The Best Netflix TV Shows to Binge-Watch While Travelling

When you’re travelling, you often need to find a way to pass the time. After all, flights can be long-haul, trains can get delayed and road-trips can carry on longer than expected due to circumstantial traffic.

Step forward, Netflix.

If you have a laptop, tablet or even just your phone handy, you can access this online streaming service and have access to hundreds of TV shows at your fingertips. It’s the perfect distraction that can keep you entertained even when a journey feels like it’s never going to end.

(Especially if the TV show is binge-worthy!)

Speaking of, here are 5 of the best Netflix TV shows that will make even the longest trip seem like it passed in no time at all. Trust me.

The Best Netflix TV Shows to Binge-Watch While Travelling

1. Making a Murderer

How could I not start with the original reason why most of us decided to join Netflix in the first place?

If you’ve never heard of Making a Murderer, you must have been living under a rock. It’s a crime documentary based on the story of prison inmate Steven Avery.

In brief, Steven is a Wisconsinite who initially spent nearly two decades in prison for a crime he didn’t commit. Shortly after being released from prison, he was accused of murder and soon found himself behind bars again.

The first series is made up of ten episodes that are incredibly fascinating. And series two is pretty good too!

2. Stranger Things

One of the best Netflix TV shows for travellers who love a bit of sci-fi in their lives is Stranger Things.

Sure, it helps if you have a good viewing platform (such as a Panasonic HD television) so that you can be in awe of the special effects. However, whether you watch it on a plane or in your accommodation, it’s still totally binge-worthy.

Stranger Things stars Winona Ryder as a mother whose son has gone missing in a small Indiana town in 1983 – but all isn’t what it originally seems.

Now in the process of filming a fourth series, this show is captivating, thrilling and I just can’t get enough of it.

3. 13 Reasons Why

Controversial in the TV world yet incredibly powerful, 13 Reasons Why is a Netflix adaptation based on the 2007 book by Jay Asher.

It tells the story of Hannah, a high school student who decides to take her own life, but not before leaving behind a series of tapes to her classmates which denote the 13 reasons why.

Heartbreaking and moving beyond belief, 13 Reasons Why has certainly started a conversation about suicide. And now it’s impossible to disregard.

Full disclosure: series one is great, series two is okay and I’m yet to check out series three.

4. Black Mirror

Previously on Channel 4 before being acquired by Netflix, Black Mirror has one of the most original concepts ever. This undoubtedly makes it one of the best Netflix TV shows.

There have been four seasons thus far, and a fifth unconfirmed. Each episode is a stand-alone drama that examines modern society and the unanticipated consequences of new technologies.

Smart, sharp and full of suspense, I’m currently at the start of the fourth season – and I’m completely gripped!

Don’t believe me when it comes to how good it is? Simply give it a try.

5. The Sinner

Last of the best Netflix TV shows but certainly not least, The Sinner is a 2017 crime drama based on the 1999 novel by Petra Hammesfahr. It tells the story of Cora Tannetti, played by Jessica Biel.

Cora commits a startling and public crime without explanation. As the series unfolds, we learn about her hidden motive as the detective on the case, Harry Ambrose, delves deeper into the investigation.

Intriguing and addictive, I binge-watched all eight episodes of the first series in just a few days. Why? Well, Jessica Biel’s acting is on top form!

Since the original series, there has been two more series, which haven’t been quite as good. Regardless, I’d heartily recommend The Sinner it if you love a good mystery.

Best Netflix TV Shows

Each item on this list of the best Netflix TV shows is special and intriguing in its own way. It will provide you with hours of good entertainment during your travel trips.

Oh, and a little disclaimer: Orange is the New Black very nearly made the list. That would have been #6 for sure. Happy binge-watching!

It’s shacket szn. 🍂 I love a good shacket f It’s shacket szn. 🍂 
I love a good shacket for those transitional autumn days when the temperatures are too chilly to leave the house without a jacket but too mild for your big winter coat. 💁🏼‍♀️ 
This one is from @marksandspencerstyle and I’ve had it years but it was such a great investment; I constantly rewear it during the cold months due to the fact that it’s super snugly and comfy. 🧸
I also recently bought the viral bag from @uniqloeurope - can confirm it’s as roomy, easy to throw on and comfy to wear as they say. 💃🏼
They do it in so many colours and multiple fabrics so I’m tempted to buy more! I’ll leave a link in my Story if you’re interested in having a peek. 👀 
Hope you’re having a great week so far. 🫶🏻

Summer in October 👻 These mild temperatures ar Summer in October 👻
These mild temperatures are taking me back to mine and hubby’s time in Chicago. 🏙️
I love Chicago - it’s got the same cool, exciting vibe as NYC but it’s much less touristy (and crowded)!
Here are some of my fave things to do downtown:
1. Shop along Michigan Ave
2. Willis Tower Observation Deck 👀 
3. The Bean/Millennium Park
4. Navy Pier 🌊 
5. Oak Street Beach
6. Eat deep dish pizza 🍕
…The last one’s the most important. Obv. 😋
Chicago is also magical at Christmastime with plenty of fun decorations, markets and festivities for all ages.
Until next time, Chi-town! 🇺🇸

So thankful for mine and hubby’s time away in Green Bay/Chicago - we had such a wonderful time catching up with family and friends, as well as spending some quality time together. 🥰
Now that we’re home and settled I realise that this trip is just what we both needed to switch off from the mudanities of everyday life and remind us what’s truly important.
There’s nothing like spending time in another country thousands of miles away to give you some perspective!
I’m already looking forward to heading back to the States in December for my mum’s 60th birthday. 🇺🇸 
Until then, it’s been real, ‘Murica! ✌🏻

3 Transitional autumn looks 🍁 It’s that time 3 Transitional autumn looks 🍁
It’s that time of year again. The evenings are getting darker earlier, the mornings are crisper, and the warm sunshine is being replaced by cooler, overcast days as the leaves slowly begin to fall. 🍂
You can no longer leave the house without a jumper or a jacket, and your summer wardrobe is gradually being pushed aside so you can adapt to the change of seasons. 
Hello, autumn. I’ve missed you! 🥰
But, oh how tricky it is trying to dress right now when the temperatures are so up and down. Layering is key, so you can quickly remove or add a layer whenever you need to. 👌🏻
Here are 3 of my fave transitional looks as we head into the autumn season. 🎃
