Movie Monday: Lost Roads of Jerusalem

August 14, 2023 By: Themusicalmeanderesscomment

I spent the last week between Jerusalem and Bethlehem. Let’s just say that the movie Monday that typically covers the week will only fit one of them in! Enjoy the first this week, and come back for Bethlehem next week!

Movie Monday: The Last Scottish Pyramid

July 31, 2023 By: Themusicalmeanderesscomment

The pyramids of Giza are widely known, but did you know that there are pyramids in Scotland? Is there more to this last pyramid than one might imagine? Only time can tell!

Movie Monday: Adventures in Azerbaijan

August 15, 2022 By: Themusicalmeanderesscomment

Azerbaijan is the last new country for me this summer. I knew, before coming, that Azerbaijan might be tricky to travel in. I knew the language would be a challenge (hello Russian immersion experience!), I knew that the country hosts very few tourists, and I knew that their unfortunate border troubles with Armenia have discouraged […]

Movie Monday: Monasteries of Armenia

August 9, 2022 By: Themusicalmeanderesscomment

If you follow my pages on social media, you’ll know that every Monday I post a ‘Movie Monday’ (at least when I’m travelling! Not so much when I’m home). Additionally, if you’ve spent any time on social media, you’ll know it’s equal parts frustrating, and doom scrolling, with only a hint of what most of […]

9 Things to do in Peru that aren’t Machu Picchu

February 12, 2020 By: Themusicalmeanderess1 Comment

I recently spent 18 days in Peru. I really fell in love with the friendly people, the incredible landscapes, and the delicious food. I hadn’t originally planned to spend so much time in the country, but because it happened to be one of the ‘unplanned’ portions of my trip, I found myself planning more to […]

Month Six – Recap

January 19, 2020 By: Themusicalmeanderesscomment

December was a month of many, many highlights. From my fifth time seeing Harry Potter and the Cursed Child (yes, I might have a problem; no please don’t send help.), in Melbourne, to seeing many Eastern Australian highlights that I’ve dreamt of seeing for years, and finally stepping foot on my 7th continent and 80th […]

Month Five – Recap

December 16, 2019 By: Themusicalmeanderesscomment

Month five on the road was a month of extreme changes. I started it off in Cambodia, and ended it in Australia. Surprisingly, it wasn’t actually that expensive a month, between visiting the temples of Angkor Wat, and then…Australia…🤷🏻‍♀️. As you will soon see. It also included checking off a whopping THREE bucket list items…how […]

Month Four – recap

November 14, 2019 By: Themusicalmeanderess4 Comments

Month four on the road…wow. The other day, someone asked me if I was getting homesick. I laughed. :p. Are there some things I miss about home? Absolutely! Am I ready to be back? No way. This trip was originally born of the idea to check off several bucket-list items from my (ever-growing) list. I’m […]

Renaissance: Pristina’s Best-Kept Secret

October 29, 2019 By: Themusicalmeanderesscomment

Go ahead and google ‘what to see in Pristina’. Or even better, ‘what to eat in Pristina’. I’ve done it. I’m always on the hunt for interesting food places, local places, and best of all, budget-friendly awesomeness. I’m about to tell you about a place in Pristina that fits all of these, and perhaps best […]
