Weekly Travel News From Around The Web: 7th Feb 2018
Hi! Welcome to Complete City Guides!
My name is Patrick, I'm originally from Sydney (Australia) but grew up in England (my second home) - and I love exploring cities (and writing about it!)
I work online in marketing, which gives me the opportunity to travel around the world full time.
So while I am away, I keep this blog updated with full travel info. I tend to stay in a city for a few months at a time, to really get to know it - then I write guides on it.
This is part of a new series on our blog, so you can find other interesting travel blogs and read about different destinations in the world.
Today we take a look at some of the most interesting and cool stories about travel, from elsewhere on the web.
