I read a blog earlier this week talking about places that weren’t well known but really worth visiting, and Lyon was amongst them. Which sort of surprised me because I thought it was well-known. I loved Lyon. It’s really a glorious city and despite being there in 40 degree heat during August 2011. I can’t …
One of the most amazing cities in Iran, Yazd features mud-brick buildings aplenty and is a wonderful place to explore.
Hello folks and the happiest of New Year’s to you once again. As 2015 slowly whirrs into gear and I look with horror at all the shifts I am to do this week, once we clicked over to 2015 I suddenly realised that I am going travelling again! Yes, six weeks away! I have been …
So. If you’re in Europe and want to go somewhere that doesn’t quite see the tourists that the big cities of Paris, Rome, Prague etc see, let me suggest one to you – Luxembourg. One of the smaller countries in Europe, Luxembourg and its main city, Luxembourg, are both charming spots to visit and although …
If you thought I took too few pictures when I was in the London and UK, then you’ll be even more dismayed at my time in Ireland. Two lousy photos is all I took! And a third was taken for me at the Guinness Factory that I didn’t make it too because I was hung …

The capital city is the ‘fun-to-pronounce’ Ouagadougou, and whilst it is not a city with a million sights to see, it has a certain character that makes it a …

I have recently been planning my trip next year furiously. I am a planner, although I don’t mind sorting it all out on the road on a longer journey when I’m only away for a few weeks I like to plan it out a bit so I don’t miss anything I’ll regret later. I have …

If you’re travelling to Europe from Australia, or indeed Africa from Australia as I was in 2009, it’s hard to go past one of the Emirati Airlines because the trip is nicely portioned into a 14-hour journey from Dubai or Abu Dhabi to Sydney or Melbourne, plus a shorter trip to the other two continents. …
Ahhh Prague – How I remember thee in 1999! It really was an awesome 5 days, even if I can’t remember all of it or even half of it! I took an overnight train from Amsterdam to Dresden. I was very happy that I paid an extra 40 bucks or so to upgrade to a …
