Destination Bhutan

Destination Bhutan
Destination Bhutan

The Kingdom in the Sky, The Land of the Thunder Dragon – Bhutan has received many mystical and mythical names none of which are in vain. It is a stunning country set high up in the Himalayas with altitudes ranging from the 7,500 peaks to almost sea level in the southern border with India. Peaceful and spiritual, a journey through the crazy roads and the breathtaking landscapes is a highlight not easy to forget. Bhutan leaves a mark on one’s soul and on the world view you will have after visiting. Learn about Gross Domestic Happiness and the remoteness and isolation it has endured or enjoyed. The first tourists only arrived in the 70s and internet made its way in the early 90s. Be mesmerised.

JEWEL - Without travelers Jewel is just another sh JEWEL - Without travelers Jewel is just another shopping mall, but with an incredible design. There's something about the water and the greenery that makes it feel wet, humid and jungly.  There's nothing at the mall I'd like to buy, (I dislike malls anyway) but love checking out the place and explore the wall gardens around the central area.

So many of you asked what I was up to since I have barely posted in the last year, I have been in Singapore with borders closed and no ability to travel. After 16y as an expat and 50% of the year on the road it has been difficult to not be able to for so long. I also thought nobody really cares to see Singapore and, to be fair, I don't usually post the typical IG shots here so didn't want to just share the pictures of Singapore you probably have see a million times. But tell me:

And talking about travel dreaming...
This photo was taken at Bill Bensley @shintamani_wild at the @natgeo tent hence the many magazines, the tent was full of them some of the issues were 50+ years old, it was fascinating to read the first issues that covered Dian Fossey or some of really remote tribes. It was hard to peel my eyes off the stunning photos and enjoy the remote and beautiful destination, the piece of wild forest where the camp is.
.
I don't think I'll be doing much travel before the end of the year but I hope to travel to west Africa in November/ December / January, for a real adventure and maybe a safari too.
