...imagine visiting 30 countries over 500 days of travel producing fantastic stories and over 30,000 unique pictures...
I started this blog in January 2004 and since then, I have visited over 30 Counties producing a diary and photoblog along the way. I have archived these stories and pictures for your (my) pleasure. I have grouped them in three sections. They are the Main Full archives , the Country by Country Highlights and from over 23,000 pictures taken by me since February 2003. The best pictures (in my opinion) are currently in the Gallery but I am starting to move the majority of my best pictures (some you can see above in the Flickr badge) to my FLICKR account. They are chosen with care from my travels from Brazil to Argentina to Chile, Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru. From New Zealand to Australia to Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam to China and Poland, Hungary, Ukraine, Romania to Ireland. From Tango in Buenos Aires, from the Inca Trail to Bangkok and Angkor Wat.
So take a minute to enjoy. Visit either the main archives, the Country by Country the hightlights, to finally from over 30,000 pictures taken by me over the year, the best pictures.
