View Through a Flame Tree in Nha Trang, Vietnam

Today's travel photo is of a view of the sky through the branches of a flame tree in Nha Trang, Vietnam. I took this photo while exploring the ancient Cham towers of Po Nagar. This colourful flame tree provided me with some much needed shade during the heat of the middle of the day. From [...]

A Dawn Visit to Angkor Wat

I woke up in darkness to the sound of my alarm. It was 4:30am, a time of the day that I used to dread. For the past seven years I had been getting up at 4:30am to go to work. For those seven years I hated the sound of that alarm, and I hated that [...]

Rice Fields and Mountains in Vang Vieng, Laos

Today's travel photo is of some freshly planted rice fields in front of some tall limestone karst mountains near Vang Vieng in Laos. The countryside around Vang Vieng is just beautiful, and taking a bike ride down some of the quiet dirt roads is a must. When we visited Laos in July this year, the [...]

Koh Trong: A Taste of Rural Cambodia

"The boat leave...maybe twenty minute" said a random friendly local as we stared out at the muddy waters of the Mekong River in Kratie, Cambodia. I was looking down at the empty dock, wondering whether there actually was a boat or not. This friendly man went on to tell us that the ferry wasn't here [...]

Deserted Beach in Sihanoukville, Cambodia

Today's travel photo is of a deserted beach on a stormy day in Sihanoukville, Cambodia. We visited Sihanoukville for one reason - to get some quality beach time, but it absolutely bucketed down with rain for almost the entire time that we were there, so that plan went out the window. I took this photo [...]

Elephants in Lake Manyara National Park, Tanzania

I was so happy when we spotted this group of elephants during our safari in the park, as before this I had only seen one other elephant and that was at a distance. There were actually quite a few elephants [...]

Quiet Alleyway in Chiang Mai, Thailand

Today's travel photo is of a quiet alleyway in the Old City of Chiang Mai, Thailand. Something that I love about Chiang Mai is that it is a large, busy city with everything that you need, but once you turn off the main roads it feels like a small country town. I absolutely loved just [...]
