It’s been a while since I did a ‘Travel Itineraries’ post, so I thought it was time I looked at some of my itineraries in various places that I’ve been again. And for no particular reason, I decided to start with Bolivia today. Bolivia is a land-locked country in South America, and one that’s mostly …

Hello folks. Today I’m looking back to November last year when I spent a week in Buenos Aires. But I did get the chance to take one day trip out of the hustle and bustle of one of South America’s biggest cities. And after a few days in BA you get the need for a …

Located in the north-east of Ethiopia, Gondar is an interesting town with its own castle Fasilides Castle, founded by the Emperor of the same name who founded both the castle and the town. The town was founded in 1635. The castle is interesting because it is strangely European in style and there are some large …
Today's Spotlight is shone on the northern city in Kazakhstan of Semey. I ventured there a few years ago now (really I can't believe it's been SIX years! Time is going too fast I tells ya!) as the first city I went to bar Almaty. I took the overnight train, which was quite a cool …
Howdy all. So sorry I can't seem to nail these things down in one post. But such is life I guess. Ethiopia, it's pretty wonderful really. My favourite country in Africa. Today a selection of photos from the capital Addis Ababa and Lalibela, a short flight from Addis and the home to a series of …
