Wildlife trips are rarely just about ticking animals off a list. The surroundings also become part of the memory. A day spent tracking pumas in Patagonia might involve hours watching the wind move across empty grasslands before anything appears. In Alaska, bear viewing usually means standing near fast-moving rivers while bald eagles circle overhead. Tanzania’s wildlife unfolds across vast open plains, while the Galapagos and Borneo place visitors in environments that feel entirely different from one another. Whether it’s a rainforest river, a volcanic island, or a remote mountain landscape, […]

Originally published via Armageddon Safari: One would hope this is just about drawing more tourism dollars, one of the major economic engines of the country — and yet, when the social engineers who pimp globo-homo race communism get involved, there’s always some darker ulterior motive afoot. Via Bangkok Post (emphasis added): “The Bangkok Pride Parade is scheduled for May 31 as Thailand bids to host World Pride 2030. One of the region’s major Pride parades is set to take place on Silom Road under the theme “Patch the World with Pride”, conveying a message […]

Originally published via Armageddon Safari: Fingered (figuratively speaking, obviously) by German state media, the radical “white supremacists” of — *checks notes* — Indonesia have been exposed, reaffirming the age-old adage that if everyone is a Nazi, no one is a Nazi! You know, the nation-state of Indonesia that’s: · 87% Muslim · 100% brown outside of a tiny smattering of (presumably Nazi) expats · 6,700 miles from Berlin · In the southern hemisphere But whatever. German state media’s got yarn to spin, the punchline of which is “give us control over your social […]

Uganda is a meeting point of several African biomes with diverse habitats hence the incredible diversity of wildlife including more than 1070 species, which accounts for about 50% of the bird species in Africa.

Originally published via Armageddon Safari: “Horrendous” also applies here, but I didn’t want to oversaturate the headline with adjectives. (Tucker Carlson’s “more verbs, less adjectives” mantra is the best writing advice perhaps ever dispensed.) Often, in East and Southeast Asia, picking out the Chinese based on purely physical features is more of an art than a science.

Originally published via Armageddon Safari: If you have no idea what the headline means, please understand that you’re not alone. It mystified me as well. Let’s back up. This exhilarating journey into the nonsense world of BBC Pidgin English began innocently enough with a video X fed me. “No carry your phone enta toilet!

Originally published via Armageddon Safari: Sodom and Gomorrah had nothing on modern Bangkok. Via Bangkok Post (emphasis added): “Forty-four men, many wearing only underwear and testing positive for illicit substances, were arrested during a raid on an illegal drug party early Saturday in Bangkok’s Wang Thonglang district. The operation, led by the Metropolitan Police Bureau, took place around 1.30am at a three-storey building on Soi Ramkhamhaeng 21. The premises reportedly hosted a private party targeting LGBTQ clients, with reports of drug use and suspicious activity. Police ordered activity to cease immediately upon entry. They found […]

Originally published via Armageddon Safari: I recently stumbled upon a true gem of an X post from @kunley_drukpa — not necessarily a ringing endorsement of expat life in India, but an expert treatise on the “low trust society” that rings all too true for anyone with experience in the Third World. A small excerpt: “A few years ago now I spent some time in India. One of the more lasting impressions I have from that period was the degree to which the low trust environment there (of a kind) wore me down mentally and transformed […]

The first time I ever saw elephants in a national park, it was a life-changing experience. Africa offers some of the best places in the world to encounter these giants up close. As a travel expert with 10+ years on safari all around Africa, I’ll guide you through where to see elephants in Africa, why these national parks are special, and when to visit them (some times are better than others). By the end, you’ll know where to find them in Kenya, Botswana, Tanzania, Zimbabwe, and South Africa. Kenya: Amboseli […]

Originally published via Armageddon Safari: Sometimes stereotypes hold true. Case in point: Asian men do indeed, as a rule of thumb, as anyone who has watched Japanese pornography may have noticed, tend to have smaller-than-average packages compared to those of the European persuasion and definitely pitted against the Africans. (I discuss issues related to the phallus in the context of living in East Asia as an expat extensively in my top-selling memoir, Broken English Teacher: Notes From Exile.) Accordingly, the Asian market is rife with all manner of pills and potions to […]

Forget the summer gridlock. The real story of America’s national parks is told in September and October, during the “secret season.” This is when the crowds disappear, the weather is perfect and the landscapes transform. The post-Labor Day slump is a traveler’s dream. With schools back in session, parks like Zion, Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon are no longer at peak capacity. This means a more intimate and enjoyable experience. The intense summer heat subsides, making hiking and outdoor activities not just possible, but genuinely pleasant. Think crisp, cool air […]
