I had one week in Kathmandu before heading out to Gumda. Life in Papa's House follows a daily routine that's easy enough to slip into or opt out of. I had three meals a day - almost always daahl baat and vegetables - with the everyone else living in ... Read more >

SINGAPORE | Thursday, 7 Feb 2008 | Views [900]
The flight from Brisbane to Singapore was about seven hours and, as Singapore is two hours behind, I arrived at something past five in the morning. I was on a 'stopover deal', which basically means cheap hotel, free airport transfers and vouchers for cheap/free ... Read more >

The day I left Airlie Beach was almost entirely given over to travelling. I usually try and get night buses so I can sleep through the long distances but it wasn't really possible this time. It wasn't so bad though, as the views out the window were interesting ... Read more >

I don't have a great deal to report, as last week most mostly given over to exploring in a similar way to previous weeks. I did make it out to Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, which was quite good fun. Some of the birds of prey were put through their paces ... Read more >

I am always surprised when I come to write in this journal that it's been so long since the last update. More proof, if any were needed, that time really does fly when you're having fun. I've been in Brisbane for nearly two weeks now. I was somewhat ... Read more >

Two weeks, wow. Well, in that time I have thrown no shrimps on the barbie (the only barbeque I've attended only had hotdogs) and have stoned no crows (not sure there are any crows here anyway). However, I can vouch for the good days and no worries, and ... Read more >

POLAND | Thursday, 2 Aug 2007 | Views [849] | Comments [8]
Next stop: Warsaw. Thankfully, the weather broke on the first day so the temperatures returned to a bearable level. I was practically dancing in the streets when it started raining. I had a (slightly soggy) chocolate icecream in celebration. Warsaw ... Read more >

Just for once, the train trip to Krakow went by with no ticket issues. WIN! I headed over there with a few folk from the hostel who were all heading on to Krakow and all staying in the Stanger hostel too, on the basis that the Stranger in Wroclaw ... Read more >

Wroclaw is an attractive, small city. And there's one thing you have to do if you go: see the Raclawie Panorama. Google it and you can find out the details, but basically it's a huge canvas that creates a 360 degree scene of the Polish victory over the ... Read more >

Coming back to Prague was definately the best decision. When I got to my hostel, I made some tea and got chatting to people in the kitchen. The other hostel (Miss Sophie's) had been dead, but this one actually had friendly people. I decided there was ... Read more >

Well I've finally done it, I've finally left the country. And first stop: Prague. I found the hostel (Miss Sophie's) with no real difficulty. It's more mid-range than budget, but it was my first night and given that it's in the Czech Republic, it's ... Read more >

So, last Friday I had my 'practice' adventure to Northern Ireland with my intrepid flatmates, Em and Hannah. The first thing you notice about Ireland is how green it is. It's not a stereotype -- it is actually even greener than England. Belfast itself ... Read more >
