Andy's Journeys to 78 countries & counting!
Let’s head to the Middle East for today’s ‘City Rumble’, I am surprised I haven’t included Cairo in a City Rumble before, and I don’t think I’ve really posted about Amman before at all. So anyways, here we are with the capitals of Egypt and Amman facing off against each other. They are, on the face of it, very different

Egypt. It’s been a heck of a long time since I visited there, but one things for sure, I still have good memories of the places I went. It’s the sort of place that is genuinely unforgettable with incredible history, the Nile River, the desert and the people. Its capital Cairo has seen its share of upheaval in the last

This week’s photographic remembrance is taking me back to Dubai where I was 7 – 8 years ago. There are malls galore, with the most incredible attractions – like Ski Dubai, inside the Mall of the Emirates which is a ski resort with lifts and more and snow of course. Then there was another with an aquarium, one with an

Hi all. Today’s video takes me back to 2009 and the time I visited one of the Middle East’s most accessible and certainly rewarding countries – Jordan. I visited Amman, Aquaba, Petra and Wadi Rum in around two weeks there, and I hope this video whets your appetite for a country that is extremely rewarding and welcoming! If this has

You know I concentrate the bulk of my city rumbles on well-known places, but I thought it was time to write a bit more about Central Asia so I hit upon the plan to pit the capital of Kyrgyzstan against the capital of its neighbour, Uzbekistan. Bishkek is the pleasant, leafy capital of Kyrgyzstan, a country that when you type

Hello! It’s time for another ‘Through My Lens’ where I select some of my photos from a particular place I visited and turn them into a post! Today I am reminiscing about my time in Iran, back in 2004. It’s hard to believe that it’s twelve years ago now! I crossed the border from Pakistan (it was part of my

My trip to Mali and Senegal was a few years back now. I took Royal Air Maroc in and out of West Africa, and I thought I might as well take a couple of nights (basically just one day) in Casablanca as the flights were all routed through there. Yes, Casablanca, which found fame in that film called… called… the

Down the south of Jordan in the Middle East is a very special desert called Wadi Rum. I don’t write much about Jordan, probably because my memories are not so strong from my time there and my diaries are all gone, but it really was a great country to visit for a couple of weeks. Wadi Rum is in the

Hi everyone. I’ve decided to do some reblogging of a Saturday. I’m going back in time and pulling out interesting old posts from my old blog back before I publicised or anything like that (so they haven’t been read by many people!) It’s interesting as an exercise and serves as a bit of a time capsule too. Today I head

Hi folks! Welcome back to Travel Itineraries, a segment I began last year and did a couple of posts on. I still have a few things to write about on New Zealand, they will now move to the Wednesday slot as I’ve reviewed all the accommodations and flights from that trip. The idea with the travel itineraries is to give
