​Howdy all from Bolivia for the last time. This trip at least. I've just returned to Uyuni after a three-day trip to the Salar De Uyuni, so I'm going to try and give you a brief run down of how it went. In Uyuni there are loads of operators offering trips to the salt plains. …

Sweet Sucre

On 8 Nov 2016 By Andy RoamsIn adventure, backpacking, South America, travel, travel photography, travel tips2 Comments

Howdy all. My last night here in Sucre, southern-ish part of Bolivia. I've stayed three nights and would you believe this is my first three night stay since my first stay in Quito. It's been crazy and tiring and rewarding as well. Sucre is the nicest city I've been to in Bolivia. Well, I've only …

​It seems I've reverted to doing titles with words starting with the same letter! I'm wiriting this blog on the bus from Lima to Arequipa. I'm taking a very nice bus indeed with the company Oltursa, the same one that I used from Piura to Lima. They have a VIP section and the seats are …

​Hello from Lima. But my journey into Peru will be the subject of another blog post. Today I want to share a very little about my time in my last stop in Ecuador. Yes, I've left this amazing country for another. Gees it sounds so sordid when I put it like that! But my last …

Niger – Through My Lens

On 30 Sep 2016 By Andy RoamsIn Africa, African travel, backpacking, travel, travel photography, West Africa6 Comments

Well. Here it is - my last post before I jet off to South America on Sunday morning. I'm back with another photographic journey (as far as my camera skills will let me) to the land-locked West African country of Niger. A mostly desert country, Niger is probably the most remote country I've ever visited. …

Sri Lanka – Through My Lens

On 24 Sep 2016 By Andy RoamsIn adventure, backpacking, travel, travel photography4 Comments

Hello, and welcome to another 'Through My Lens'. Today I feature a series of shots from Sri Lanka, a place I loved visiting and wish I had way more time there. I really only visited Kandy and surrounds (including a day trip to the amazing Sigiriya) as well as a bit of time in Colombo …

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 …

Ghana – Through My Lens

On 2 Sep 20162 Sep 2016 By Andy RoamsIn Africa, African travel, travel, travel photography6 Comments

2006 saw me tackle West Africa for the first time. I had such plans for staying around a month in Ghana, but for some reason I wasn't in the right frame of mind when I was there. I was overwhelmed by the place to be honest, which hasn't happened to me very often. I stayed …
