The Big Post-Travel Come-Down
Things are starting to return to normal in the life of Royce & Amber. Yip. The elation and relief of finding full-time paid employment in meaningful, career-progressing positions of fulltime employment is slowly giving way to the blunt reality of … Continue reading
Amsterdam. We came, we saw, we concurred!

A Musical Journey From the Start
I’ve had a pretty strong relationship with music for as long as I remember and, as much as my memory may not serve me as well as it probably should nowadays, this is quite a long time. Don’t get me … Continue reading
European Escapade Update
Thursday 21st July – 24 days, 7 1/2 countries (we only stopped in Innsbruck, Austria for half an hour so I have decided it doesn’t warrant an Austrian flag sticker in my travel diary), countless Busabout bus rides and approximately … Continue reading
