Yes, here's a shot to prove I've actually been to the US of A. And to be true, I loved San Francisco! I must admit I've taken better photos in my life, but I love the way the ferry is blurred and appears to be going at speeds it couldn't actually achieve! Hope you're having …
Hey folks. Mega busy at the moment and very little time to blog. Sorry if you’ve been missing my ramblings! Let me tell you about a little place I went a couple of months back called ‘Walhalla’. For those unfamiliar with the history of my home state of Victoria, a lot of country areas were …
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 …

And so I boarded the train in Rome to head to France. I heard a story about two guys who had taken their seats on a train in Rome, left their bags there and popped out of the carriage for a second only to return and find their bags gone. So, you know, I was …
I promised myself I would lay off West Africa a little bit after all the stuff on Burkina Faso and the malaria, but well when I was thinking ahead for this week’s Sunday Spotlight, all I could think of was Accra, the capital of Ghana. Now, I have to start by saying I can’t say …
For anyone familiar with the ‘Carry On’ films, there’s one of the best (it helps if you have an appalling taste in humour) called ‘Carry on Up the Khyber’. Which I am using to segue from my title to my actual post here. 2004, as part of my crossing from Dhaka to Europe by land, …
