Well, I'm writing this on the train from Paris to Noramandy. Another whirlwind three and a half days have come to an end here in Paris. I was happy to go to Paris because I don't have any decent photos of the place. I've passed through a couple of times in 2006 and 2011 but …
Howdy from the capital of England, Great Britain and the Whoniverse. Although that might be Cardiff these days. It's Satuday evening, tomorrow morning I take the Eurostar to Paris. Again, it's been a busy week here, Cambridge and Sheffield. I was planning on a bit more of a relaxing time, but well, I've been up …
Somehow I am suddenly in the United Kingdom! Strange how you suddenly find yourself in a different country. Well not really but it's always a bizarre feeling. Just as I was getting used to Russia. I'm AirBnB-ing it in London, but today I've taken a trip north to Cambridge, which is an incredibly beautiful town …
Well, tomorrow I leave Moscow for London. It's been an incredible time since I left Beijing a little over two weeks ago. It's been another whirlwind trip, but it's still going. However, I hope to slow the pace down in London because everyday is either travel or packed with things to see and do. And …

Howdy all fron Russia! Today I had the chance to take a day trip to Lake Baikal. I'm stay in the city of Irkutsk, which is 63km from the town of Listvyanka, so I hopped on a mini-bus today and made my way down to see the world's largest inland lake, which holds something like …
So I've had a couple of nights back here in Ulaan Baatar. Tonight it's a train over two nights and one day to the Russian city of Irkutsk on or near Lake Baikal. Ulaan Baatar is not an unattractive city. It has its Soviet influence, and right now it's kinda brown waiting for the leaves …
Later today I leave for six weeks away, visiting China, Mongolia, Russia, England, France and Japan. Here is my list of the top seven things I’m looking forward to. Not working But seriously, right? This is going to be so nice not getting up early for split shifts, away from the monotony of work. Not …

Well, it’s that time, almost time to take off! I am leaving tomorrow night just before midnight Melbourne time and flying via Hong Kong to Beijing. It’s odd, the first time I can recall working on the day I leave. But – my packing is sorted, tickets too. I hope! Not much left to do …
