  • KUALA LUMPUR – MALAYSIA

    19/3/24 – 20/3/24 104 days since getting back from Seoul, and I’m off again – this time travelling through a strange mix of countries and cities, all joined by their ancient history.

    3/12/23 – 5/12/23 I’d been completely unable to contact UBus in order to schedule a shuttle bus to pick me up to take me back to the airport, and so I settled on taking a taxi. That, however, required me to find an ATM so that I could get more cash out. Unfortunately, I’d packed…

  • BUKHARA – UZBEKISTAN (#2)

    21/11/23 – 24/11/23 After a hefty breakfast, I headed out to meet with my friend Sabrina and her sister, Parvina. We met up at a coffee shop not far from the old town, and had a lovely time catching up. Sabrina headed off to university, but Parvina and I had something else planned for her…
