Howdy all. Today I thought I would do a thoughtful type of post, and reflect on my time in Pakistan some 15 years ago. 2004 was a hell of a trip, it was my plan to go from Bangladesh to Europe (and then onto West Africa, which didn’t end up happening that trip). It was …
As promised, following my visit to Melbourne’s Eureka Tower, today I present a ‘Tower Rumble’ looking at towers I have gone up myself and seeing which provided the best experience. There is nothing like going up a tower when you’re in a city – especially if it’s a new city, to see the layout of …
Howdy all on this Thursday. Here in Melbourne the weather is as crazy as it’s ever been, making it’s way into the high-30s only to fall rapidly into the low twenties and the skies open up. Last week we had 44 degrees, today the forecast maximum is 21 but by Sunday it will be back …
It has been suggested to me that writing about food and restaurants is something I could do more of. Or any of, really! So I decided I would create a somewhat regular blog called ‘Tasting X’ talking about different places I have eaten apropos to some sort of review, I guess. I’m going to look …
Hi folks. Last year I got back from Sri Lanka and India and popped my clothes in the wash. I patted my trousers, I was SURE there was nothing inside. There was. My passport! A new one is now on its way. What makes it all the more embarrassing is this. It's not the first …
Ahh it’s so close to Christmas and the end of the year it must be time to do a few ‘2018 in review’ style posts, right? Today I want to reflect on some of the awesome accommodation I’ve been privileged to stay in this year. I’ve had three getaways or trips this year, a very …
Hi all. Yes, another itinerary for you, to one of my absolute favourite countries in the world. In mental preparation for writing about the UK, I realised that despite four trips to the UK thus far, I really have sold myself short on the UK because there are loads of places I have not yet …
Hi all. Something new today – I wanted to talk about countries I’ve been to which I think were highly worthwhile, yet they don’t receive the number of visitors they should, or they get a lot but the place seems to have a bit of a bad rap. Or both. Please take the chance to …
A couple of weeks back, my wife I were holidaying in Queensland. I might have previously mentioned. It included 3 nights in Noosa Heads and one night in Brisbane. It was an interesting city to return as I’ve only been once I think, and that was in 1988 to ‘Expo ‘88’. That time I was …
Howdy all on this Sunday. I was a bit surprised to realise that I haven’t done an ‘Itineraries’ on Japan, so I that’s what I’ve settled on this week. Japan is a country which has so much to offer the visitor, and with shinkansens taking you the length of the country at 200 kmph plus, …
