How do you feel about big cities? I mean, cities that are in some way or form pretty much monolithic? As travellers, we inevitably end up visiting big cities despite how we might or might not feel about the experience. Even if the ultimate goal is not to go to the ‘big city’ of a …
Last week I wrote a post about how the most important and enjoyable part of travel for me is the ‘journey’ part, the ‘getting there’. There are so many aspects to travel, and what is en vogue these days is ‘slow travel’. That’s basically taking your time and staying long term in places. A month …
Myanmar has plenty of things to see and do and visit, and one that I had the pleasure of visiting when I was there back four years now, was the U-Bein Bridge. It is or at least was the longest teak wood bridge in the world – something that I guess wasn’t particularly amazing to …

I’ve read a couple of very interesting and thoughtful posts on other blogs lately. A shout …
Howdy all. Well, as my trip draws closer I am starting to prepare for the packing by buying things I will need. I think that an action camera is a must these days, if only for the simple reason you can keep it in your pocket and pull it out whenever you need it. Although …
