And so it has begins. The journal for Harrys latest trip into the unknown. It should have been a relatively known trip seeing as it was my fourth visit to Thailand. Thanks to oversights born of complacency, this adventure took a more unfamiliar route.... Read more >

Friday 12 June So I’ve resorted to trimming my own fringe with a pair of nail scissors. The results are questionable, but considering the overall state of my hair in this humidity, my fringe is the least of my appearance concerns. Our 3 ... Read more >

Sawadeekaa friends :-) I'm really surprised at how much of a brain-bend it has been visiting Bangkok this week and seeing my friend from home. For starters it is understandably very different from when I was here 10 years ago. It is so much more modern ... Read more >

A while back I ditched my crappy travel
tripod and have been carrying around my much sturdier (and larger) Slik
