Hello all on this fair Sunday. I’ve taken a baton from Tim from urbanduniya.com to complete this list, which he in turn had handed from Bren on the Road. Well, to be fair it was my idea to take this post from Tim. He left me free to change a few of the items, and …
Howdy all, hope this post finds you well. One of the highlights of my time a few years back now in Cameroon was a visit to the village of ‘Bali’. For Australians, ‘Bali’ generally will only ever mean the Indonesian island where we flock in droves. (not me, not yet!) In fact, I would presume …
As promised, following my visit to Melbourne’s Eureka Tower, today I present a ‘Tower Rumble’ looking at towers I have gone up myself and seeing which provided the best experience. There is nothing like going up a tower when you’re in a city – especially if it’s a new city, to see the layout of …
Howdy all. Bringing back to my home city today, and yesterday I spent a awesome afternoon with fellow travel-blogger and friend of the blog, Tim Blight. Our task was to head up Melbourne’s tallest building – the Eureka Tower, to the 88th floor for a view of smoky Melbourne. The Eureka tower is just under …
Yes, another Sunday, another ‘Spotlight’, and today we’re heading to Georgia and its second (or maybe third) city of Batumi. It sits on the eastern edge of the Black Sea, and has a population of 155,000 or so (so not particularly big). However, it is pretty much Georgia’s second city, and it is by far …
Howdy all on this Thursday. Here in Melbourne the weather is as crazy as it’s ever been, making it’s way into the high-30s only to fall rapidly into the low twenties and the skies open up. Last week we had 44 degrees, today the forecast maximum is 21 but by Sunday it will be back …
Hey all to my second ‘Tasting’ segment on the blog. Today I want to talk about a dish, rather than a restaurant, which I had the pleasure of eating when I was in Iran. A good chance to point out that the plan is not for every week to be a restaurant review! I recall …
Okay. So here I’ve set myself up haven’t I? This is a really tricky face off between two BIG cities. One I’ve already had in a rumble before – that’s Moscow, when it faced off against compatriot Saint Petersburg. It didn’t quite win the race there. Will it fair any better against Germany’s capital?

Argentina really is a fabulous place to explore. I barely touched the surface, with only three places visited plus a day trip from Buenos Aires. It’s a land of contrasts and great natural beauty, of seas and mountains, and cities too. Whilst Buenos Aires is a genuine ‘big city’, with amazing buildings and scale not …
Hi all! Cambodia has been in my thoughts lately since I outlined my travel itinerary from 2000 when I visited the country. It was a significant country on my travelling journeys, after 14 months at home following my first backpacking adventure in 1999, I could scarcely believe I was off again November 2000 for another …
