Enter The Forbidden City

 

Freezing at dawn, we arrived right into the pulsing heart of Peking.

Chairman Mao still looks over beijing

Bicycles flow silently beneath the silent gaze of chairman Mao, like shoals of fish; an intense volume shifting effortlessly, through an even greater mass.

It was not our intention to spend Christmas on the Great Wall, but I needed a new passport after everything was stolen in Guangzhou.

Nomadic Gatherings - Travels in Asia and Australia

Travel on trains and buses in Asia, then jump into cars with complete strangers in Australia and New Zealand as Michel introduces you to a collection of characters that bring Nomadic Gatherings to life.

If you can't afford to buy a copy of Nomadic Gatherings, the chapters are slowly being made available online - for free.

You may even decide that it really is worth having a hard copy in your hands; a useful read for those long bus journeys being written about, and for endless waits at ferry ports.
