Folks last year I went through three countries in Central Asia, all with the pluses and minuses, but ultimately three countries I enjoyed travelling. Tajikistan was the first country I stepped into to explore, and as with all over Central Asia I really enjoyed it as a destination. It is mountainous, varied, has some amazing …
Hi all. 'Mr Bald' has had a lot of adventures on YouTube, but perhaps the most heartwarming story he's shared is his relationship with Kolya, a man who is living by himself in a village in southern Belarus which is in the 'radiation zone'. And when I say alone, Kolya (who is 73) is the …

Howdy all, today I want to write about what I consider my personal ‘Ultimate’ Itinerary, a trip which I undertook over sixteen years ago now through countless countries and destinations, an overland route which saw me travel to three continents – Asia, Europe and Africa. And that was my journey from Dhaka in Bangladesh, to …
Howdy all and welcome to Sunday’s thoughtful post on travel and why we should look to travel again. I’m feeling somewhat jealous seeing that in some parts of the world people are off travelling here and there. For here in Australia – to be more exact Victoria – to be even more precise, Melbourne, can’t …
Howdy all! Yes, the final vlog has dropped, called 'The Flight Path Home', so join me as I make my way from Porto to Melbourne on Emirates and Qantas, and then let me present a few 'best ofs' from the trip. What was my favourite city? What was the weirdest city? The Most Amazing Natural …

For example last year I struggled hiking in Tajikistan at the Seven Lakes. It was a great hike – and it will feature …
Hi all! Well, I may not have got to go to the Philippines as planned this year, but it doesn’t mean I didn’t get to enjoy a marvellous holiday at an undisclosed location, but let’s just say that with some time off work in the last week I have managed to have some ‘time away …
Yes, I said I would take a bit of a look through my photos of my first proper overseas trip (that I could remember at least) and present some to you, and the time has come! 1986 saw my brother and I's parents take their sons on a trip through Hong Kong, Europe and Beijing …
Howdy all. I have no idea why I start so many posts with that, it just seems to, well, happen. Anyhoo, today I thought it was probably about time I re-evaluated my travel bucket list. Here we are in the midst of lockdown, plans for the Philippines gone down the plug hole, and many of …
Howdy all. So here’s the idea right. It’s self-isolation time for many of us. It’s minimising social interactions and going out. With Covid-19 or the Coronavirus if you prefer, staying home is a big thing right now. And one thing that it’s virtually impossible or at least highly advised against doing is travelling, particularly internationally. …
