Really incredible photos! What a true photographer you are to carry what must be a pretty big camera and a tripod up the pagoda's steps in the dark. Well, it was worth it--your photos are spectacular--thanks for sharing them!
Maldives! This one is on the bucket list. A 45 meter deck sounds grand. I've always considered doing a live aboard but concerned about being trapped on a small boat with a small group. Sounds like you use your wait time very well.. but sounds like your dive master was very poor. For the prices you pay you should have better service. Glad you didn't miss your plane.
Awesome "peekaboo" photo! Love all the sea life and coral you got to see on your trip! Id love to see a bright coral reef like that, and a manta ray! Awesome experience in the Maldives.
I love the way you travel! Cappadocia and Pammukale are a couple of my favorite places in Turkey, and you've visited them in such style (I'm more of a self-catering backpacker)! Love the photos of the hot-air balloons, you paragliding, your gorgeous hotel in a cave and this beautiful breakfast. You feed my dreams!
I love the way you travel! Thank you for your kind remarks. I had enjoyed the trip too. I am writing another one which should be published very soon about my latest diving trip to Maldives.
Getting to know someone Indeed traveling with someone let's you see a side you may not have seen before. I've always thought people should travel together before they get married.
Cappadocia We've taken a hot air balloon ride and they did not swing down during the decent. I'm certain that would make me motion sick. I've never heard of that before. Must be something local. When you go to Africa you'll have to try it again. It is always interesting to go back to the markets you've been to before and appreciate the changes. Life moves on, some call it progress.
Cappadocia Thanks for the comments. It wasn't the hot air balloon that swung down, but it was the paragliding ride as the wind was strong; hence, to go down, the pilot had to pull the parachute down. I'd love to do more hot air balloon and my next destination will be Bagan, Myanmar.
Extraordinary To have a hot air balloon flight is one thing...to have it over Cappadocia is another...but to be among so many balloons...that is extraordinary.
Greece Your blog is doing crazy things to our heads. We've traveled to 55 countries and Greece remains one of our favorites. I may have to go back soon. This country has so much to offer....the people, the food, the beauty.
Greece Don't get me wrong, I had enjoyed my trip to Greece; it was the company that made it unexpected and unusual. As I mentioned in my story, you never know someone's character until you travel with them. Thanks for your comment.
Dive Training & Bungalow Camp Diving is really a beautiful sport. I love all the diving spots in Indonesia. You had a great diving Post. Thanks for sharing this to us.
Amazing I would like to say that i truly enjoyed reading your blog about your amazing trip! I am well traveled but i have never had the chance to step foot in Indonesia! Alchemy of Breath sounds like something that everyone has to try and what i would definitely have on my list when heading there one day! I have always believed that ride a bike in a strange and new place is the best way to enjoy what the country has to provide you with. I will definitely will be waiting to hear about your second part of travels in Indonesia be safe and enjoy
Displaying travelblog images on our website Hi,
I'm Sivaramakrishnan from FindMyCarrots and we are into travel semantics. Right now, we cater only the travellers in India. We found that users of travelblog have given very good reviews of the places they have visited along with the photos. When we show places on our website, we would like to provide a link to your blog corresponding to that place. Along with the link, we also want to show one of the pictures from the blog URL. When I tried to link the URL from our website, I got an error saying "Error 403 Hotlinking is forbidden". Is there anyway that I can show the pictures of travelblog on our website? Please let me know.
Thanks & Regards

Very well describe about the Yagon city, like it so much! I wanna visit Yangon on the end Oct, came across your blog and get to know more about Yangon, excited to go :)
Just wanna ask you, can I have the link for me to apply Myanmar visa online? As I have have read from http://www.mesingapore.org.sg/visa.html, I didn't see any link for applying visa online.
Thanks so much in advance!
Cheers!

This is a great Tibet Tour review. It is very informative and helpful. I also wish to go to Tibet to see its culture and unique Tibetan traditions. I found a website which seems to be a good and offcial site for Tibet Tour. Its URL is www.tibettour.com.
