One thing I remember strongly from my time in the amazing village of Jikanjuri in Georgia, 2011, was this power relay box where the entire village's power came through. It, not surprisingly perhaps, would 'blow' regularly and the whole town would be without electricty. The worst example was in November 2011 when it was freezing, …
Howdy all. Sorry again for a week-long absence from the old blog but I’ve spent all my limited free time in the last week video editing and rendering files and frankly, whew! But the bulk of what I had to do is done now. Before I go even for what is a shortish trip (for …
I read a blog earlier this week talking about places that weren’t well known but really worth visiting, and Lyon was amongst them. Which sort of surprised me because I thought it was well-known. I loved Lyon. It’s really a glorious city and despite being there in 40 degree heat during August 2011. I can’t …
One of the most amazing cities in Iran, Yazd features mud-brick buildings aplenty and is a wonderful place to explore.
Hi everyone! In the new year I am searching for some new ideas for posts, and this is one I’ve come up with ‘Value Destinations’ – that’s places that I reckon represent a decent bang for your buck. Some places can be quite frustrating because money disappears at a rate if knots, your accommodation is …
Hello folks and the happiest of New Year’s to you once again. As 2015 slowly whirrs into gear and I look with horror at all the shifts I am to do this week, once we clicked over to 2015 I suddenly realised that I am going travelling again! Yes, six weeks away! I have been …
First things first - Happy New Year! I am six weeks away from jetting off to Thailand and Myanmar so pretty excited about that! Hope that wherever you are you had a great New Year. Here in Melbourne we're getting some serious heat, it's about 38 degrees right now and we're heading for 41 …
So. If you’re in Europe and want to go somewhere that doesn’t quite see the tourists that the big cities of Paris, Rome, Prague etc see, let me suggest one to you – Luxembourg. One of the smaller countries in Europe, Luxembourg and its main city, Luxembourg, are both charming spots to visit and although …
I thought I’d take a few moments to do a Christmas post. Merry Christmas and all the trimmings wherever you are and whatever you’re doing this year. Well, unless you don’t celebrate Christmas. Then I am just sending you warm fuzzy happy feelings at this time of the year. My interestingly-titled (hopefully) post is about …
If you thought I took too few pictures when I was in the London and UK, then you’ll be even more dismayed at my time in Ireland. Two lousy photos is all I took! And a third was taken for me at the Guinness Factory that I didn’t make it too because I was hung …
