I’m not a very good tourist – I have a habit of missing lots of classic tourist spots, even after multiple visits to a place. I’m far more interested in spending time with people who live there – whether locals or as expats. I like getting a feel for “real life”. I like soaking up the atmosphere of a place. In ten years living overseas I’ve seen a lot of places around China and South East Asia. Follow the links below to lists of posts I’ve written telling stories of my travels, impressions of different places – and a few photos, too! I also added a section on USA travel following my recent trip around the US.
