#he’sgotalittlewilly...

An art gallery over 10,000 years old. Regardless of how Its done, messages from one person to another, across cultures, time and generations, have always been used by humans. Check the ghostly outline of the artists hand in the top right corner of the photo ↗️🖐🏿

Go right? Or left? Or both??? 🤷🏽‍♂️ Tough choices in the Maldives

Camping in a landscape millions of years old, with a culture that stretches back 65,000 years, watching stars that are lightyears away is enough to tie your brain in knots... Straya you BEAUTY!!!! Next stop Maldives 🇦🇺 👉🏽 🇲🇻

Burmese machu pichu in the lost land of Hpa-An. A landscape of towering limestone karsts, unexplored caves, ancient monasteries and more than the odd sunset on steroids. Myanmar is a wrap!! Brief stop over in the uk then ‘Straya I’m coming for you next... 🇲🇲 👉🏼 🇦🇺

Today started out with a sunrise over mist covered karsts, progressed to cancelling an interview due to armed insurgents, then met a monk who was angry at all the people having sex in his cave and finished with a hike up a karst as a storm blew in from the Bay of Bengal #lifeisunpredictable

Found them!!!! The endangered Western hoolock gibbons. Each morning they make a territorial call like a group of people repeatedly stepping on an plug. Also rather less attractively make an alarm call like someone being sick... despite that, they’re cuter than a basket full of puppies.

This man is over 90 years old. He was born into a British colony named Burma, watched the Japanese march through it, saw independence disintegrate into civil war and his home region turn into a insurgency. He now lives in a country named Myanmar and spends his days in a peaceful village high in the mountains surrounded by forest, singing gibbons and laughing children.

I’m in the western mountains of Myanmar on the border of rakhine, in a village belonging to the chin people. There’s no running water or mains electricity, the village is a 3 hour hike from the nearest road, surrounded by forest and yet somehow there’s mobile internet. This lady is weaving a traditional cloth that they’ve never sold and instead give to one another in the village. One ‘longyi’ (a traditional wrap around for men and women) takes about 5 days to make.
