As Central Asia week continues, I bring you a little photo journey though he capital of Kyrgyzstan, little Bishkek. Not as big as the other regional capitals, Bishkek has a charm of its own and is actually a quite attractive city with some beautiful parks, lots of theatre, a strange museum which suggests that Kyrgyzstan …
Come with me on this little (well, 17 minutes) video of my time in Kazakhstan, entitled ‘Curious Kazakhstan’. It’s been a while since I posted on Central Asia, but I still look at it very fondly. It’s one of the most rewarding places a solo backpacker can head in my opinion. In this city you’ll …
Poland has a number of great cities, but I think it’s pretty hard to go past Krakow in the country’s south as the best city going around. Which is why the Sunday Spotlight is shining straight at this lovely city, filled with alleyways and hills, with a stunning central city square where everyone congregates and …

How quickly would it take on my second visit to India to be in strife again? Well, as it turned out, not long! The flight from London was, to say the least, ‘bouncy’. I’d taken dozens of flights in 1999, but somehow I must have missed any sort of decent turbulence. Not so in 2000-01, …
Hi everyone! It's occurred to me that I have never really introduced my travel videos to you, so I thought over the next however-many Mondays it was time to do just that! Along with travel and taking photos, I have also done a lot of amateur videoing in my life. I've managed to take videos …
Today the spotlight is back and it’s shining Romania-way to a university town in the westish northish part of a country that has most of its international reputation built on the back of a dude who inspired the legend of Dracula and vampires and fast forward a few centuries and we have the awesome TV …
