Folks! The incredible Old Town of the city of Jeddah, on the Red Sea in Saudi Arabia. Take a detailed look and walk through the street of Al Balad and check out the shops, mosques, historic houses and meet perhaps my first ever Saudi subscribers! Not to mention the cats of Al-Balad! Enjoy! https://youtu.be/lxzeqNa2RtU Thanks …
G’day all! Today I wanted to write a post for you on Saudi-Arabia which I visited last year as part of my journey from Dhaka to Dakar. As it is a destination that hasn’t been accessible until pretty recently I thought I would do a post about it for you letting you know some basic …
G’day all. We are reaching the close, the climax, the final destination of this trip I took LAST YEAR from Dhaka, Bangladesh to Dakar, Senegal. Saly would be the penultimate stop. Last week I wrote about Saint Louis, in the north of Senegal. Senegal is a curiously shaped country as it actually surrounds the country …
So, after every holiday there comes that time when you have to return home, to life and reality. And that came for me quicker than I would have liked certainly just over a month ago now. BUT – there was still a quick stopover to enjoy before getting back to the daily grind, and this …
Yes folks, I'm back and so's Adrian and today we delve into the inner city suburb of Melbourne! Once a working class suburb full of factories, today it's very definitely undergone a major transformation (not necessarily a good thing) and is full of little shops, bars, breweries, art galleries and more.

G'day folks. Well - the last country on my Dhaka to Dakar quest was Senegal, and luckily for this one I kept a few notes and a couple of coins for you to check out below. The CFA - exactly what the letters stand for appears to be up for debate but the best approximation …
G’day folks! Today I’m reviewing my few days in Saint Louis, Senegal, a unique little city partly on a couple of island, and partly (or to be more accurate, mostly) on mainland Senegal. Two long little islands connect to the mainland via the Pont Faidherbe, a bridge featuring in most of the postcards you can …

G’day all! My last post today on Seoul, detailing the magical Day 21 of my Japan/Korea/Taiwan trip which I returned home from recently. My final day in the Korean capital of Seoul saw me explore the neighbourhood of Gangnam, made famous around 11-12 years ago now by the Korean Rapper ‘PSY’ for his song ‘Gangnam …
Folks, Not so long ago I went to a place in Docklands, Melbourne, called 'ArtVo'. I entered the space pretty much ignorant of what 'ArtVo' was, but what I discovered was an 'immersive' experience set up for people to take photos of themselves in front of large, beautiful artwork. What is it 'my kinda place'? …

Howdy all! Following on from last week's post about Peter, Paul and Mary, today I have another classic of theirs to share - I Dig Rock N'Roll Music. This was covered by Carol Burnett and Vicki Lawrence on the former's variety show back in the 1970s, so I wanted to share bother versions and ask …
