    Comments Off on Who’s coming to the Red Centre in September?

    Let me start by saying that I can’t wait for this trip. To head away with fellow travellers to one of my favourite places sounds pretty good to me. To just take it in, and not have the pressure of producing a TV Series sounds like a dream! And that is exactly what Clint and I are doing. Quite simply, we love the NT and we are going in September. Who wants to come with us?

    Roxette, Guns ‘n’ Roses and U2 cassettes were on my hit list the last time I stepped onto the tarmac at Denpasar airport. On this occasion I was fortunate to emerge from the sanctuary of Garuda’s business class after the 6hr 20min flight with a wholly more exciting mission.

    Hoi An is a jewel in Vietnam’s crown.  With an appealing mix of Portuguese, Chinese and Japanese influences due to its heritage as a merchant trading town.  It’s picturesque, easy to navigate, a joy to explore and gives a sense of stepping back in time.  Add to that some of the best cuisine in the country and pristine beaches only 5 km away and you’ve got a great holiday spot.

    There are certain places in this world that evoke strong feelings and Halong Bay is one of these places for me. On every visit, and there have been many, this magical place brings a sense of tranquility to my soul. It’s a place where you start to relax as soon as you arrive, where you put your phone away and soak up your surroundings for there is a visual wonder right before your eyes.

    Hanoi, Vietnam’s capital and most beautiful of cities with winding tree lined streets in the old part of town, several lakes, traditional and colonial architecture and, most of all, the addictive smile and laughter of the Vietnamese people.
