http://www.ggtravelblog.com/p/hoi-an.html
To Travel is to Live. Friday, Nov 28th (continued). We arrived in Hoi An just before 2:00 pm and checked into the beautiful Anantara hotel. After a small late lunch overlooking the wide delta of the Thu Bon River in front of the hotel, we were picked up again by our guide Phoac for an afternoon walk through the old town of Hoi An. The architecture thus has Chinese, Japanese, Taiwanese, French, Portuguese as well as Cham and Vietnamese influences. The city was awarded World Heritage status. We also walked...

To Travel is to Live: Krakatoa
http://www.ggtravelblog.com/p/krakatoa.html
To Travel is to Live. Saturday, June 29th. The Island of Krakatoa lies in the Sunda Straight between Java and Sumatra. It has probably been the most famous volcano in the world, ever since its cataclysmic eruption in 1883. It took our driver a while to find the little harbor, where the boats leave from. But once we got there it all became quite easy. We were able to book a small boat with a guide straight away, and it took about 45 min for them to organize the boat, get us lunch, and we were off. The exp...

To Travel is to Live. January 23rd - 25th 2015:. I was very lucky with the weather, as it was a fairly cool day.

Back in Bright after 125km, still smiling. Off to Mount Buffalo. Finished and no longer capable of smiling. Proof that I it did it (albeit 11 hours after I started). Mount Hotham Ski Resort. Falls Creek Ski Resort:. View of Mounty Bea...
