[Accommodation Review] Sometimes things look a lot better online. You turn up and it just doesn’t match the photo. Other times you’re told you’re getting an amazing deal but you’re not really. I ummmed and ahhhed about where I would stay in Jaipur. I was almost booked into a couple of places before, at the …
‘Oh no…. it’s another post where Andrew bags out the Indian capital!’ – I know that’s what you’re thinking. And… you’re absolutely right! Sorry, I wasn’t going to go against every opinion about the place I’ve ever expressed and surprise you with an ironic post about how much I secretly love Delhi. That would be, …
From the town in the desert to Rajasthan’s Blue City, this trip on Indian Railways was perhaps not as memorable as others I’ve taken. Why? Well, I was asleep about five minutes after we left, the scenery was mostly arid, and I’d already done this 301km segment of rail before. Mind you – I hadn’t …
Hi all. Time for another (sigh) review. Air Asia would be the carrier to get me from South East Asia to India, after my SCOOT flight was cancelled when they decided to stop flying the route. I needed quickly to find another option, and so it was I rerouted to Kuala Lumpur and then took …

Hi folks! Anzac Day was yesterday. I didn't have time with work to set out a post with loads of photos, but I have this morning. So here are most of the photos I took back in 2004 when I visited the Gallipoli Peninsula and Anzac Cove in Turkey. Lest We Forget.
Hi All. A quick addition to yesterday's post with a couple more pics - mostly of my autographed photos - from Supanova! Thought you'd all like the chance to see me with Pearl Mackie and try to decode what Peter Capaldi wrote! Thanks! May the Journey Never End!
Howdy all. A post from home, about home. Well, something that happened in my home town. An event I attended. I mean, I was trying to think of the word that describes something like ‘Supanova’. It’s a sort of Comic-Con with a different name I guess. I also guess fans of Comic-Cons possibly would violently …

My first stop of my latest journey was an overnight one in Kuala Lumpur. Not really enough time to get into the city, I decided I’d stay at a hotel at or near the airport. Usually, a hotel like Sama-Sama would not be on my radar. I just went to Agoda which was offering 38% …

Ahhh the Indian Train Journey! I am genuinely excited that I can properly recount a few journeys in India now. I took a number, all in relative comfort I should say, in my twelve days in India. This was the first major journey, nearly twelve hours across Rajasthan from the main Rajasthani city in Jaipur …
One of the towns famous in Rajasthan, and let’s face it, there are many, is Pushkar. It’s a curious place, I visited it back in 1999 and again last month when I was back in India for the first time in fourteen years. And I’m not going to a whole article on the pros and …
