Dubai
Dubai is a fascinating city that defies belief. I greatly enjoyed driving and walking around and taking photographs.
Los Angeles
The first time I visited Los Angeles I hated it. The second time I liked it. The third time I loved it. I can't wait to go back.
New York
I first visited New York in the late 90s, which of course was a childhood dream come true. I have been back many times since, but I still get excited whenever I'm in New York.
