From the other side of the Yamuna River, I get my first glimpse of the Taj Mahal. It’s one of the most well-known sights in the world. Its buildings are silhouetted by the hazy light, which, apparently, is normal for this time of year. The river ... Read more >

I walk down to the Tagus. It’s as wide as the River Mersey is here near the mouth. I pass the large gothic facade of the Jerónimos Monestry in the centre of Belém. Riverside are the Torre de Belém (Belem Tower) and the Padrã... Read more >

CAPE VERDE | Friday, 2 Mar 2018 | Views [446]
Cape Verde has ten islands in all, nine of which are populated, and each with very different characteristics. I could easily island hop; Fogo with its volcano and wine is next door, but regrettably I have arrived too late for major plans but at least ... Read more >

I leave Ho early and continue north. Once out of the town the people of the small villages, mainly young women, walk along the road carrying large grey metal bowls on their heads. They have empty ones on the way to the water pump and full ones on the ... Read more >
