Andy's Journeys to 78 countries & counting!
There are several must-sees (although they all escape me :P) and several must-dos when you are in Egypt. For me, there was no competition – the best was taking a Felucca down the Nile River for three days and two nights. A few months ago I was given a bunch of photos from my time in Egypt, 1999, which had

When travelling from Australia or eastern Asia to Europe, there are number of possible airlines and routes to get you there, and one of the most popular, usually flying Emirates, is to go via Dubai. Emirates connects a large number of European cities to a large number of Asian/Australian towns. And I always hear people wondering if they should take

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.

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
