Folks! The incredible Old Town of the city of Jeddah, on the Red Sea in Saudi Arabia. Take a detailed look and walk through the street of Al Balad and check out the shops, mosques, historic houses and meet perhaps my first ever Saudi subscribers! Not to mention the cats of Al-Balad! Enjoy! https://youtu.be/lxzeqNa2RtU Thanks …
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. Well - the last country on my Dhaka to Dakar quest was Senegal, and luckily for this one I kept a few notes and a couple of coins for you to check out below. The CFA - exactly what the letters stand for appears to be up for debate but the best approximation …

Howdy all. It’s been a few weeks now since Eurovision 2024 in Malmo, Sweden. I was travelling at the time and consumed a lot more social media commentary on this year’s contest than I normally do before even seeing the contest. As it stands I’ve seen the first semi-final and the final, I haven’t seen …
Folks - Hop on Board Scoot, the budget Singaporean carrier as I fly in their pseudo-Business Class known as 'ScootPLUS' from Singapore to Melbourne on this 7 and a half hour flight. First we deal with a 3 hour delay at Singapore's Changi Airport where they hand out muffins, but finally we do take off …

One of the most popular things to do on Malaysia's Island of Langkawi - Perhaps THE most popular thing to do - is to take a 'Mangrove tour' by boat. In this tour you'll encounter a fish farm, monkeys, a bat cave, eagles and more - so what is it like and is it worth …

Today the vlog features some of Langkawi Malaysia's TOP tourist sights. After somehow not dying climbing up to the top of the Seven Wells Waterfall known as Telaga Tujuh, and a few encounters with monkeys, I try out an extreme gondola ride called the 'Skycab' which boasts the world's STEEPEST INCLINE at 41 degrees. That …
