Photography

Starting in Antigua, Guatemala and finishing in San Jose, Costa Rica, the trip also features ruins in Honduras, islands in Nicaragua, beaches in El Salvador and so much more.

If you like the jungle and you like the ocean, chances are you’ll like Belize. This Central American country might be small but it’s quite the nature-filled stunner.

Although I love words so much I literally write for a living, I’ve got to tell you something: words. just. don’t. do. it. justice.

Rainforests. Beaches. Ruins. Temples. Tea. Surf. Trains. So many reasons to visit the idyllic island nation of Sri Lanka.

As a travel photographer, I was excited about the items included on a tour through Indonesia: smoking volcanoes, cycling, and sacred temples in a landscape sewn together like a patchwork quilt.

Less well-known but no less magnificent than neighbours such as Vietnam and Thailand, Cambodia is a gem of a Southeast Asian nation. And one that should be on your list.

Your life will quite possibly be incomplete if you don’t take in Florence’s awe-inspiring views, Venice’s dreamy waterways, Cinque Terre’s colourful villages, and Rome’s majestic sites.

When it comes to talking about beautiful, vast landscapes, it’s much easier to show you than tell you.

It took 24 hours, a few Turkish meals, and meeting the first of many welcoming locals before I started to feel okay.
