Whenever anyone asks me to list my favourite place Whenever anyone asks me to list my favourite places in the world, I tell them it’s Impossible - the list is way too long. While that’s true, there are a couple of places that I know would be near the top of any list, and that includes Bamberg. This tiny German town has one of the biggest collections of historic buildings in Europe (beaten only by Venice and Prague) and a town hall built not by the river, but in it. And then there’s the beer - including a local smoked beer made to a centuries-old recipe. With so much to explore, I couldn’t resist devoting an episode of my Walk the World podcast to this little treasure.
If you thought all Middle Eastern cities were abou If you thought all Middle Eastern cities were about minarets and markets, think again. We discover Tel Aviv’s beaches, Bauhaus buildings, colourful street art and a whole lot more, in the latest episode of my Walk the World podcast (link in bio).
And it’s back! Series two of the Walk the World And it’s back! Series two of the Walk the World podcast kicks off with a virtual stroll through the streets of one of Spain’s most beautiful cities. (Via all your usual podcast apps or see link in bio). There’s so much I love about Seville, from the narrow streets lined with whitewashed houses to the grand Gothic cathedral to the simply dazzling Alcazar.

Then came COVID, and the resort had to close again. I’m thrilled to report that not only is the resort open again, it also has a new star recruit: the talented @chefjamesviles. He made Bowral’s Biota restaurant one of the state’s best; his presence here is yet another reason to visit this very special hideaway.
Get zooming: in these amazing artworks, it’s all Get zooming: in these amazing artworks, it’s all about the detail. These pieces by Arnhem Land artists are on display at @artgalleryofnsw. The first, by John Mawurndjul, is done on eucalyptus bark. The second artist, Gunybi Ganambar, operates out of an art centre that only uses materials drawn from the land, a stricture that he interprets loosely. This stunning piece is incised into a rubber conveyor belt from one of the mines operating on his traditional land.
