Welcome to my UA-cam Channel! A channel where I post weekly travel videos. I have a great backlog of videos from many of the 84 countries I have traveled to as a backpacker or as a more mid-range traveler - from Central Asia to West Africa, South America and more! I love rail journeys and feature a number of those too.
In 2023 I am taking to air and to the road - and to the rails, as I take you along as I attempt to travel from Dhaka in Bangladesh to Dakar in Senegal, West Africa, over 11,000km as the crow flies, but many more in the route I will take. Hopefully I will get out two videos per week (or maybe more) so join me through over 15 countries, many borders, as I experience South Asia, the Middle East, Europe and Africa in 2023!

Nice that you don't have to pay for the trams. A free museum as well? I always appreciate a historical building. I'm currently reading a book about the gold rush in California. When was Australias Gold Rush? Beautiful city center. A fascinating history Melbourne has. Good choice of music.
cheers. Gold rush in Victoria (cant say for other parts of Australia but Victoria was the biggest and most significant) was around the 1850s. Ballarat (one day will do a vlog) was the centre, today around 90 mins drive from Melbourne. But Gold was big in other regional centres such as Bendigo. It drove immigration obviously and free settlers (there was no convict colony I don't think in Victoria at all).
The record attendance for a sporting event at the MCG is 121,696 for the 1970 VFL Grand final.
Thanks for that and thanks for watching ! :)
You found somebody! Great cruise, lots of laughs and lovely scenery of the Yarra river
I will definitely be using the dilly dally Sally saying to my husband. He's such a dilly dally-er! Gold rush history is always so interesting to me and that was a massive nugget of gold 😮 wow. Seems like an interesting museum to check out there!
what a beautiful day exploring - you two have a create rapport!
Tim's an awesome guy with his own channel, blog and more. Thanks for watching glad you enjoyed it!
This is massive! For reference, the largest stadium in Jamaica only seats 30,000 but I guess with our population of just under 3 million people, we don't neee anything larger, ha! Thanks for sharing Andy!
if i ever get there (hope springs eternal) I really want to take in a cricket game in Caribbean the stadiums I see at the T20 World Cup were mostly built for the 2007 50 Over World Cup and not as atmospheric as the ones from yesteryear but still would love to take in the atmosphere. I remember getting up early for school in 1991 I think it was to watch Australia get thumped by the West Indies with Patrick Patterson, Ambrose and Marshall coming in at a million miles an hour. Those were the days the grounds appeared on TV like caldrons without a spare space to stand or sit! thanks for watching!
Really pretty area with that classic architecture. No dilly dally Sally. Who doesn't enjoy a FREE gem with all that history. Nice tour.
I'm not sure why suddenly I am using that phrase, the videos I've been editing lately I say it too. Thanks for your support Cynthia!
How long are you in Melbourne for man? Would love to chat about your experiences in west Africa!
Haha I LIVE in Melbourne. Wish I could travel more! Thanks for watching!
Looks like an interesting Historical Museum Andy and even better when it's free. That nugget of gold wow. The building itself is nice too. Happy you visited for the first time Andy. Well done
the nugget is a replica you know! Thanks as always for your support K & G and CONGRATS!
What amazing city views!! Thanks for sharing! 😄
thanks for watching!
The museum has so much history and details of ancient architecture. They maintained the museum so well. It reminds me of Faisal Bin Qasim museum here in Qatar
It's definitely a good one Thanks for watching!! 🐱
8 hours on a Qantas flight: okay I'll take it. 8 hours on a budget airline: you are so brave.
luckily it wasn't bad at all. Just a bit boring at times. if it was full it would have been a different story altogether. thanks for watching!
What a neat old treasury with so much history. I love free and interesting museums.
Cheers thanks for watching 🤠
😂 you guys are a crack up duo. 😂 Those girls whooing as they went by. Beautiful riverside to the city. Seems like a great place to spend a morning or afternoon getting a nice walk in. You said rear entry one too many times there. Lovely cruise. You get a great sense of the cityscape from the cruise.
Do they have shuttle service
not that I know of it's across a bridge from the airport. thanks for watching.
I love Andy
Cheers where you been???
Andy love your work!
Much appreciated 👍
What a fun little river boat ride. The bridges were low!! You guys looked like you had a lot of fun.
We always do.... Had to cut out so much!!!! Have to keep the PG rating lol 😆
You two crack me up having a little dance party at the back of the boat. Some of those bridges were SO low! A nice way to see the city though - great scenery from the river. And seems like you had a beautiful day for it.
Love the content and I’ve been to the old treasury before yet haven’t had the opportunity to see the gold vault when I was there I very much intend to go see them
Cheers thanks for the support it's a great little free part of Melbourne to check out!!
Wait - you don't have to pay for trams?? That's awesome
Only in the CBD but yeah there's a free zone for trams which is cool. Thanks for watching!!!
bonjour! enjoyed,you created unreal upload. Andy's,;)
Thanks for your support 🙏
I'm staying here next weekend on my Journey from Ireland 😊
Hopefully you have a comfy stay thanks for watching 😊
Love the tour of the cruise down the Yarra River. Your home town is a great place. The history of the river and the views are incredible. Looks like you guys had a great time.
Cheers we had a LOT of fun making this one 😁
A two hour delay can be troublesome but with the Captain coming to speak to guests directly and the range of snacks and a muffin :) sounds like scoot made it professional and tolerable. All in all great review!
Yes they handled it as well as they could agreed thanks for your support 🙏
Lovely tour of the cruise and your review. The food and ambiance look pretty good. Melbourne is one of the places we want to settle earlier. It looks really happening and picturesque too.
It's a good city in many respects for sure but far from perfect too. Thanks for watching
Scoot plus review was great. Muffins in all. Too bad about the 2 hour delays. Looked like its wasn't bad.
The flight was all good the delay was very annoying mostly because of the timing of the flight. If it was an overnight flight it wouldn't have mattered nearly as much thanks for watching
I'm undecided on how I feel about "Scoot" as an airline name LOL. But another thorough and helpful review.
I think it's not a great name but could be worse. 'Plummet' for example... thanks for watching!
@@AndysWorldJourneys 🤣
Hahaha!
Thanks for watching!
Very helpful! ❤
cheers!
Love it. Very entertaining, as always. I have added this to my list of things to do when I finally get to Melbourne. You guys certainly made it look fun! Wonder if anyone ever has got a hit on the head - those bridges really are low!
Glad you liked it Lynda! When ARE you coming to Melbourne? will need to save something up for you!
I'm pleased you showing us more of Australia especially your home town. The river looks lovely Great way of seeing the City. Spencer Bridge is impressive Look forward to seeing more of this series 🙌
Gots to do it when I can, can't unfortunately travel overseas nearly as much as I would if I could lol! Five in this series. thanks for watching!
I am not sure about an airline named Scoot... 😂. So about 480$, hmm how long is the flight again? Also what was a ticket price for the same flight at economy? Ah delays, at least they brought out refreshments. You never get that from any US airlines 🤦. If it was the only flight I was doing at the time I'd probably put out for the extra legroom. I always love the exit rows specifically for that reason. I like all the power sockets for the phone.
Economy is less than half that but then you pay for meals, seat selection and baggage. Probably all up around 59 to 60 percent of that fare but can be cheaper during sales m around a seven hour flight Singapore to Melbourne. Depending on tail winds or lack there of . Thanks for watching!
Chopper!!!
His ghost still haunts the place I imagine... Thanks for watching
I did 4 yrs in H Division for stealing a packet of chewy.
Those were hard times. These days you get a TV in room and free foot massages. Thanks for watching!!
What a tour. It was really crowded but if you can push through, it looked like a great way to spend the day. Up close and personal with the animals. Look like it was the best highlights of the area.
Cheers thanks for watching 😺
Delays suck, but at least it was a good flight. I liked the views! 😄
Cheers yeah wouldn't have minded so much but getting in so late was a bit of a bummer. Thanks 🙏
I have never heard of Scoot before. I'm all for the better seats, and included food option. Seems like a good deal overall though. Any airline can have delays these days, no matter what you pay.
Yeah timing was an issue getting home so late. Wouldn't have mattered in an AM arrival. Thanks for watching!!
Great video, thanks for sharing. Look forward to doing this one day too!
Cheers it's actually pretty decent!! 😀
@@AndysWorldJourneys yeah looks fun. What do you use to record under water btw?
It is the most popular thing to do for a reason! Looks like a great tour as long as you mind those monkeys!
You definitely need to keep an eye on them 🤠 thanks for watching!!!
One more useful review. Your Airport reviews are always candid and genuine. This Airport looks huge yet crowded. Its nice that you atleast got a muffin to compensate the delay. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Yeah delay was frustrating but they did their best to look after us. Thanks for your comments 🙏
Classic Andy!
Lol thanks 🙏
Not heard of scoot but always love your flight reviews. The airport looks huge. Shame for your delay at least you got a muffin haha Lunch looked good. Seat looked big Andy. I think overall a good flight.
Changi is massive and now has four terminals. Scoot were ok but I prefer air Asia even though scoot have this basic business offering. Thanks as always for your support 🙏
This looks like a fun boat ride and tour of the mangroves. Cheeky monkeys, gotta watch those fast fingers. Almost lost my stuff in CR once. The bar cave looks awesome!
Yeah the monkeys love to grab bags so you need your wits about you!!! Thanks for watching
Stayed on Sentosa Island with my cousin and we spent a day at Universal Studios which was a lot of fun. I’d forgotten about some of the attractions you’ve sparked my memory. Got a mild whiplash on one of those roller coasters! Don’t recall if we paid for express, don’t think so. WTF has happened to the Australian dollar? Used to be on par or a little more than the Singapore dollar!
The Singapore Dollar is super strong these days. Aud is ok it's been a lot worse against the greenback and it's super strong against the yen. But against the Singapore Dollar it's weak these days sadly
How much did you had to pay to cross the border. Great video by the way thx
thanks for watching. I paid 5000cfa on the pirogue which is about 15 Euro at a guess and about 3 Euro to some guy on the Senegalese side. The mini bus from Nouakchott I can't remember but it wouldnt have been more than 10-15 Euros same with the sept place to St Louis. At some point the bridge will be finished I guess and it will be easier. I was expecting to be asked to pay a lot more in the way in bribes. as you can see it was super quiet. so I figure i got lucky because it was a Friday and it was Ramadan at the time.
This looks like a fun and beautiful boat tour! The monkeys are crazy!! 😄
Thanks for watching!!?
Wow pretty expensive if the prices were dropped they’d get larger tour groups
Yes it's really expensive to be fair. Which is definitely robbing them of visitors sadly. Thanks for popping by!!
watching your videos makes my day
Cheers
yayyyy
Cheers
