Phuket
Picture Mauritius. We’re going to be a tad presumptuous and say you saw long, sandy beaches, a palm-dense shoreline and waters some would describe as azure. And for the most part, that’s not a bad shout. The Mauritius PR engine has done a grand job. But we’ve got great news. They missed out the mountains, forests, tea plantations, national parks, waterfalls and some intriguing endemic wildlife. We could go on – but there’s no fun to be had in finding out everything before you land. We’ve saved some surprises for you.

The best temples in Phuket
The sheer number of Phuket temples and shrines can be a bit daunting if you’re an amateur anthropologist keen on learning about the religious and spiritual history of the island. But let’s face it, the simple fact is that unless your holiday is based only around seeing all Phuket temples, you won’t be able to. With that being said, you can definitely see a wide range of designs and motifs that show off the sheer breadth of amazing places of worship without having to scour the entire island.

A Guide to Phuket’s Ethical Animal Sanctuaries
Part of what makes Thailand, and Phuket, such an incredible place to visit is the abundance and variety of wildlife that calls the region home. Of course, the best way to see any animal is in the wild or on a proper reserve, but that isn’t always possible or safe. Moreover, many animals have been horribly exploited for both labour and tourism, so can no longer survive without human help either: that’s where sanctuaries come in. However, when you are choosing which sanctuary to visit you have to be careful, as there are a number of unscrupulous and even downright abusive businesspeople masquerading as sanctuaries.
A guide to Muay Thai in Phuket
If you’re keen on attaining the eye of the tiger and getting more involved in the sport of Muay Thai during your Phuket break there are ample opportunities to do so. From singular sessions at Muay Thai gyms to full on, monthlong camps, there’s plenty of chances to see why so many people love it.
Lisbon
Despite being a capital city,and a very beautiful one at that, Lisbon has somehow managed to avoid the crushing numbers of tourists that flock to other major European cities. Don’t let that fool you, though; there’s plenty on offer for the savvy travellers that do visit. It’s budget-friendly, has a mild climate, and provides Insta-worthy views at almost every turn; even a ride on the city’s iconic trams is an amazing sightseeing experience.
