GILGIT-BALTISTAN – PAKISTAN
11/4/25 – 13/4/25 After a short night of sleep in Islamabad, we were up at 4am, in theory to catch the flight from Islamabad to Gilgit at 7am. Unfortunately for us, and rather unsurprisingly, the flight had been cancelled – this meant that we had to find an alternative route to Gilgit. We walked over…

ISLAMABAD – PAKISTAN
10/4/25 – 11/4/25 At 12:30pm KL time, my Pakistan International Airways flight lifted off, bound for Islamabad, the Pakistani capital.

MOSTAR – BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA
17/12/24 Whilst we had originally intended to catch the train from Sarajevo to Mostar, some awful flooding a month earlier put paid to that – we made our way instead to the bus station next door! Balkan buses are the region’s primary mode of intercity transportation – they have some quirks, however, which one has…

SARAJEVO – BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA
14/12/24 – 18/12/24 The flight from Belgrade to Sarajevo was short and painless (unlike the chaos of the return journey, which I’ll get to later!). Sarajevo Airport isn’t too far away from the city, and there are apparently two bus routes – one which is a private bus from the airport to the city, and…
