It felt really good to be back in Oz. I've got great memories from when I visited Perth in my teenage years so I got very excited to finally be in eastern Australia visiting places I've dreamt about coming to for a very long time.  I flew into ... Read more >

My arrival on the south island started with blazing sunshine, a drive through the vineyards of Marlborough (stopping for a cheeky wine tasting session along the way) to Abel Tasman National Park and finished with a beautiful pink sunset by the beach ... Read more >

Time to board my next plane already!

HONG KONG | Sunday, 14 Dec 2014 | Views [341]

HONG KONG | Thursday, 11 Dec 2014 | Views [345]

I'm pleased to report my trip has got off to a good start (and long may it continue!)... The inaugural direct flight from Manchester to Hong Kong I borded was something in itself to behold - check in desk greeting from a dragon dancing to Chinese techno ... Read more >
