The Green Corridor – Singapore’s former railway line that’s now a walking path

September 26, 2018 By James Clark 10 Comments

I’m a big fan of urban walking, and Singapore – being the urban planning masters that they are – are planning to create one of the world’s greatest walks along a former railway. Singapore and Kuala Lumpur were once connected by a direct railway, which ran from Keppel Road near Downtown Singapore to the Kuala […]

My first mountain climb – Mt Hibok-Hibok in the Philippines

Mt Hibok-Hibok

I love a good walk. I can wander the streets of New York or London all day no problem. While I am at ease on flat urban terrain, I have never attempted a mountain climb before. On my trip to the Philippines I figured this was the ideal place to test my flatland legs on […]

AirAsia fly to Hangzhou from Kuala Lumpur but they advertise Hangzhou as Shanghai, even though it is over 190km […]

Walking the length of Broadway, New York

August 4, 2010 By James Clark 34 Comments

Walking Broadway, New York

New York’s Broadway is a road that runs the entire length of the island of Manhattan (and continues through to the Bronx).
