Welcome to Moaning Manc Traveller

Hi, it’s Ryan here, back with another travel tale. This time, I’m taking you to Las Americas in Tenerife, a place that reminded me of Benidorm with its lively atmosphere, cheap drinks, and non-stop nightlife. It’s a destination where the fun doesn’t stop, but it’s not without its pitfalls. Here’s my take on Las Americas, from the highlights to the places you might want to avoid.

Hi, it’s Ryan again, here to share my experiences in the sunny town of Corralejo, a gem on the northern tip of Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands. If you’re looking for a laid-back vibe, incredible food, and a relaxed nightlife, Corralejo should be on your travel list. Here’s what makes this place special.

Hi, it’s Ryan again, sharing the details of a quick but lovely trip to York with my missus. Despite feeling under the weather, I couldn’t help but enjoy the charm of this historic city. With its compact, walkable city centre, incredible architecture, and cosy atmosphere, York is the perfect destination for a night or two. Here’s a look at what we got up to and some of the things we’re planning for our next visit.

Alright, it’s Ryan back again, and this time I’m diving into the infamous Benidorm. If you’ve heard the stories, you’ve probably got an idea of what this place is about. But is it any good? Well, yeah, it’s everything you’ve heard…and more.

Alright, it’s Ryan back again, this time reporting from Perth, Australia. Now, I’ll be honest with you—Perth doesn’t exactly have the best rep for nightlife, and it’s often labeled as one of the most expensive cities to visit. But as a Moaning Manc who loves a bit of exploring, I can’t deny that I actually enjoyed my time there. Sure, my brother’s antics meant we didn’t make it late into the night (he had one too many, as per), but the day and evening we had were still class.

Alright, it’s Ryan here, your resident Moaning Manc Traveller, reporting from one of the most unexpectedly stunning places I’ve ever visited: Koh Phangan. Now, I know what you’re thinking. Koh Phangan? Isn’t that the Full Moon Party island where everyone paints themselves neon and dances till sunrise? Aye, it is…but it’s so much more than that.

Hi, it’s Ryan here, back with a blog that’s close to my heart. Manchester is my city, and while I might be a little biased, it truly has something for everyone. From world-class food and drink to football and music culture that’s second to none, Manchester is a city you can explore endlessly and still find something new. Let me take you on a tour of my favourite spots in this vibrant, ever-changing city.

Hi, it’s Ryan here, back with another unforgettable travel tale. What started as a trip to San Sebastian to watch Manchester United play in the Europa League turned into an incredible five-day culinary and cultural adventure. The football became a sideline event as the food, drink, and charm of this beautiful Basque city took centre stage. Here’s why San Sebastian is a destination I’d recommend to anyone, football fan or not.

Hi, it’s Ryan here, back with another travel tale. This time, I’m taking you to Faro, a small but stunning city in Portugal that I discovered while attending a wedding. While Faro might not have the size or reputation of Lisbon or Porto, it’s a gem worth visiting for a weekend—if only for the incredible food and vibrant atmosphere. Here’s my experience in this charming city.

Hi, it’s Ryan here, your resident Mancunian adventurer.

Here’s my personal take on Bangkok, focusing on the food, drink, and experiences that made it unforgettable.

Hi, it’s Ryan again, your travel-loving Mancunian. This time, I’m taking you on a journey to the vibrant, bustling city of Marrakech, Morocco. Known as the Red City, Marrakech is a sensory overload in the best possible way – the colours, sounds, and, most importantly, the flavours of this city are unforgettable. If you’re a foodie or just looking for a cultural escape, here’s what you need to know about Marrakech, with a focus on its incredible food, drink, and unique cultural quirks.

Hanoi holds a special place in my heart, not just because of its vibrant streets or incredible food but because it’s a city where I experienced some of the most genuine acts of hospitality and community. Let me take you on a personal journey through Hanoi’s food, drink, and culture, with stories that capture the city’s essence.
