When I crossed the border into Cambodia from Vietnam, I applied for my visa on arrival. When I got my passport back, I opened it up to check my visa to make sure that the dates were correct, as I always do. When I found the page, I instantly saw the words "Kingdom of Cambodia" [...]
Today's travel photo is of the sun rising over Lake Liddell in New South Wales, Australia. During our campervan trip across Australia, we stayed in a lot of absolutely beautiful camping spots, and Lake Liddell was one of them. On this particular morning, Veronika had awoken very early and quickly woke me up to tell [...]
Today's travel photo is of some old shopfronts in Savannakhet, Laos. We only really stopped in Savannakhet to break up the long journey from Si Phan Don to Vientiane, but I am really glad that we did. This sleepy little city on the Mekong River is full of beautiful old buildings, and it is a [...]
Today's travel photo is an old one of a beautiful mosaic tiled floor inside Musei Vaticani (Vatican Museums) in the Vatican City. The Vatican is an absolute must see if you travel to Rome, but don't just visit St Peter's Basilica. Take the time to visit the Vatican Museums on your way to the Sistine [...]
After the terrible first day of our tour of the Mekong Delta in Vietnam, we awoke in the morning to find that we were dreading another day of the same thing. We were up early in Can Tho to visit the Cai Rang Floating Market, one of the best in the Mekong Delta. This was [...]

Today's travel photo is a panorama of Surfer's Point at Margaret River, Western Australia. Margaret River is a beautiful place to visit in the Southwest, and is one of Australia's premier surf destinations. The surf break at Surfer's Point in Prevelly gets some pretty big waves that break on the reef below, so if you're [...]
Today's travel photo is of the very quiet main road on Don Khone in Si Phan Don (Four Thousand Islands), Laos. Compared to nearby Don Det, which is popular with young backpackers and often called the "party island", Don Khone is very quiet and peaceful. I took this photo while walking back to our bungalow [...]
Today's travel photo is of a man selling drinks and coconuts from his boat at the Cai Rang Floating Market in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam. Located in the city of Can Tho, Cai Rang is a busy market where farmers from all along the Mekong Delta and even Cambodia all gather to sell their produce [...]
