I check back on that blog quite regularly and today I noticed that there was a little link at the top saying ‘Next blog’.  Unable to refrain from pressing it, I ended up on The Backside of Water blog and was pleasantly surprised at what I found.

Reading the blog title, what would you expect it was about?  Water?  Aquatic animals?  I guess it could even be a bit poetic and feature the works of an up-and-coming writer.

Nope – Disney theme parks.

The Backside of Water blog was set up in 2008 and provides information on a vast array of different topics to do with all aspects of Disney’s theme parks.

For instance, recent posts have covered the new bins that are apparent in the park (which include separate recycling sections, showing a greener side to Disney),  whilst older posts have covered everything from the entrance sign for Splash Mountain to the benches that are near to the Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse.

The Backside of Water blog might not seem particularly interesting, featuring just tidbits of information about Disney theme parks – but it’s tidbits of information that I like.

And plus, it’s Disney – who doesn’t like Disney?

If you fall into the latter category and think that moving abroad can be a particularly daunting experience, what can help is knowing people who come from a similar background to you reporting and providing information on the considerable task that you are about to carry out.

Clogs and Tulips is the blog of Tiffany Jansen, an American, originally from Maryland, USA.  In short, Tiffany met a Dutchman in 2007, fell in love, got married and moved back to his homeland where they have lived happily ever since.

Understanding the importance of helping fellow expats (or wannabe’ expats), Tiffany set up Clogs and Tulips to not only provide information on various aspects of Dutch life, but also to act as a gathering place for those who have moved, or want to move, to Holland (or the Netherlands in general).

As someone who has no immediate plans to move away from the UK, you might think that this blog would be of no relevance to me.  However, it is a particularly interesting blog to read through for anyone, as Tiffany details a range of different points on her new wedded life with a Dutchman.

Don’t get me wrong, I love my house, but there’s something fantastic about seeing different archicterure, tasting different foods and experiencing different cultures.

Unfortunately, a little thing called work gets in the way of my desire to travel frequently and so I generally head over to a selection of blogs on a regular basis to get my travelling kick, with Travel Writer being one of them.

The owner of the blog, Connie Motz, was a Certified Travel Agent and Accredited Cruise Counsellor for nearly a decade and a half and so is more than suitably experienced to provide fantastic, in-depth content on a range of different locations around the world – something she does extremely well.

Whilst it may seem that Travel Writer is based largely around cruises of all different types or destinations where cruise ships regularly dock, there is a substantial amount of information on destinations from across the globe, some of which are massively popular and others that are hidden gems.

There’s also a great aspect of the blog which is worth a visit alone – the ability to mark each post with whether you have been to that destination or not.

There’s nothing like a little personal bragging to boost your mood.

I have to be honest and if someone asked me to take a look at a blog on Indian news, it would enter my To Do list at the top and slowly work its way down.  With never being to India, aside from any headlines in the news, the only information I ever hear about India is when i’m finding out about the cricket.

However, the name really did suck me in – it was imaginative, a play on words and I liked it.

The theme of Ind Trends isn’t particulary outstanding and isn’t breaking any barriers in regards to design, but the content is so vast and varied, whilst all relating to India, that the few areas of the design that need tweaking are easily overlooked.

For instance, when I first took a look at Ind Trends, there were articles on the main page about diploma resulsts and the Republic Day in India.  Interesting in their own right, it was an article just above those two that caught my eye and I would never have guessed that within 30 seconds of visiting the site I would be singing along to the Indian national anthem.

It’s actually a pretty good national anthem, as far as national anthems go and it even has a short version if you’re new to the language.

Or are a footballer.
