Today's travel photo is of Wat Rong Khun (The White Temple) in Chiang Rai, Thailand. This is a modern temple, built in the late 90's, but it is unlike any that I have seen in Thailand. The fact that it is completely white is only the start. Its somewhat unconventional artwork is what really makes [...]
Today's travel photo is of a herd of wildebeest in front of a huge flock of flamingos on a lake in Ngorongoro Crater, Tanzania. I was amazed by the huge herds of animals that live in Ngorongoro. Unlike other parks in Tanzania, there is water here all year round, so the animals never need to [...]
Today's travel photo is of the inside of the Central Post Office in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam. The Central Post Office is a beautiful late 19th century French Colonial building, designed by Gustave Eiffel himself. It's located opposite the Notre Dame Cathedral, so you can easily visit both of these interesting sites at [...]
Today's travel photo is of a rural road scene in the country outside of Vang Vieng in Laos. I took this photo while taking a bicycle ride to Poukham Cave and the Blue Lagoon. It was rice planting season at the time of year that I visited, so most of the rice fields had either [...]
Today's travel photo is of a very crowded Tuk Tuk in Battambang, Cambodia. I took this photo while exploring the streets of the city to view its interesting old French Colonial Buildings. This Tuk Tuk went past me and was crowded with about twelve people piled into it, mostly school kids all laughing and chatting [...]
Today's travel photo is of a path through a pine tree plantation in Western Victoria, Australia. On our way to the South Australian border, we drove past miles and miles of pine plantations, and we stopped here for a sandwich and a cuppa. This area had been struck by some bad bush fires the month [...]
Today's travel photo is a panorama of Wat Xieng Thong in Luang Prabang, Laos. I was so happy to be able to return to Luang Prabang recently, and it was even better this time because I got to take my wife with me. This gave me a great excuse to revisit some of the amazing [...]
Today's travel photo is of some Dragon Fruit growing at an orchard in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam. A lot of people come to Southeast Asia and have no idea what this fruit is, and I was the same when I first came to the region a couple of years ago. Dragon Fruit certainly looks a [...]
Today's travel photo is of some locals fishing on the Mekong River at sunset in Kratie, Cambodia. The town of Kratie was one of my favourite places in Cambodia, and it was a great way to end our stay in the country before we made our way into Laos. The main draw to the town [...]
Today's travel photo is of a beautiful starry night on the Nullarbor in Western Australia. I took this photo at our camping spot in a rest area near the end of our huge journey across the Nullarbor. The vehicle in this photo belongs to some other travellers who had just pulled up to camp for [...]
