Beirut has such a familiar vibe to it. There’s so much of the city that feels European. And some of it reminds me of Bahrain. It’s a beautiful cross-over of the Middle East and Europe. Taken from the corniche looking inward towards the city, this […]
There’s no other place quite like Alcatraz. To listen to the stories of what wasn’t really all that long ago. It’s when I realised the stories weren’t all that long ago that I really grasped the reality of where I was. On the boat, sailing […]
Downtown Boston. The buildings, a mix of old and new. Probably the only US city I’ve visited that reminds me of London, with this mishmash of architecture. And yet despite the mishmash, everything just seems to feel like it always existed just like it is. […]

As close to paradise as I’ve ever been is where this is. Bentota, a beautiful coastal town on Sri Lanka’s south-western coast. Wide, white sand beaches. Green, blue sea. And palm trees for as far as the eyes could see. This was just one side […]
This tiny town, slowing growing month by month. There’s something new out there seemingly every day. Count the cranes and you’ll think, just how much more is to come in this small area? I wonder what it’ll look like in another 6 months.
