Howdy all and Happy Tuesday wherever you may be in the world right now - unless it's not Tuesday, in which case please substitute the appropriate day! Today the destination is the town of Galle in the south of Sri Lanka. This town is one that is certainly very popular to travel to, seeing a …
India is one of the greatest countries in the world to travel. It has its challenges, for sure, and that’s half the fun of going there. If you don’t face the odd challenge or two when you are travelling, you may have a great time but are you growing in any way? And my memories …

Howdy all, it’s time to take to the skies again for another flight review, and this time it’s with Irish Airline ‘Ryan Air’, which over the last ten or so years has built up a real swag of flight routes across and within Europe. I’d never flown Ryan Air before or in fact a real …

And no – this is NOT a Covid-19 post! This post is one I’ve come to write after watching the one and only season they made of ‘Pan Am’, set in 1963 following the lives of four Pan Am air stewardesses and a captain and first officer – a group that actually flew together. I …
