Witty. Debonair. Stupidly handsome. Notorious liar.

I generally try to be a good egg.
Cappadocia is an unreal, utterly unique landscape.

Have arrived at frankly obscene cave hotel in Cappadocia.

Not pictured: 9 hour van journey to get here.

Staying overnight in Pamakkale. It is famous for its thermal spas. The town centre has an enormous steaming rock, which unfortunately looks like an elephant stopped by.

Cats: In Turkiye you are never more than three feet from a cat. Every photo I have taken has a furry assistant wrapped around my legs.

Zurich. A place of weird statues and nice toilets.

Basel is full of skeletons, skulls and sinister signs. I'm currently sat in the hotel bar and instead of football, they're showing a documentary about a graveyard. Still, the restaurant next door seems OK...

Basel is really into hosting the Women's Euros. Not only a great game last night between France and Germany, but already a statue commemorating Ann-Katrin Berger's amazing save.

The problem with standing near Lake Geneva is that after a while, you need the loo.
