Sarajevo – Through my Lens
Hi folks. Looks like this week we're heading to Bosnia-Hercegovina. On the blog that is! It's been 14 years since I made my way from the south - crossing from Dubrovnik - to the northwest out to Zagreb, stopping at Mostar and the capital, Sarajevo. And let me just say - the capital is an …
Sunday Spotlight – Galle, Sri Lanka
Hi all. Today I’m turning the spotlight on Galle. It’s a wonderful spot in southern Sri Lanka, not too far from the capital Colombo, only a few hours by train, I think the fastest trains only take a little over two hours. Whilst there are many places with colonial ties all over the sub-continent, nowhere …
Little Places – Nuwara Eliya, Sri Lanka
Ahhh yes I know, if you’ve been following this blog this year you’ll already know I loved Nuwara Eliya. The idyllic little Hill Country town in the mountains with rolling hills of green, a lake, and curious old world charm. You might even find yourself near a crackling fire in the evening, something that’s rare …
Samarkand’s Incredible Registan
Howdy all. One of the most ‘fabled’ cities on the old Silk Road is without a doubt Uzbekistan’s Samarkand. It has a number of sites worth seeing, and a great place to experience Islamic Architecture. It’s a beautiful city, with wide roads and then miles of little backstreets in the old parts. When I visited …
Little Places – Miyajima (Japan)
Of all the incredible cities in Japan, Hiroshima ranks up there simply because of the fact that the whole thing was rebuilt after the Second World War, and that it stands as a huge monument for anyone who is anti-war and anti-nuclear weapons. It’s a friendly, fun city, perhaps not what all visitors expect, but …
The Czech Republic – Through My Lens
Today I've decided to go back through my photos to 2004 and my journey to the Czech Republic. I only got to three places - Prague, Olomouc and Kutna Hora, famous for it's crypt/ossuary decorated with human bones including a load of heads. But the photos are still pretty interesting! I hope you enjoy! …
New York – Through My Lens
New York, New York.... etc etc they named it twice! And here is how I saw it via my camera in 2004 and 1999 (the first time I had a camera with film!) Enjoy! Thanks for stopping by! And May the Journey Never End!
Xi’an – Through My Lens
Xi'an is the perfect example of a large Chinese city that has mixed modernity in with perfectly preserved history. The city walls encase the 'old and new town', whilst outside it there are more tall apartment buildings than one can count. It's the city you jump off from to see the Army of the Terracotta …
Jaswant Thada – Jewel in Jodhpur’s Crown!
As readers should know, I loved Jodhpur when I visited a few months back now, in fact it became my favourite city in Rajasthan. It sits slightly below and to the side of the incredible Mehrangarh Fort which watches over the whole city of Jodhpur. In fact, it’s only a very short walk from the …
