G'day all! Today's little vlog takes us - me and you - from Tokyo's Narita Airport into the centre of Tokyo - and beyond to Yokohama. How do we make this journey? Narita is a long way from the centre of Tokyo - around 70km. There's no question - the Narita Express, a fast train, …

Although I had visited the Island of Goree before on my previous trip to Senegal, on last year’s trip I still wanted to visit it again. Ile de Goree is this somewhat beautiful island, a short ferry ride from Dakar, that between the 15th and 19th centuries CE was the world’s biggest slave-trading centre. It …
Hi All! Today I continue my July of reviewing shorts from earlier this year. After Tokyo I clearly slowed down only doing three from leaving Tokyo to leaving Japan altogether. I stayed in Fukuoka and today's shorts feature the Shinkansen adventure to Fukuoka, and a couple of day trips I did from there - to …

Well, it had to happen – I had to eventually make it to Dakar!! It was around the 21st of April last year I think that I took the last overland portion of the Dhaka to Dakar adventure and made it to the Senegalese capital. In three parts I am going to summarise my experiences …
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 …
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. I start off at …

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 …
