Following on from finding my 1999 photos, even though I don’t specifically have any from this trip, I was reminded about it. In Russia, stations are often named after their destinations, a somewhat novel approach perhaps but it makes a bit of sense too I guess. So when you head to Moscow from St Petersburg, …
Yes folks, I wanted to bring a couple more posts to your attention. There are so many inspiring travel bloggers out there, here are three awesome posts from three great travel bloggers out there. Firstly, Derek Freal. He's out of Indonesia now thankfully and safe enough. Here's the blog he put up when he was …

But over the weekend they were returned in almost perfect condition, bringing much relief to me. Amongst them, most importantly, were the albums from my first …

Contrary to what followers of my blog might be led to believe considering what I have been posting for years, I have actually been to the American Continent.
