When Amy and I visited Hawaii we discovered that, even on an island, surf is never guaranteed.
On a rocky stretch of coastline on Hawaii’s Big Island a group of marine biologists are studying the lifecycle of the octopus - a creature that lives fast and dies young.
In the closing act of Blade Runner it’s a game of chess that allows the replicant Roy Batty to finally meet his maker.
I knew it was going to be bad. I'd read all the one and two star reviews and looked at the pictures of weird murals and overgrown gardens but I kept circling back to the listing every time I looked for accommodation on Kauai.
I knew that Hawaii was part of America but I still didn't expect it to be so American.
On a cold day in December in 1964 three helicopters belonging to the Royal Dutch Navy set out across the north sea towards a tiny speck in the ocean about ten kilometers west of Noordwijk on the Dutch coast.
Tasmania's southern coastline is one of the most wild and remote parts of Australia
Photos by Asmaa Waguih and Joey Lawrence of Kurdish fighters provide a face for a revolution that is quietly taking place behind the front lines of the war with ISIS.
The Tongariro Alpine Crossing on New Zealand's north island has a reputation as one of the most dangerous hikes in the country. On a good day it's a hard slog across 20km of rock and scree taking you up onto the desolate but spectacular plateau that forms the base of Mt Ngauruhoe.
Despite the spectacular views on offer around Mt Howitt it's clear from the map that early European explorers had a rough time surveying the region.
Our first day on the bikes took us up the west coast from Negombo to Puttallam. It was a busy stretch of road and we were still a few days away from getting comfortable with the traffic so progress was slow.
In a lagoon north of Mullaitivu is a gold-painted 'victory monument'. It presides over the area where the 'Liberation Tamil Tigers of Eelam' (LTTE) made their last stand against the Sri Lankan army in 2009.
It's hard to know when to visit Sri Lanka. December to April is officially the dry season but the weather conditions are somewhat complex with various monsoon seasons affecting different parts of the island at different times.
You can find a lot of dead sea creatures at Tsukiji Fish Market but you wont find much whale meat.
Right in the center of the biggest city in the world an experiment in agriculture is being conducted.
Earlier this year I tagged along with the Australian/International off-pissed ski team to the slopes of Myokokogen. Matt chose Myoko because the guidebook gave it four and half snowflakes out of five in the 'powder' category. Also because our plan called for us to go from there to Kyoto and then onto Tokyo and we wanted to make sure our itinerary doubled as a tongue twister.
The old capital of Kyoto is home to about 1600 temples and countless smaller shrines.
The National Library of China holds an artifact that represents what must be the most ambitious attempt to control information in history.
