Well yes. I am home, safely in Melbourne now after a somewhat long journey from Lisbon which involved three flights with Emirates and Qantas. I am still in very much a daze here and don't feel particularly functional, despite having a long night's sleep last night. It's kinda like being in the twilight zone, and …
Hey, this is pretty cool y’all. Sorry, I will never use that expression again, I feel bad now… So anyways! What the heck am I talking about? Okay, so ages ago now my good friend, compatriot and fellow travel blogger Tim Blight (of urbanduniya.com) asked me if I’d like to contribute to the magazine of …
Howdy all. So I'm sitting back really tired here but forcing myself to write a blog post before getting some sleep. I will hit Central Asia tomorrow with a morning flight to Almaty, but right now I'm in the amazing Sama Sama International at KLIA. Possibly my favourite hotel ever! Singapore was quick as expected, …

Hi all, well I have just booked the last flight for my trip this week. Not the one that takes me home, but one from Seville to Lisbon. I’m taking Ryan Air. I’ve taken their most expensive fare which starts at 78 Euro but keeps going up and up as you book. I also learnt …

Amazingly, ‘travel agent’ is still a thing, when you consider that it is perfectly possible to completely book your flights, accommodation, ground transport and travel insurance, and indeed tours from the comfort of your computer, tablet or phone in 2019. …
Flying can be pretty awesome, can’t it? I never cease to be amazed by the fact that such a ridiculously heavy thing such as an aeroplane can get off the ground. My most recent little getaway, last month to the Gold Coast, saw me take budget airline Tiger Airways. From Singapore they are basically known …
Hi all. Continuing on delivering an Australia-based post a week, today I wanted to talk a bit about getting around Australia by air. For the visitor to Australia, especially one with limited time on their hands, air travel is probably the most logical way to get around, simply because the distances are so great. A …
So the time has come to reveal all about the plans for the year. Sometimes I am able to contain myself and keep the plans limited, like last year to India and Sri Lanka. This year… less so! This year I have sort of thrown off the shackles and decided to get as much in …
Last year I took Virgin Australia for the first time. A flight from Sydney back to Melbourne, then flying from Melbourne to the Sunshine Coast (Maroochydore) and then back from Brisbane. Three flights in one year, all domestic, how did I find them? Virgin (worldwide and in Australia) is of course the airline of billionaire …

Hey all. Well it’s official, I think. I think I hate my home airport, Melbourne’s Tullamarine. There are plenty of reasons not to like it, but after my last trip there, I’m pretty much fed up. There are two pressing issues with Melbourne’s main international airport. The first is the distance. Having to get there …
