Welcome to Mt Kailash, Asia’s holiest mountain, in western Tibet. For centuries it has been an important pilgrimage site for Hindus, Buddhists, and members of the Bon and Jain faiths. At 6,638m, it has never been summited. #himalayas #tibet #mtkailash

2019 was the least planned and most fulfilling for travel, with some really eye-opening experiences, many of which fill my Top 9 on Instagram. 6 of these were from #Iraq but it’s a very worrying year ahead now for that entire region of the world sadly...

#135 Curacao -The C of the ABC's, and the coolest one of them, landing somewhere nicely between the rampant mass tourism of Aruba and the quiet haven of Bonaire. The capital of Willemstad is a real rainbow coloured beauty too! facebook.com/pg/robertmichae…
