Destinations

Thailand’s Similan Islands are located in the Andaman Sea, just a few hours by boat off the coast of Phuket…

Bhutan is an enchanting Himalayan Buddhist kingdom. The fabled Tiger’s Nest is the jewel of the nation, beckoning both intrepid hikers and photographers alike.

With tropical islands galore and long stretches of sandy coastlines, lapped by crystal clear waters teeming with colorful and fascinating submarine life, Asia is the ideal destination for divers.

During my visit to Kengtung, Myanmar, which is located not far from the Golden Triangle – close to Laos, Thailand and China – I discovered true diversity for its own sake, free of any other agenda, political or otherwise.

Myanmar is a place of often understated beauty and one of the least known parts of the country is the Mergui Archipelago. It is one of the least visited places in all of Myanmar.

What is it about Japan that so thrills us with almost uninhibited enthusiasm? What is the grand secret the Japanese are able to conjure almost at will in their quest to be exquisitely precise in all they do?

Despite its reputation as a bustling, modern city, South Korea’s Seoul is also quite rich with history, so there is wonderful contrast between Old Korea and New Korea. It was this juxtaposition that drew me in.

To truly appreciate this most famous of Mongolian traditions, I recommend that you seek out a rural Naadam as well as observe the well-known Ulaanbaatar Naadam of the Country, just as I did in my recent trip to Mongolia.

One of the most remarkable things about flying privately through Mongolia is that the whole country becomes available to you, and roads, airports, and accommodations are no longer considerations of your visit.

Golden Rock, which is known locally as Kyaiktiyo Pagoda, is located in the Mon State of Myanmar.

It is inevitable that Mongolia, a country steeped in authentic, old world tradition, will continue to evolve even further as the economy grows.

Varanasi is a shock to the senses, and is pure India at “full speed ahead” mode. It is crowded, dirty, bizarre and 100 other adjectives.
