Andy's Journeys to 78 countries & counting!
Lithuania – the least visited of the three Baltic countries. I visited the very picturesque capital in Vilnius, visited Trakai Castle from there and the town of the same name, and later headed north to the amazing ‘Hill of Crosses’. Here are my photos! Enjoy! Thanks for stopping by – May the Journey Never End!

Mongolia. Before going I had visions of well, steppe steppe and more steppe. Basically a flat, featureless country that was wild and yet exciting and fascinating at the same time. But that’s not the total sum of Mongolia – of course it was never going to be. From deserts to villages, the amazing Ulaan Baatar and its monuments to Genghis

You might say that Arequipa is the perfect subject for ‘Sunday Spotlight’. It’s a pretty little town, not a big city, and it’s not the most well-known destination in South America, but it’s a rewarding place to stop. I thought it was a very worthwhile stop in Peru, much more pleasant than Lima, and although Cusco is probably more interesting,

Hello, time for another RUMBLE! And this week it’s two of Europe’s heavy weights – Paris, and a city that these days seems to get compared to Paris quite a bit, the capital of the Czech Republic – Prague. Both are set on big rivers – Prague on the Vlata and of course, Paris is set on the Seine. But

Howdy all, another photographic post for you this Wednesday. Today I return to Bolivia and the amazing Salar de Uyuni and surrounds where I did a three-day tour last November. From salt flats, to salty trains, to flamingos and more, it’s one of the world’s most amazing destinations without a single doubt! Enjoy! Thanks for stopping by – May the

Melbourne is regarded as a pretty big city when it comes to terms of physical size, from west to east. The truth is that parts of what are considered ‘Melbourne’ could easily be considered separate towns in their own rights. In fact, it’s really not clear what is technically ‘Melbourne’ and what isn’t! At some point down the Mornington Peninsula,

Today’s Sunday Spotlight is shone at the adorable city of Irkutsk, in Siberia, Russia, not too far from the beautiful Lake Baikal – the world’s biggest inland lake. On the train heading to Irkutsk from Ulaan Baatar I was chatting with several people, including one guy who reckoned that Irkutsk was one of the least impressive cities he’d visited. So

This week’s sunset is a little closer to home. In fact it was around a week ago over my back fence! Hope you’re having a great Sunday wherever you may be reading this from! Thanks for stopping by – May the Journey Never End!

Laos is a wonderful, wonderful country to visit for the traveller. Really, it’s hard not to fall in love with the place. It’s often bundled in with other South East Asian countries, in fact I think it’s fair to say I didn’t meet any traveller when I was there who was JUST going to Laos. It’s almost a sure thing

The country that is the subject of this week’s ‘Through My Lens’ is the dusty, land locked country in West Africa Burkina Faso. I visited twice, now ten years ago. The cities/towns seemed to have fields or basically wilderness in the middle. It’s a wild sort of place, and ever so hot – most days were around the 40 degrees
