So you’ve decided – you want to see Jerusalem, in the Holy Land. There are many reasons to visit, and there is a lot of religious tourism as you might expect, however Jerusalem is such an historic city that even if you are like me, and don’t profess to belong to a particular religion, you …

Howdy all. Today it's time for another CovidCam. In the third installment of this semi-regular feature on my blog/youtube channel I talk and demonstrate what 'Level 3' Restrictions mean here in Australia, and take some time out to show you what my travel diaries tend to look like and some of the goodies inside! Thanks …

Yes that’s right folks, Covid-19 keeps us all tightly away in our homes, but it doesn’t mean you can’t travel – just that now you’ll have to be content with virtual travel. That means coming along with me, today to the world’s largest country of Russia, as I take you to places that thanks to …
Howdy all. I hope this Friday finds you well. Today it's time for the next Vlog in my series from last year, and this is the most interesting so far, as we dip our toes into the water that is 'Turkmenistan'. This is Vlog 6, and sees me take you from the border in Uzbekistan …

Not to be deterred by blurring vision, I have again jumped into the VLOG mire and produced this one, a shorter one than last time, about packing. I’ve been really good this time. I actually started packing a couple of weeks before leaving instead of, you know, well a few days before. I never leave …
