    Travelling To The New 7 Wonders Of The World

    14 November 2018 / No Comments

    The new 7 Wonders of the World was announced in July 2007 after over 100 million people voted for them from a selection of 200 existing monuments. Scattered across four continents, I sought out to visit the Great Wall of China, the Colosseum in Italy, Petra the city of Jordan, the Incan citadel of Machu Picchu in Peru, Christ the Redeemer in Brazil, the Mayan ruins of Chichén Itzá in Mexico, and the Taj Mahal in India. As I dug a little deeper, I found that five of the seven locations are disabled-friendly (these being the Great Wall of China, the Colosseum, Christ the Redeemer, Chichén Itzá, and the Taj…

That little statement earned me a smack, a side eye, and an order to have that changed within the year. So when I finally set out on my Thai adventure, I was told that island hopping is a must. With over a thousand islands scattered across Thailand, and its reputation for having many beautiful tropical beaches, it’s not hard to see why. However, as someone who nearly drowned once as a child, being out at sea for…
