A Grand Sunset…

Posted on April 20, 2015 by noflytri in Japan, Museums, Photoblog, trains.Ever wonder what a train museum might look like if you had an insane amount of money to spend on it? It’d probably be something along the lines of the SCMAGLEV and Railway Park, in Nagoya, Japan. Make no mistake this is a far cry from the rusting hulks outside dilapidated engine sheds that I […]

Posted on March 6, 2015 by noflytri in Photoblog, Top Experiences.So today, the 6th March 2015, marks 1 year from when I boarded a Eurostar at London St Pancras and left the UK behind.

Mrauk U – off the beaten track and onto a long and winding one…
Posted on January 27, 2015 by noflytri in Burma/Myanmar, Photoblog, South East Asia.The tourist situation in Burma/Myanmar is currently a constantly changing one.
