G'day all! Today's little vlog takes us - me and you - from Tokyo's Narita Airport into the centre of Tokyo - and beyond to Yokohama. How do we make this journey? Narita is a long way from the centre of Tokyo - around 70km. There's no question - the Narita Express, a fast train, …

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 …
Hi All! Today I continue my July of reviewing shorts from earlier this year. After Tokyo I clearly slowed down only doing three from leaving Tokyo to leaving Japan altogether.

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! Today I wanted to write a post for you on Saudi-Arabia which I visited last year as part of my journey from Dhaka to Dakar. As it is a destination that hasn’t been accessible until pretty recently I thought I would do a post about it for you letting you know some basic …
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 …
So, after every holiday there comes that time when you have to return home, to life and reality. And that came for me quicker than I would have liked certainly just over a month ago now. BUT – there was still a quick stopover to enjoy before getting back to the daily grind, and this …
