Welcome to a new series of Friday articles which will tide us over for the next four or five weeks until the podcast resumes called ‘Gateway Countries’. People often talk about ‘gateway cities’, a good place to start if you’re going to a new country, one with plenty of transport in and out etc, but …
Hi all just a brief post today, I am quite under the weather at the moment 😦 I wanted to share a link with you to another blog post from a blog called 'My Wanderlist' I recently discovered. Brad writes some great stuff, but this blog post of a couple of days ago was worrying. …
During the week someone lay down the challenge to me to write about Lahore, so here I am responding to the challenge. Now, Pakistan is probably not right at the top of anyone’s travel itinerary right now. It’s not really the safest of countries and hasn’t been for a few years. I went ten years …
Howdy all! Today I want to take you to a seriously beautiful place on this planet, in a country in Southern Europe you might not have visited but if not, should definitely be on your list! Slovenia is a wonderful mix of history and nature. Ljubljana is an amazing capital with a castle, rivers, gorgeous …
Let’s be honest, Lome is probably NOT at the top of your list of places you want to see in your lifetime. Togo is a small, and very thin country in West Africa, between Ghana and Benin, and although it’s pleasant enough, there just isn’t a lot of reasons to head there. BUT, if you …
The main city in southern Vietnam, and the former capital, Ho Chi Minh City is the most popular starting or ending point for backpackers and tourists heading into Vietnam. One thing’s for sure, the place has a lot going for it, I had a brilliant time a couple of years ago when I visited again. …
Howdy folks. It's time for a little reflection on the world today and the way things are done. Have a look at the two girls in the photo above I saw one my day trip to Hakone a month ago now. What exactly is going on there? It looks like the girl on the left …
Today, it's a special GUEST POST from Jessica from Turquoise Compass. I feel very privileged to have been approached by Jessica to contribute a guest post. It's on a country and a part of the world I have never been to (naturally I am extremely jealous) - Guyana, South America. So, I will turn it …

Hi everyone I wasn't going to blog at all today, I am trying to restrict myself to five posts a week although at the moment it's six, when I finally start working (it's coming!) then I think five will be about the maximum I can manage. But I have a free afternoon and I thought …
If there was one city in China I was keen to visit before I went there, it was Shanghai. Why? Perhaps it seemed the most romantic of China’s cities? The most forward-thinking even back before China opened itself up to tourism, full of shiny skyscrapers and technology. Ripped off technology, sure, but technology none-the-less. I …
