West Bay, England It was my sister's idea to go here. She had seen the TV series Broadchurch and wanted to see the beach and cliffs where the body was found. So we planned a convoluted route that would take us to Cornwall via West Bay (I'll make a small point here that these two… Continue reading Travel A to Z – W

Travel A to Z – V
I'm nearly at the end of my alphabetic tour through travel memories and I'm glad, although I have also enjoyed travelling back in my mind and reliving good - and sometimes not so good - moments. Venice, Italy Venice is beautiful, to visit is like walking into a painting. You've seen it in movies and… Continue reading Travel A to Z – V
Travel A to Z – O
It won't be sometime until May until the restrictions on movement are lifted and it's possible to go somewhere without an essential requirement. So while I can only physically travel around my neighbourhood, this month I've been travelling much further in my mind and back in time. Oludeniz, Turkey: We are not ones for package… Continue reading Travel A to Z – O

Travel is currently a state of mind rather than a reality. I am spending this month travelling back in time and place in alphabetical order. And today we reach the halfway point of the alphabet. M was a tough choice - there are lots of places starting with M! But which one to choose? Munich,… Continue reading Travel A to Z – M

Luxor, Egypt: In the grand history of my travel, one place stands out as the champion city of hassle, and that is Luxor. From the moment we got off the bus it started. There was a man ready and waiting to tell us out hotel was closed, that we should come to his hotel instead.… Continue reading Travel A to Z – L

Kruger National Park, South Africa: There are many national parks in many countries, but Kruger is one of the largest game preserves in Africa. It's famous, and deservedly so, and a highlight of my travelling life. I would happily go back there for a week or two. Several times. For as long as my budget… Continue reading Travel A to Z – K

I'm travelling in my mind this month, back through time, recalling places been, and thinking about places yet to be seen. Jaisalmer, India: From Delhi, take an overnight train for 17 hours and wake up in Jaisalmer, a city close to the Pakistan border. Known as the Golden City, it's a fort city on the… Continue reading Travel A to Z – J
Travel A-to-Z – I
I'm taking some time this month to travel back in time and reflect on some of the wonderful (and less wonderful) places I've been able to visit, and to think about places I will visit in the future when travel is possible again. Iguazu Falls, Brazil/Argentina: Possibly the biggest waterfall in the world. If you… Continue reading Travel A-to-Z – I
Travel A to Z – G
No new trips are in sight just yet, so I'm spending the month of March reminiscing about trips from the past, and dreaming a little bit about travel in the future. Granada, Spain: You might think I'm going to talk about the Alhambra, and perhaps I should, but my memories of Granada are less of… Continue reading Travel A to Z – G
