  • We’ve been living out of backpacks on the road for the last ten years, so it’s easy to keep track of your stuff… Only item in our bags that hasn’t changed is a zip-up flannel towel. It’s perfect for keeping your toiletries in order, light-weight and washable, doubles as a flannel on the rare occasions you need such a thing, and has Hello Kitty on it.

    Since the bags themselves have been replaced, it’s the clear winner. 2nd place is a Tony the Tiger colour-changing spoon from a bag of Frosties in 2016.



  • Toasted ham and cheese with quality ingredients. It’s a tasty marriage of sweet sugar and salty ham, crisp toast and melty cheese.

    Best one I made was when staying in Antwerp. I got the cheese in Amersdam - a truffle gouda. Butter was also dutch, from memory, but I can’t recall exactly. Nice and salty. Bread was local - Suikerbrood. Sweet bread that browns easily. Ham was prosciutto from France somewhere.

    Have to put the butter on the outside and pan-fry slowly to ensure the cheese melts. The If you don’t have a sweet brioche bread, sprinkle sugar on the butter to get that crisp, sweet exterior.
