Observing the Asian elephants socialising @elephantconservationcenter in Laos. A wonderful experience at a hard-working centre trying to ensure the survival of Elephas Maximus. In the ‘Land of a Million Elephants & White Parasol’ there are only around 800 pachyderms left

A new gastronomic + taste adventure in Luang Prabang. @pastelaofood draws on recipes crafted by a chef to the now vanished Royal family of Laos. At the helm are @chefbeepastebangkok from @pastebangkok - awarded a Michelin Star in the 2018 Bangkok Michelin Guide. @pastelaofood is based at The Apsara

Cuba's best beaches for @condenasttraveller My story + pictures: https://www.cntraveller.com/gallery/best-beaches-in-cuba

I love this Strava GPS heat map of Havana. It reminds me of the work of Cuban artist Ibrahim Miranda. I think it’s a chameleon... Look at the cruise terminal hotspot tongue and the cruise passenger tech trails disappearing into the Atlantic

The River Toa near Baracoa, Cuba. Sun, the water, a homestay, hammock and beer. Heaven...

Delighted to be asked to be the Cuba expert for @travelessentialist Lunch at Santy’s, on the river, is always worth seeking out in Havana

Seeking out Taíno rock art up on a limestone ledge near Baracoa, Cuba, with the town’s archaeologist. Also got a glimpse of the burial site of Taíno rebel Guamá - said to have been axe-murdered by his brother

Wild camping, e-biking and foodie adventures... Get yourselves to Cuba as adventure + foodie opps open up. My piece for @adventurecom https://adventure.com/cuba-adventure-travel-2018/ #cuba #adventuretravel #ebikes #camping #campervans #wildtravel #cubanbeach #cubanfood #diving #agritourism #casas

Top-notch vegetarian food in Baracoa, Cuba. I ❤️ Baracoa #cuba #baracoa #food #vegetarianfood #cubatravel

Riding the rails across Cuba for @wanderlustmag https://www.wanderlust.co.uk/content/cuba-rail-off-the-beaten-track/ This is the station at Cárdenas. The scheduled 6am to Jovellanos never left. I thought that maybe the Cárdenas timetable was fictional but there were other Cubans waiting... #Cuba #Cardenas #Cubatravel #trains #railways #cubantrains #travel

This natty home perch looks out over the Bay of Pigs in Caletón near Playa Larga, Cuba. Caletón used to be a low-key fishermen’s village with a handful of home stays. It’s transformed into a chilled beach community with dozens of B&Bs on the beach. #cuba #bayofpigs #cubabeach #cubatravel #caribbeanbeaches #travel

Exploring the beaches of Cuba. This beauty is on the south coast #Cuba #beaches #cubabeaches #caribbeanbeaches
