It was my
first trip to Japan and I was brimming with excitement. Japan has been high
ranking on my never ending Travel wish list so to acknowledge that it’s
actually happening was incredible.
For the
average traveller the gateway into Japan is through Tokyo on the mainland...
It was my first trip to Japan and I decided to embrace every second of it. I will admit I was a tad bit disappointed with not being able to visit Tokyo or Kyoto but it turns out that the best food in Japan is found in...
Airports can
be dull and painful specially on long lay over. All the excitement of duty free
shopping gets washed away sooner than expected and then it's just hours of
endless wait. Unless of course you're at Changi Airport in Singapore. If you're
at Changi, chances are you'll be quite happy...
It was my first ever visit to Dubai and thought that of all the hotels to pick from, I'd pick a brand I'm extremely partial to. I've had terrific experiences at Taj properties in India and thought I'd stay with a brand I'm familiar with and truth...

It's the last one in this challenge and once again it's tricky because I haven't really been to any place starting with Z but I've seen a lot of Zebras and that's the closest I can go with. I've seen Zebras in both South Africa and Kenya...

Be it Africa or India, a safari is one...
