Travel

by The Empty W Chronicles

Travelling has been part of who I am since I can remember. However, Triston only started to travel overseas because of me. We have so many stories to tell. That is to say with over 10 years of travel stories to catch up on it might take some time. Firstly I have to remember them and then I need to chronicle them all. You...

Hotels

by The Empty W Chronicles

Over the years our travels have changed from $20 a night rooms (though they were still hotels, thanks Vegas for the great value, and not backpackers) to luxury hotels. We do still stay at cheap and cheerful disastrous hotels every now and then. It just so happens we have found value in loyalty programs.

Lola is cute

by The Empty W Chronicles

She was sitting super cute making sure to touch the foot rest. So… I took a photo. Lola was not a huge fan and decided to hold my hand. That is her way of telling me to stop with the photos. It was about 10 minutes before she went back to her cute pose.
