About me …

My name is Sarah and I’m a travel journalist writing features and news for a swag of Australian newspapers, magazines and websites.

This is my website, the place I post words and pictures gathered as I galavant around the globe.

So enjoy the news, reviews, updates, random thinking and regular snapping – photos, that is – gathered here.

And you might just find inspiration for your next trip far, near or here.

... the corridors of gates at Kyoto’s Fushimi Imari Taisha. The Shinto shrine is famous for thousands of vermilion torii gates, which straddle a network of trails winding along the side of a mountain to the south of Kyoto. Fushimi Inari is the most important of shrines dedicated to Inari, the Shinto god of rice, and because foxes are thought to be Inari's messengers there are many statues across the grounds. . . . #kyoto #kyotojapan #kyototravel #kyototrip #kyotogram #visitjapan #japan #japan_photo #japan_focus #japantrip #japantravel #fushimiinari #fushimiinarishrine #shrine #toriigate #gates #landscape #morningwalk #travelphotography #travel #travelling #traveller #traveldeeper #travelgram #travellover #slowtravel #seetheworld #traveltheworld #gosomewhere #escapesnaps @escapesnaps

... a quiet corner of Tokyo Shangri-La. The hotel is famous for its floral arrangements and I love this one in the lobby celebrating autumn. TRAVEL TIP 🌏 Even if you’re not staying at the Shangri-La during a Tokyo visit plan to stop by in the late afternoon to watch the sunset with a glass of something lovely from the very scenic bar up on the 24th floor. Or, even better, reserve a window seat to enjoy an elegant afternoon tea accompanied by a view across the Tokyo skyline. . . . #tokyo #tokyolife #tokyotravel #japan #visitjapan #japantrip #japantravel #shangrilahotel #shangrilatokyo #hotel #hotellife #hotellovers #hotelstyle #lobby #inside #interiordesign #interiordesign #travel #travelling #traveller #travellife #travellover #traveldeeper #slowtravel #travelphotography #traveltheworld #seetheworld #gosomewhere #escapesnaps @escapesnaps @shangrilahotels @shangrila_tokyo
