Howdy all. I have planned to write a detailed dissection of my tour through Turkmenistan last year, a country which is a hell of a destination, and one that is generally off the traditional and well-worn ‘travel map’ as it were. And today is the day! I wind the clock back nine months (with 2020 …

Howdy all, and today I’m going to review our stay in Lisbon, Portugal last year. Whereas we’d been sticking to hotels up until hitting the Portuguese capital, in this instance we decided to give Air BnB another go.

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 …

Folks, let's travel along to Vietnam today, and have a look at the former Saigon, as it's known today - Ho Chi Minh City. Always been curious if the locals don't like the name as the south held out the longest back in the war of the 1960s and 70s, but I didn't hear anyone …
