G’day all. We are reaching the close, the climax, the final destination of this trip I took LAST YEAR from Dhaka, Bangladesh to Dakar, Senegal. Saly would be the penultimate stop. Last week I wrote about Saint Louis, in the north of Senegal. Senegal is a curiously shaped country as it actually surrounds the country …
G’day folks! Today I’m reviewing my few days in Saint Louis, Senegal, a unique little city partly on a couple of island, and partly (or to be more accurate, mostly) on mainland Senegal. Two long little islands connect to the mainland via the Pont Faidherbe, a bridge featuring in most of the postcards you can …

We’re up to day 16 now when I sped from Busan in Korea’s south to the capital in the north (of South Korea) by high speed train. Over these three days …
Howdy all. Following from last Saturday’s blog, I continue through the trip – I am now home as I write this by the way, the trip just FLEW by! I am still going through the story of last year’s Dhaka to Dakar trip as well and have not really delved into the trip I took …
G’day all. The latest on my latest trip for you. Last time I was writing about the experiences of visiting the city of Fukuoka. Over a three day period I did two and a half day trips, so I wanted to outline those for you in this post. Day 11 Itoshima I’m still not clear …
