I'm Andy - I started travelling back in 1999 and fell in love with it straight away! Since then I have been to 103 different countries all over the world and visited every continent except for Antarctica. I love to visit places that are a bit off the beaten track - some of my favourite places include Central Asia, West Africa, India and Iran.

What are Hotel Stays like in Turkmenistan?
Howdy all. I thought I would roll the two hotels I stayed at whilst in Turkmenistan into one post today. Because I thought it would make a more interesting post and give a small insight into travel in Turkmenistan, where you have little choice but to go on a tour where you are transported around …
Top Flight Reviews
Hi all! Following on from last week's 'Top Posts' I thought I'd look at some of my most popular flight reviews this week! SCOOT This one is my single most popular flight review. Well, it has had the most reviews and this was done around 2 years ago now. I'd had a bad booking experience …

Exploring the City of Dushanbe, Tajikistan
The first city on my trip last year I was able to spend any time in was the Tajikistan capital of Dushanbe. It wasn’t a city I had done a lot of research into before getting there, or seen a lot of images of, so it was really a bit if an unknown to me. …

I mean, it’s probably not an airline you’ve considered flying unless you were heading to Central Asia, but actually it could be a useful airline going forward coming from Asia to Europe.

Top Posts of 2019
Hi all again! It’s a bit late, I usually do more ‘end of year’ type posts but didn’t this time around. However, I thought I would do a post on the top posts I had that I posted last year. Frustratingly my top posts of 2019 were not actually written or published in 2019 – …
Victoria’s Twelve Apostles
Howdy all again, it’s time for another Australia-themed post, and today I’m writing about my experience on Victoria’s Great Ocean Road, to visit the ‘Twelve Apostles’. I was lucky enough to be joined by Gino Pop – a guy I met when travelling last year who was suddenly in Melbourne. I asked him if there …
Need to Know – West Africa
Hi all – another ‘Need to know’ this time on a part of the world you may not have considered visiting. Although West Africa lacks the east’s game parks, wildlife etc and received much fewer visitors per year, it is a genuinely vibrant and exciting part of Africa and one that deserves more visitors.
