Ahhh I need to post something about somewhere that wasn’t on my recent trip to India and Sri Lanka! But what to post? Ahhhh yes, I’ve written about it before, but why not Copacabana. Bolivia that is. Because I don’t think I could possibly classify the glitzy beachside suburb of Rio as a ‘Little Place’. …
One of the towns famous in Rajasthan, and let’s face it, there are many, is Pushkar. It’s a curious place, I visited it back in 1999 and again last month when I was back in India for the first time in fourteen years. And I’m not going to a whole article on the pros and …

Last week I wrote about some of the better border crossings I’ve experienced. Today I’m going to talk about the less good experiences. So, I need to start with a caveat – I’ve never really been stuck with a really bad border crossing. What would that be? Well, probably one where I didn’t even get …

Hi all. Hope you are well as the week comes to a close. Today I've put up a video of my time in Peru in late 2016. It's got a bit of stuff from Machu Picchu, I did, quite a while ago now, a full video on that. Anyways, Enjoy! Also here is my short …
Hi all! The final 'Through My Lens' for the year, and I'm taking you to Argentina where stunning Bariloche (or as the town is known, San Carlos de Bariloche) just cannot be beaten, especially when the weather is as it was when I was there. High 20s for the most part and beautiful blue skies. …
Wham bam thankyou Mam! Tokyo is a city with everything. It’s an incredible combination of skyscrapers, neon lights, parks and shrines, salary men and cosplayers in the Harajuku area. It has Maid Cafes, a Robot Restaurant (still to visit for me!), two Disney theme parks, a tower, a Skytree, and incredible metro system, brilliant museums, …
A new segment for the blog, something a little different from Sunday Spotlight which has focused on the main in smaller places, now I’m going to turn my attention to the larger cities, capital cities across the world – or large cities in general.
