As soon as I stepped foot in Tokyo in 2008, I knew I had caught the travelling bug. I decided I didn't just want to travel I wanted to experience the world! The different cultures, the people, the sites and most importantly (to me) the food!

Recently I have started to develop an interest in photography and hope to improve my skills while doing what I love most.

Welcome to my journey........

Scary taxi ride

Me and Melissa had the creepiest cab driver ever. We got in the taxi and turned around and asked if we were 'Russian'. Now I read a story online about cab drivers asking girls if they are Russian and offering a free cab ride for sex (why would anyone accept this?!). My friend didn't understand him but I knew what he was asking so I made sure he knew he knew were were English and Canadian. He repeated the question so I told we were teachers.

The cab ride was awakard at this point (If I was alone I would of got out). He kept making noises to bring attention to himself and looking back at us. Now I was dressed like no hooker!!! My dress was to my feet!!!! So I don't know why this is the 3rd time I have been asked if I'm Russian! (the other times I was wearing trousers and a top to my neck).  I'm not saying all Russians in Korea are hookers but there are quite a few sex Russian clubs/bars. He also kept turning the air con up so it was freezing!!

I think if either me or Melissa were in the cab alone then you might of not seen us again (except on the news). I don't think I'm getting a cab by myself here again for a long time!
