In today's blog I present an interview with Rob Lloyd - friend of the blog who was away from late April to late August visiting the States, Canada and the UK performing at various festivals in those places. Enjoy! Hi Rob! You’ve had a really busy year in 2017 – and it’s not finished yet! …

It was TEN whole years ago now that I visited the Baltics. And I realise, like Slovenia, I have written precious little about them on this version of the blog. What can I tell you? I really liked all three countries. They were cold. Especially Estonia. But it was October and Estonia is the northern …
Hi everyone. The Melbourne Fringe Festival is on again! Friend of the Blog Rob Lloyd has another amazing one man show running this year, an adaptation of the 1955 book by Jack Finney. I thought I’d do a little post to plug his show. The setting is Santa Mira, and Rob portrays Dr Miles Bennel, …

One place I went this year in London that I really enjoyed was the National Portrait Gallery. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting London with an eye on history and especially British Royalty. For starters – it, like many museums and galleries in London, is FREE. Plenty of people there to check it out, …
After going through my Georgia photos, I found these two in Batumi looking across the Black Sea. Hope you're having a good Sunday! Thanks for stopping - May the Journey Never End!!
No no, it's not 'closed for reconstruction' or anything like that. I've taken the chance to update some of my 'country' pages, and more to the point to create a few new ones. These 'country' pages list all the posts I've made on a particular country. So I don't usually do a Saturday post, but …
I’ve been going through all my posts lately and putting them in ‘country’ pages, and I realised I haven’t blogged much at all about Slovenia (amongst quite a few countries I’ve been to). So I thought I’d address that. Starting today with my itinerary through Slovenia. I should point out from the very start that …
I was going through photos and I realised - I have a lot of photos from Georgia. Well, I was there for three months in 2011. I was surprised to find I had so many I needed to split it into two posts. I was teaching English there. We started in the capital Tbilisi, went …
I really wasn’t sure what to expect when I visited Ulaan Baatar, or if you prefer, ‘UB’, earlier this year. Would it be this large, over bearing Soviet megastructure, would it be more Chinese in style? What I found was neither. Yes, you will see remnants of Soviet times. Mongolia may have remained on the …

Another week begins, and today’s post is talking about a scam I experienced in Moscow. I think I’m pretty decent at picking up when I’m entering a scam situation -from Cairns to India I’ve avoided a few, fallen for one. And now I’ve fallen for two, and the second was in Moscow earlier this year. …
