Over the past few years I’ve been lucky enough to travel around quite a number of places in East Asia and a few other places besides. Along the way I’ve recorded my adventures in both words, pictures and videos including a few travel tips so for what it’s worth I decided to index them here in case it’s of any help to anyone else (for my most recent adventures check out the blog) –
