KYOTO – JAPAN
3/10/25 – 5/10/25 Following our day out in Hiroshima, we took a shinkansen up towards Japan’s cultural capital, Kyoto – whipping past little towns and Japanese countryside at 300kph is a real experience! We checked into our accommodation for the night (a huge apartment!), before heading out to get our first taste of Kyoto. The…

HIROSHIMA – JAPAN
2/10/25 – 3/10/25 Following a lovely few days in Matsuyama, it was time to head back over the water to Honshu island, this time to visit the city of Hiroshima. We took a local train (and short bus ride) down to the port, and collected our ferry tickets. The trip across the Seto inland sea…

I flew across with Thai Airways, and despite a slight delay cutting into my already-minimal…

SAMARKAND – UZBEKISTAN (#2)
23/4/25 – 25/4/25 I arrived in Samarkand in the afternoon, on the Afrosiyob from Bukhara. After a long trip through Pakistan and Afghanistan (and the two nights I had spent in Uzbekistan so far having been rather busy), I was feeling a little exhausted – a comfortable bed and 2 nights relaxing in Samarkand awaited,…
