Chechnya 2015

RUSSIAN FEDERATION | Tuesday, 7 Apr 2015 | Views [351]

This was my favourite Russian Caucus. It took a while to get here as I started in Sochi and headed east towards Cherkessia and Kabardino Balkaria until we reached North and South Ossetia. I was collected by my guide/couch surfer in Vladikavkaz in North ... Read more >

Abkhazia 2015

RUSSIAN FEDERATION | Tuesday, 31 Mar 2015 | Views [231]

Abkhazia is a disputed territory and a partially recognised state by the Russians and is also funded by them. This is obviously to show Georgia to stay away. The Georgians tried to occupy Abkhazia and after a bloody battle they failed. They insist they ... Read more >

Rhodes 2015

GREECE | Saturday, 14 Feb 2015 | Views [230]

Who goes to a Greek island in February? I do. Why? Because their season is actually closed which means no tourists around and this is just the way I like it. I had the whole island to myself along with the locals. There were no queues for tickets. No ... Read more >


Going Back to Cambodia After 15 Years

CAMBODIA | Wednesday, 24 Dec 2014 | Views [402]

This was my second trip to Cambodia. The first was 15 years ago when it wasn't the most popular place to visit. How I wished I was back in time on this trip. I arrived in Siem Reap excited to see the beautiful temples again but was not prepared for ... Read more >

Varanasi Pilgrimage Oct 2014

INDIA | Friday, 24 Oct 2014 | Views [293]

I have been to India many times and I still don't like it. I wonder why I keep going. It's because there are hidden gems to be found when I look closer. Varanasi is one of those gems. Millions of Hindus find their way to Varanasi to seek enlightenment, ... Read more >

UNITED KINGDOM | Friday, 17 Oct 2014 | Views [198]

I picked the perfect weekend to climb Snowdon or so I thought. We drove up Friday night and arrived in Snowdonia at 5am and decided to park up and sleep. We didn’t get much sleep as the rain was heavy and the wind was howling. At least by 8am it ... Read more >

Burundi - Heart of Africa Aug 2014

BURUNDI | Sunday, 3 Aug 2014 | Views [289]

It’s been awhile since I visited a poor country. Most people always associate any country in Africa as being a poor country. Don’t get me wrong by western standards they are but I always compare African countries with other countries on the ... Read more >
