Hi all! Cambodia has been in my thoughts lately since I outlined my travel itinerary from 2000 when I visited the country. It was a significant country on my travelling journeys, after 14 months at home following my first backpacking adventure in 1999, I could scarcely believe I was off again November 2000 for another …
So you may have noticed I’ve started 2019 off by posting on Cambodia a bit. My second ever backpacking adventure was a two month affair encompassing Cambodia, Thailand, the UK and then India on the way home, and I recently realised I’ve never scanned the pictures in from that adventure, so now seemed to be …
Hi all. 'Little Places' today is taking me back to the year 2000. It was November-December and I was on my second ever solo backpacking trip, and first stop was South East Asia. Cambodia was the country to be explored, and I had met up with three random travellers who had connected on the Lonely …
Hi all. Another 'Top' post looking back at 2018. Here are some of my favourite photos I took last year. What do you think? Thanks for stopping by today - May the Journey Never End!

Hi folks. Looks like this week we're heading to Bosnia-Hercegovina. On the blog that is! It's been 14 years since I made my way from the south - crossing from Dubrovnik - to the northwest out to Zagreb, stopping at Mostar and the capital, Sarajevo. And let me just say - the capital is an …
Hi all. Today I’m turning the spotlight on Galle. It’s a wonderful spot in southern Sri Lanka, not too far from the capital Colombo, only a few hours by train, I think the fastest trains only take a little over two hours. Whilst there are many places with colonial ties all over the sub-continent, nowhere …
Ahhh yes I know, if you’ve been following this blog this year you’ll already know I loved Nuwara Eliya. The idyllic little Hill Country town in the mountains with rolling hills of green, a lake, and curious old world charm. You might even find yourself near a crackling fire in the evening, something that’s rare …
Last year I fulfilled one of the items on my bucket list, that was to take the trans-Mongolian through China, Mongolia and Russia to Moscow. On the way, I stopped off in a few cities/towns, and my first stop in Russia was the Siberian city of Irkutsk. It was a place I hadn’t heard, read …

It’s another Sunday, and this time it’s a bit different. Here are three interesting hostels you might stay at if you were to visit the cities they live in. It’s always nice to stay somewhere which is a bit ‘different’, escape the normal hostel for somewhere more unique. I’ve stayed in two of these three …
