Today’s Sunday Spotlight is shone at the adorable city of Irkutsk, in Siberia, Russia, not too far from the beautiful Lake Baikal – the world’s biggest inland lake. On the train heading to Irkutsk from Ulaan Baatar I was chatting with several people, including one guy who reckoned that Irkutsk was one of the least …
Howdy all. I’ve been meaning to outline the places and route I took earlier this year when on the 3rd of May I left Beijing for to take the train across three countries – China, Mongolia and Russia – to far flung Moscow. Wait – is it Beijing that is far flung? I flew into …
The Slovenian capital is a rare gem. Not far from the Mediterranean, part of the old Yugoslavia, vibrant, full of energy and music, green and not nearly as well visited as many cities in Europe, it’s really the perfect city to visit to get away from the tourist trail in Europe and yet still be …
Laos is a wonderful, wonderful country to visit for the traveller. Really, it’s hard not to fall in love with the place. It’s often bundled in with other South East Asian countries, in fact I think it’s fair to say I didn’t meet any traveller when I was there who was JUST going to Laos. …
Today's sunsets come from the village I stayed at in Georgia, Jikhanjuri. Thanks for stopping by! May the Journey Never End!

So I thought I’d address that. Starting today with my itinerary through Slovenia. I should point out from the very start that …
One of the most pleasant town’s in Sri Lanka is without a doubt Kandy. Up in the hills, it’s a great base for exploring the region and it also has plenty to see in town as well. There are plenty of great eateries and accommodation. But for Buddhists across Sri Lanka, the highlight must be …

Here it is, the big Russian Rumble! I would have done it earlier but I felt I wanted the chance to really explore Moscow before I did. But thanks to my last trip I have now been to both cities twice and I'm ready to pit them against each other to see which one comes …
