Across Australia by train
Cook is known, with typical Outback humour, as 'the Queen City of the Nullarbor.' According to a signpost outside the little village store it has a population of 4 people, 40 dingoes and 4,000,000 flies. It is fair to say that not much happens in Cook and the arrival of the Indian Pacific is still a highlight of the week. The railway has traditionally played a vital part in the taming of the Outback and a rail journey across Australia remains one of the world's epic travel experiences. Australians, accustomed to the mind-boggling distances involved in travelling their island continent, might tell you that the Outback is boring, that it's empty, that there's not much to see in what they call 'The Great Bugger-all'

What does ‘surface’ mean?
This means you will fly in and out of a different city or country. In other words you will travel between them by other means, perhaps by train, bus or boat. A round the world trip should be more about seeing things you’ll never see again, rather than rushing through airports and sitting on buses ‘just to get there’. - more

What tax - is it V.A.T?
No it is not V.A.T. The tax is airport tax, money that the airport is charging you to use its facilities. This used to be collected at the airports but is now payable in advance when you purchase your ticket. Most airport taxes are paid up front with your airfare...more

Vietnam - it's addictive

Vietnam was a detour from my original schedule. I had been heading there many times. But the only thing that is 100% certain in Asia is that the unexpected is sure to happen. The gods of travel had for one reason or another always deemed that I should head off on another tangent (usually following assignments to other areas...in some cases much less appealing). And once again I missed out on Vietnam. I have been in Thailand perhaps a dozen times and this time I was determined not to get sidetracked so from the very beginning I had scheduled Vietnam as a 3-week side-trip from my RTW route. I had heard that Saigon is an addiction. “Once you get to know it,” one old Asia hand had told me, “you will certainly fall in love with it and you won’t want to go anywhere else.”
