For my 'City Rumble' post I had to scan in all my photos from 2001 Mumbai. I cam across this one which I really liked.

City Rumble – Mumbai versus Delhi
Hmmmm, at what point in this post will I mention just how much I dislike Delhi? DAMN already given the game away. But the fact is, Delhi and I have a hate-hate relationship. It hates me and I hate it. Although to be fair, I never did anything to Delhi. In return it has made …
The Beauty of Bagan – Part One
There’s no doubt about it, Bagan is THE must see destination of Myanmar. What is Bagan? Well, Bagan is an ancient city in Myanmar, sort of in the middle of the country 5 hours by minibus from Mandalay and a good day’s journey from the former capital Yangon (Rangoon). The temples of Bagan are spread …
Sunday Spotlight – Xi’an
It being Sunday means it’s time to shine the spotlight on another city. Today we go inland into China to the citadel of Xi’an. Xi’an is a fast growing city and a half, as are many places in modern China. As I came in from the airport (after my delayed and eventful flight on Spring …

And people are missing …
Foto Friday – Lion’s Foot, Sigiriya
Here you see the final ascent to the very top of Sigiriya. As you can see there is a giant lion's foot carved into the rock. I was absolutely exhausted by this stage, but still found the strength and the will to look beyond the vertigo to get to the very top! Sri Lanka, 2012.
Sunday Spotlight – Cape Coast, Ghana
Foto Friday featured a shot from Elmina, a small fishing town on the coast of Ghana. When I visited Elmina I did it in an afternoon from the bigger Cape Coast, a short tro-tro ride away. Tro-tros are the local transport, like a mini-van in some ways, packed to the hilt, not very comfortable but …
Trip of a Life Time – Boston and the Trip is re-jigged
I was worrying about this post a bit. I was worrying that frankly I don’t remember much about my time in these two places, especially Boston. But then I remembered that Boston was the place where I stayed in the Bean Town Hostel, which in itself was an experience and a half of full cream …
