Lifelong Wanderlust

I went to Tokyo on 9th March for 2 weeks. After a terrible flight with Aeroflot, I arrived in Tokyo tired, but eager to explore. After over 24 hours of no sleep I went to my hotel to drop my things off before I went exploring. I had an amazing time! I will never fly Aeroflot again though after numerous problems. Bag drop took over 30 minutes, then they couldn't change my seat as they didn't "have the hand" as they put it. They don't speak English other than one or two phrases and were rude a few times. This happened on both legs of the journey. The entertainment system got rebooted over 5 times without and announcement either. I could go on and on, but I won't. Next month, Amsterdam!

I always take my iPhone and my Android Asus Transformer Tablet with me when I go travelling. Here are some of my must have travel apps: Kayak This is my must have. I have tried Tripit, Tripcase and many others, but I like this one the best. Completely free and very easy to use. It also can show you your flight status Yelp This is brilliant for finding out restaurant reviews Tripadvisor This is the most popular way to read reviews on attractions, hotels and restaurants. Brilliant app Opentable Make a restaurant booking with this app Flightaware Very useful for tracking your flight Voxer Great little app that lets you send your friends messages, photos and voice recordings even when they are offline Viber Great for making free calls over wifi, but you can't leave offline messages which is a shame Foursquare Not really a must have, but very useful. I use foursquare to check-in to places let my friends know where I am, unlock badges and sometimes offer...

I am sat here in Frankfurt airport with a long wait for a my flight and I always find myself people watching. I wonder where they are going and where they are from. On another note, I wish the kid sat behind my would shut up crying or moving about. Go buy it some sweets or something. It is making baby noises and it is about 10. Hope they aren't on my flight. The parents should notice that they are annoying everyone around and sort them out. Anyway, where was I?... You see people in airports with 3 or 4 bags for hand luggage when all airlines allow 1, 2 at most. They always have huge bags or cases too and the airlines wonder why the overhead storage doesn't have enough room for everyones bags. That really pisses me off. Seriously, enforce the hand luggage allowance! 4 hours wait for my flight left. Some airports you can pass the time quite well, but not this one. It is quite depressing and I want to strangle the kids behind me. Now they have started singing something over and ov...

Well I did it. I got to my target weight! Lost loads of weight and it took months, but I am glad I did it.

I was lucky enough to attend the EMA's this year. I had to pay for my own flight and hotel though, but I have always wanted to go to an award show. Over 9 hours of standing though! It was a great show and it was good to see so many different live acts.

30 Seconds to Mars were awesome in Lincoln. Got utterly crushed, but had a great time

Since I have lost so much weight, I have bought loads of clothes. So many that they don't all fit in my wardrobe!
