Last year at the start of October I began my South American Adventure with a visit to Galapagos. I wasn’t really sure how I was going to do it, I wasn’t sure what the best way to visit it was to be honest. It seemed to me that I really needed to consider taking a …
See, I can't stop the loving on Rio De Janeiro. Hope you are well wherever you are in the world. These pics are the only panoramas I took in my 3 days in Rio. Hope they brighten someone's Sunday! Notice if you will the photo of the Metropolitan Cathedral interior - an up-down panorama. 🙂 …
Two Thousand and Two. Yep, it was a long time ago. My university offered a subject where the students actually went to Bangladesh for a three week study tour to study International Development in Bangladesh. Don’t panic Australian taxpayers – we had to fork the money out ourselves! And it turned out to be an …
Ecuador has recently got a number of trains up and running, and polished up the service on some of the others like the ‘Nariz del Diablo’ – The Nose of the Devil. This is a good thing. Probably. Well I prefer train journeys that are proper journeys instead of a short tourist ride to be …
Travel. Backpacking. Both have changed an incredible amount in the last two decades. My first solo trip was 18 years ago now. Early February 1999 and I headed out on my first round the world adventure stopping in Thailand as my first stop. Khao San Road was far more basic compared to today. No fast …
Happy Friday to everyone out there. I recently compiled a very short (3.5 minutes) video of Machu Picchu. I was sure I had taken more video footage whilst I was there, yet it seems I took far more of the train journey there (which will feature on a 'Train Journeys' post coming soon!) than at …
Yes, time for me to indulge my love of panoramas again, and today I take you to the salt flats, Salar De Uyuni, in southern Bolivia. I was on a three-day tour to the salt flats and the surrounding areas right up to the Chilean border, there were many lakes, sulphur reserves, rock formations and …
Howdy All Back with another video I compiled in the last week or so showing sea lions on Isla San Cristobel, Galapagos. This is the first real run my action camera got - although the land stuff is mostly shot on my Nikon 3300. If you're interested in what I used of course. I shot …

When people are asking me for my number one experience from South America, I have little hesitation in saying ‘Galapagos’. Even though the place was way more touristy than I had envisioned (same could be said about all of South America, really) the waters, animals and volcanoes made it so different from anything else in …

Okay – I know cricket isn’t everyone’s ‘bag’, but personally I like it. I’ve only been to two cricket games on the sub-continent. I should rectify that some day. I went to a one day international in Dhaka, Bangladesh in 2002 which was really a lot of fun. But I’m writing about my day at, …
