MedEast – A Photo Exhibition of Mountains, Deserts and People, Xinjiang, China.

Steven Raidis at Raidis Estate in Coonawarra, South Australia invited me to hold an exhibition in his Cellar Door as a part of the Penola Coonawarra Arts Festival on May 6-9. I made the decision to focus on the isolated Xinjiang province of north western China.

Raidis Estate is well known regionally for exceptional wine served with traditional greek food, and MedEast will combine photography with Fassoulada soup and Mezze platters from the Mediterranean.

Do other tourists annoy you?

I’ve carefully phrased the above subject as I don’t want to pretend that I’m a) not a tourist, and b) not annoying. I am keen though to know what really gets your blood boiling when you’re on the road travelling.

2009 Tour Down Under with Lance Armstrong

One of the last jobs I completed in Australia before I moved overseas was the Tour Down Under cycling race in Adelaide. The race is starting again with a criterium in Adelaide on Sunday and I’ll be tuning into my TV in London to see what happens.

My tip for this years race is 2008 champ German Andre Greipel for the overall honours, with RadioShack working hard for Lance to win a stage. I’ve released a gallery of images from the 2009 race for you to have a look at.

Top 5 Destinations

2009 has gone and with it goes my greatest year of travel; so many people have asked for highlights, so here is my top 5 in no particular order!

Plenty of people that I’ve spoken with think that such lists are daft, that there is little point in designating an obscure spot that is …

London, England to Tokaj, Hungary

Three weeks ago I arrived in London weary and excited, and that’s where I pick up this blog from.
I envy travel writers that must make such perfect diary entries be it scrawled on a blank piece of newspaper, on a napkin at a restaurant, or neatly in their little laptop sitting on the cafe table. I just can’t keep up to be honest, between photographing, exploring, eating and just taking it in the blog has been left to sit idle. Which as it turns out is a bit slack as …
