So yes, there’s a lot going on in the world and the moment. And a lot of it is dealing with racism, racism in its many forms and incarnations. People are defying lockdowns and social distancing to protest for Black Lives Matter which has raised debates here there and everywhere not so much about the …
Last week I wrote a post about how the most important and enjoyable part of travel for me is the ‘journey’ part, the ‘getting there’. There are so many aspects to travel, and what is en vogue these days is ‘slow travel’. That’s basically taking your time and staying long term in places. A month …
Michael Von Wurden. Remember that name. This man from Denmark created the TV series Gift ved Forste Blik – better known as ‘Married at First Sight’ in Australia and in any of the many countries that have taken this reality-TV format and run with it. I know it’s a departure from my usual topics on …

Last year I took Virgin Australia for the first time. A flight from Sydney back to Melbourne, then flying from Melbourne to the Sunshine Coast (Maroochydore) and then back from Brisbane. Three flights in one year, all domestic, how did I find them? Virgin (worldwide and in Australia) is of course the airline of billionaire …

Okay. So here I’ve set myself up haven’t I? This is a really tricky face off between two BIG cities. One I’ve already had in a rumble before – that’s Moscow, when it faced off against compatriot Saint Petersburg. It didn’t quite win the race there. Will it fair any better against Germany’s capital?

Hi all. Something new today – I wanted to talk about countries I’ve been to which I think were highly worthwhile, yet they don’t receive the number of visitors they should, or they get a lot but the place seems to have a bit of a bad rap. Or both. Please take the chance to …
Hey all. Well it’s official, I think. I think I hate my home airport, Melbourne’s Tullamarine. There are plenty of reasons not to like it, but after my last trip there, I’m pretty much fed up. There are two pressing issues with Melbourne’s main international airport. The first is the distance. Having to get there …
Last week I headed up to the Sunshine Coast and Noosa, where I stayed at the RACV Resort there. Even Australians may well not be aware that the Royal Automobile Club of Victoria (and also Queensland – RACQ) ran resorts, but they do! Searching online I found that this was one place that seemed to …
Hi folks, it’s another Sunday, and another ‘three’. This time I’m talking about cities I liked visiting in South America. I wanted to try and steer clear of capital cities, and I did it! So don’t be confused by my third option, it is not the capital! South America is an incredible continent, I can’t …

Hi all. Time to change it up a little. Today I’m looking at one of the larger Eastern European countries, Romania. It’s been well over a decade since I visited Romania, but I still remember it as a great destination for a variety of reasons. Here, today, are five of them! It’s Varied! From the …
