Auckland’s volcanoes
Auckland, I have learnt, is a city built on no less than fifty volcanoes, not all of which are dormant. This means two things. One, that I could get blown into tiny lava covered pieces of myself at any moment, and two, that there is some excellent hilly walking to be done. We set off, […]
Shanghai for a day
Our trip to New Zealand is a bit of a mammoth venture, going via both Shanghai and Sydney, with fairly lengthy stopovers in both. Since we were in Shanghai for 13 hours, it seemed to make sense to pop into town and take a look around. The trip from the airport into Shanghai was a […]
Berlin – the rest of the story
Berlin, you will not be surprised to hear, is about more than just amazing street art. So whilst the street art was certainly a highlight of my trip, it wasn’t the whole thing. Here therefore is the tale of the rest of my time in this fascinating city. Berlin is a great city for exploring. […]
An alternative tour of Berlin

Photo theme – Waterfalls
I always find flowing water to be mesmerising, be it in the form of waves, rivers, or as the case with the photos here, falling over edges. The power of a waterfall can hold my attention for an age, watching the water tumble endlessly onto the ground below. These shots show some of the waterfalls […]
