Overview

Hi I'm Katie from sunny LA. I'm about to take off for a 6 month tour of the world. I've left work and taking the ultimate vacation! This one is going to be different though, I'm going to focus my trip on the islands of the world! Not just any islands but some of the most special. First up is Easter Island in the South Pacific and the last will be the UK! I'm not sure of the complete route. I will just see where the mood takes me but I do know I will going to the Cook Islands, Tahiti, NZ, Fiji, Australia, Zanzibar, Seychelles, Ambergris in Belize and the US Virgin Islands. Paradise!

Follow me round!

Wow Tahiti is expensive!

I'm currently in Moorea trying to recover after 4 nights in Tahiti that nearly broke me financially . It is so expensive there. I know everyone told me it would be but you don't really believe it until yuo see if for yourself. Thanks for letting me share your hotel for a couple of nights Mandy and Jenny, you were life savers!

I didn't really think it was that great there really. There is a main highway around the island and although the sea is a stunning color and there are palm trees coming down onto white sand you don't feel like you are on a beautiful tropical paradise that much. Soory for moaning it just that I have spent soooo much money here

Moorea has much cheaper accommodation which is good but it is still not backpacker prices. I've just spent $150 a night in Tahiti and here its $70, ouch. Can't wait to go to the Cook Islands where hopefully it's cheaper.
