Busuanga Island and Coron Town

Coron also refers to Coron town on neighbouring Busuanga Island where the airport and most accommodation is located, as well as daytime boat trips that are the only way to visit the tribe-protected Coron island itself. Coron is best known for world-class WWII-era wreck diving, though the area also offers limestone karst landscapes, crystal-clear freshwater lakes and shallow-water coral […]

Cadiz • Spain

Cadiz is a small and charming town hosts an annual Carnival, the best in Spain, or so say the locals. I only spent a day or two here but I left Cadiz charmed by its colourful coastal homes. Known as the oldest continually inhabited city in western Europe. In fact, Cadiz is an island separated by […]

Catania • Italy

Located on the east coast of the island of Sicily, at the foot of the active volcano Mount Etna. Baroque buildings and churches, volcanic rock beaches, markets and streets littered and marked by graffiti. First impressions of Catania and nearby areas are not very positive. On arrival, I witnessed an attempted bag snatching and the […]

A wedge-shaped mountainous island, dominated by steep cliffs and rock formations made of limestone of Jurassic origin.

Havana is the largest city in Cuba and the country’s capital with Santiago de Cuba as the second-largest city. In 1492, Christopher Columbus landed on and claimed the island […]

Dubai – Uninspired and unimpressed

Dubai – Uninspired and unimpressed, there is no culture here. No culture. No alcohol is allowed other than at hotels. Good family destination. Great climate. Unwelcome to gays. No one is equal with clear discrimination towards Asians and lower classes. A tall building not visible from 40 km away because the air is dusty and unclear. […]

Dubrovnik – Croatia

Dubrovnik is an old city on the Adriatic Sea coast in the south of Croatia, nicknamed “Pearl of the Adriatic” and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979. Dubrovnik is among the 10 best medieval walled cities in the world. The city is completely pedestrianised and easily small enough to get around […]

Dubrovnik among 10 best medieval walled cities

Dubrovnik is among the 10 best medieval walled cities in the world. The city is completely pedestrianised and easily small enough to get around on foot, with some of the streets are a little steep and many stairs to climb. Dubrovnik was heavily bombed during the Croatian War of Independence from 1991 to 1995, but almost all […]

El Chiringuito de la Mar Bella

El Chiringuito de la Mar Bella caters for the city’s large gay community and, of course, gay visitors. Its location on this part of the beach couldn’t be better, clearly targeted towards a more gay clientele, but in Barcelona sexuality is not something people consider out of the ordinary and where the mix is often […]

El Nido – Palawan

Espinho • Portual

Located on the Atlantic coastline and just south of Porto, it offers casinos and long stretches of pristine beaches. I never planned on staying or stopping here, it just happened when I was taking a train from Porto to Coimbra, and along the way found myself viewing some great coastline and ocean views which resulted […]

Faro – Portugal

The capital of the Algarve and the gateway to the sunny south coast of Portugal, Faro is a popular destination. This small city with its whitewashed houses, marina and cobblestoned streets is the gateway to the Algarve. With the remains of a Roman wall that enclose the old town and small chapels still retains its […]

Fishermen of Uppuveli

I watched and filmed the fishermen of Uppuveli work from start to end of the day, almost a week here. The abundance of sea-life they withdrew in long red nets, working fishermen and baskets filled, and the many nets that came to shore filled with sea-life alive. Uppuveli is a little coastal community consisting a golden sand […]

Fort Lauderdale • USA

Sunny South Florida. The perfect winter break for most North Americans, and with miles of beaches at your doorstep it’s a perfect way to chill out, but at night beware as the town goes all out. I spent a weekend here with Mary, Linda and Lyndon, which certainly proved to be a full-on weekend, the […]
