War and Peace in Ukraine. Is Kiev Safe To Travel To? This was a question I pondered furiously over in Moldova when deciding where in Eastern Europe I should travel to next, is Kieva safe to travel to? I could go back to Romania, but that was the way I’d just...

I hit the road in Bali, on nothing but a 125cc motorcycle and armed only with a mask and snorkel and some questionable driving skills. Indonesia’s most popular island is a magnet for tourists and travellers, and some would say it’s over run, that the...
