My Travels

I’ve always liked travelling, but in the past 10 years I have been lucky enough to visit some wonderful places, most of them with ancient histories. My favourites have been Russia, Iran, Turkey and the ‘5 Stans’ - Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. But not forgetting Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, Ecuador, Mexico, Greece, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Albania and India!

The galleries below show some of the highlights.
