March 16, 2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those of you that have chosen to come on this journey with me, you will agree that this was a very varied trip. We travelled by car, bus, articulated electric streetcar, metro, vintage tram, 4×4, regular train, high speed train, e-bike, tuk tuk, ferry, and of course, many many kilometres on foot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We ate all sorts of things, many we have never seen or heard of before. We have learned so much from so many people. Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful when we needed it. My mind has been opened in so many ways by my time there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And, as always, I know that there is so much more to see, and that I have barely scratched the surface of this beautiful country. I hope that I get a chance to go back one day and continue exploring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are a few photos that didn’t fit in my earlier posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
