Back with another review of my time in the sky in my latest jaunt off to South-East Asia. I have flown mostly on Air Asia over the last few years, they are almost always the cheapest airline around Asia and until the crash on the 28th of December last year, a safe airline to fly. …
Howdy all. So now my reviews are moving on to the recent flights I took. I have already ranted and raved about my crappy experience on Jetstar on the way home, sometimes one just needs to get stuff out of one’s system. My experience with the Dreamliner on the flight over to Bangkok, back on …
The last of my reviews of the budget places I stayed at in my recent journey to Thailand and Myanmar, I returned to Thailand after 17 days in Myanmar and headed up to Chiang Mai, a place I felt at least had changed even more than Bangkok in some ways since my 1999 visit. Not …
Well, I didn’t find this place in my guide book, but it seemed to fit what I needed and I found it online by chance. It had a nice website and it looked new and pretty clean, and it was both those things, although it wasn’t quite as I expected it. Still, Yangon may not …

Thazi is not a place that tourists rush to, it’s one of those places they pass through on their way somewhere else. It sits on main highways and has a biggish train station, and it was my rest between Bagan and Inle Lake. Not that a rest stop is really needed, it was only a …

This was the one I was really looking forward to staying in. It looked so above its price – I paid less than $30US per night – through its pictures and website that I was sure I had the bargain of the trip. And really, I wasn’t disappointed although I probably had over-estimated the place …
My recent trip had me three nights in Bangkok before taking a flight to Mandalay in Myanmar and the start of my Burmese leg. On the day I arrived I took a taxi into town, and then I took a share taxi up the hill to the hill station of Pyin Oo Lwin. Here it …

As I have mentioned before, Melbourne is not short on festivals. If you're a fan of drama, comedy, or just like to see a show from time to time, you can do a lot worse than head to Melbourne at the right time of the year when a festival is on. Right now we are …

In the spirit of reviewing things, and the interest it seems to create when I DO review something (My KLIA2 review very quickly became my most viewed post) I thought I’d review my recent flights of a week and a half ago on Air Asia. For those of you who have never flown Air Asia, …
