This has been one helluva of a trip. 6 weeks of travelling to Prague, Budapest, Graz, Maribor Lake Balaton, [...]

How To Spot a Kiwi in Slovakia

What I came on – well similar

She will be the one who doesn’t understand a word of Slovakian. She will take close to 3 days to remember how to say thank you, by rhyming it with `requiem’ which is what it sounds like and replacing the R with a D. My friend, the lovely Kristina (fondly known as Kika) knows it’s [...]

Despite what many of my Uggle friends think Ultimate is a dangerous sport. And before you ask Uggles is a non Ultimate player, think Harry Potter and it will all make sense. Before I left to play at World Club Ultimate Champs in Prague from 3-10 July I had to sign a participation form stating [...]

Reflections on Vancouver From A Restless Traveller

16 June 2010 by Natalie Sisson, 7 Comments

I’m getting itchy feet. Any time I have a trip planned it seems to bring out this wanderlust in me that makes me rethink where I want to be living. In less than two weeks I’ll be heading to Prague where I’ll be playing with team Zephyr at the World Club Championships. I can’t wait. [...]

I’m not entirely sure why I’m so excited about 2010. But I am. It seems I’m not alone. From the people I’ve talked to and the articles, blogs, emails and tweets I’ve read recently, it’s fairly evident that people are very optimistic about this year. I know that a tough 2009 has made everyone want [...]

Oh how the months have flown by with September and October being two of the busiest in my life. They’ve brought with them some key learnings, interesting challenges, a launch of one great Closed Beta product FundRazr and a launch of an online resource WomanzWorld. Some people might think it silly to attempt such a [...]

How to start a business whilst trapped in Canada

Team Zephyr

It’s ironic that my personal blog for friends and family is called Global Adventures, particularly as right now I’m confined to National travel only. Yep I’m treading a fine immigration line. It dawned on me 2 weeks ago when I was going to book my flights to NYC to hang with great friends and capitalize [...]
