Howdy all. Today another selection of photos from Manila. This time I am featuring the places I visited on my second day there - places I checked out OUTSIDE Intramuros (Manila's Old Town). Anyways - Enjoy! Manila at night - photo taken from my Hotel Room. Above is the Makirina Shoe Museum, featuring shoes from …
Howdy all. If you’re just discovering my blog, every week now I have been doing a detailed post on the places I visited in 2023 when I travelled from Dhaka to Dakar. If you are not new, you’re probably sick of me mentioning this journey I undertook. Either way, here we are and today it’s …
Although I had visited the Island of Goree before on my previous trip to Senegal, on last year’s trip I still wanted to visit it again. Ile de Goree is this somewhat beautiful island, a short ferry ride from Dakar, that between the 15th and 19th centuries CE was the world’s biggest slave-trading centre. It …
Howdy all. Well today is my first in a series of photographic posts from the Philippines - Manila and El Nido from late last year. Intramuros is the historic centre of Manila, the Philippine capital.

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 …

G’day all! My last post today on Seoul, detailing the magical Day 21 of my Japan/Korea/Taiwan trip which I returned home from recently. My final day in the Korean capital of Seoul saw me explore the neighbourhood of Gangnam, made famous around 11-12 years ago now by the Korean Rapper ‘PSY’ for his song ‘Gangnam …
Howdy all, and well, the second last country here in my 2023 ‘Dhaka to Dakar’ adventure is upon the blog now, which means there isn’t much left to go! And that country is Mauritania, and I stayed just the two nights in its capital, Nouakchott. Mauritania is a large country in Africa, being the 11th …
