Darwin to Alice

AUSTRALIA | Monday, 11 May 2009 | Views [372]

Darwin has a sad history of being virtually destroyed by Japanese bombers during WWII and by Cyclone Tracey in 1974 which ran up to some 200 + kph! Most people use it as a jumping point to go to the nearby National Parks! It was great meeting up with ... Read more >

Bali and the Gilli islands, indonesia

INDONESIA | Friday, 1 May 2009 | Views [652]

I wasnt that impressed with Bali but that said i didnt really see much of it. I didnt really stick around in the capital Depensar for long and the only beach i went to (sanur) was a big disappointment. Ubud (the centre of Balinese culture is a nice ... Read more >

Borobudur, Java

UNITED KINGDOM | Tuesday, 21 Apr 2009 | Views [353]

Well i didnt think that anything could rival Angkor Wat but Borobudar is a definate contender. A 5am start meant that i got there as the sun was rising and the crowds were still in bed (thankfully). En route i saw my first live smoking magical volacanoe.... Read more >

Sumatra, Indonesia

INDONESIA | Monday, 20 Apr 2009 | Views [505]

Keen to get away from the trouble in Thailand, arrived in Medan (capital of Sumatra) on 14th April via KL pretty late at night. Was tired and should really have booked accomodation in advance and arranged an airport pick up to avoid the usual taxi drivers/touts ... Read more >

Songkran (thai new year) festival, Chang Mai

THAILAND | Tuesday, 14 Apr 2009 | Views [408]

The thais certainly know how to see the new year in. Chang mai is apparently THE place to be for what is basically a big massive street waterfight lasting 3/4 days.  A lot of people come up fromm Bangkok as thais go back to their parents homes to celebrate ... Read more >

Cool climate, stunning sunsets, awesome food and great company (I met a lovely german girl i ended up hanging out with) - that just about sums up Mt Abu. More a honeymoon destination, i nearly didnt go but i am glad i did the windy and hair raising ... Read more >


Jaipur, Rajastan

UNITED KINGDOM | Sunday, 22 Mar 2009 | Views [317]

After a 7 and a half hour train journey which should have taken 5 and a half hours i arrived in Jaipur - the so called pink city. I met another female traveller and we headed out to see some sites. Jaipur is a big city and as we headed out to Amber ... Read more >


Agra - just needs an N before the A

UNITED KINGDOM | Sunday, 22 Mar 2009 | Views [256]

If you believed everything you read in your guide book you wouldnt go to Agra. Its quite manic and tourists (especially the white skinned ones) get hassled so much by vendors, rickshaw walas and tuc tuc drivers to use their services that i can see what ... Read more >


Punjab, India

UNITED KINGDOM | Sunday, 22 Mar 2009 | Views [390]

Loads of family have said in the past that India had changed over the last 14 or so years since i was here last but am not sure i saw much evidence of that. The 8 hour road trip from dehli to punjab along the Great Trunk Road is just as hellish as ever, ... Read more >
