There are dozens upon dozens of epic rail journeys in India. I brought you the one from Mumbai to Goa a while ago now. That one, however, I did in 2AC class, just about the best class you can take on Indian Railways. For this overnight journey on the rails, however, I stuck to my …
Less than an hour from Melbourne (in good traffic) and reachable by metro train from the city, Puffing Billy is the train highlight of Melbourne. If you love trains, you love steam, or even if you fancy a day out in one of the most beautiful parts of the state of Victoria, then Puffing Billy …
The final ‘Train Journeys’ from Myanmar. Sorry, meant to have this up months ago but the long queue of things I needed to edit just didn’t allow me time to do the video until this week! So, it was more than a year ago now that I took this trip – seems rather strange …
Five years and one day ago I was here at Da Lat about to take the train. This couple had chosen the train at the station for the perfect spot for their wedding photos, often taken well before the wedding in Vietnam. May the Journey Never End!
Yes, back again on Thursday with the conclusion to my Australia itinerary. Last week I detailed what I thought would be a good east coast jaunt from Cairns down to Melbourne. Take a bus or a plane – domestic air travel is as cheap as it’s ever been in Australia right now (look to Tiger …

It seems the whole world of blogging decided to do a review of their 2015 highlights recently. Well, I didn’t think of it until I saw everyone doing it because I’m a follower, not a leader. So, a little later than those who did it last year, here’s mine to kick of my blogs (that …
Although I’m in the process of reviewing all the experiences of my very recent trip to New Zealand and Sydney, earlier in the year I had an amazing trip to Thailand and Myanmar. This Sunday, with Christmas sneaking up behind me quietly but very quickly, I thought I’d return back to Myanmar and do a …
Hello, get aboard that train again because today I’m reminiscing about a wonderful train experience in Myanmar.
