Good morning (okay, afternoon)! How are you feeling? I’m having a date latte and sitting outside by a kinda busy road. It’s 30C here and across the road is a ski slope. Yup. You read that right. Not really my sort of place… #StayBright
Cup of coffee on cafe table. A few large umbrellas provide shade and then a large slopes building housing the indoor ski slope is seen in the background.

Just misread a sign in the mall here in Dubai that claims it is the “Mall of exclusive access”. I read it as “Mall of excess”, so not completely wrong.

Good morning! How are you feeling? I’m soaking in all the energy and excitement of students as they hear from astronaut Don Thomas. Seeing the awe and wonder in their eyes will never get old. #StayBright #StayEverCurious

Good morn-afternoon! How are you feeling? Getting set to take an astronaut round some schools in Dubai next week and doing a little site seeing with him this afternoon which is fun. Trying to remember all I’ve done in past few weeks -so many things! Check out this cool Omani rock garden! #StayBright
Bright bold blue sky forms the background tk a large and curiously shaped rock that has been eroded by wind and sand over thousands of years. The ground is light and sandy, with bits of rock strewn about that have chipped of the larger surrounding rocks. Stunning in the bright sunlight.

Good morning! How are you feeling? New day, new country! Currently in Dubai & reunited with luggage from earlier in the trip. Feeling quite emotional as I was scared I’d lost a ring my mother made, and it wasn’t in the place it might have been, but then found it in pocket of a bag. Whew. #StayBright
View from aeroplane window showing wing of the plane, brown mountains and blue sky. A dusty haze on the horizon. View as I was leaving Muscat, Oman.

Good morning! How are you feeling? I am in the middle of nowhere surrounded by rocky sandy desert. Here checking out the first spaceport in the Middle East. It’s in its infancy but definitely has potential. Didn’t get stung by a scorpion so that’s a win! #StayBright
Image shows very flat terrain with sand and small shrubs and rocks stretching of i to the distance. A sandy haze above horizon leads into clear blue sky. In the middle distance a line camel is standing and minding its own business.

Good morning! How are you feeling? Up early today and getting set to explore a new part of Oman and visit the Etlaq Spaceport. Lovely Omani dinner and hospitality last night - and then a wonderful surprise that made me giggle back at the hotel. Am now proud owner of Oman football shirt! #StayBright
Image shows a long table with plates of food and juice. Either side sit Omani under-23 footballers in their red hoodies. Kate is sat at the top of the table grinning like an idiot for this slightly mad photo op.

Good morning! How are you feeling? Yesterday was a little bit incredible. I swam with turtles. Like, lots of turtles! I counted 24 at one point! Amazing. No idea if super cheap underwater fake go pro pics will be any good on big screen, but here’s one! Wow. #StayBright PS Olympic football team back
Image of the back of a small camera in underwater housing. Showing an image of a large turtle swimming up to the surface to take a breath. Majestic!

Good morning! How are you feeling? No footballers at breakfast because I was up early for a trip to the Damanyiat islands where I am going to do some snorkelling and maybe even swim with a turtle or two. Fingers crossed for friendly sea creatures and not ones that bite! #StayBright
The wake of a speedboat and the back of the boat also in shot. Speeding along the Strait of Oman in search of islands and epic snorkelling.

Good morning! How are you feeling? I finally made it to hotel in Muscat after flight cancellation and delays. Then I conked out and slept all the sleep. In a very ‘Kate’ turn of events, at breakfast it was just me and the entire Omani Olympic football team. 😂 #StayBright

Good morning! How are you feeling? My flight got cancelled and I’ve barely slept and I’m sad the Vietnam adventure is over. Waiting to get on a flight to Muscat now, then need to remind myself of all the nice things I’ve seen and done to cheer myself up a bit. Like the Koi cafe… #StayBright
Koi carp in a pool. Close up shows one with a white head and its mouth wide open to scoop in the water and air. Big orange splodge on its back.

Good morning from Ho Cho Min City! How are you feeling? It’s my last day in Vietnam which is a bit sad. Next adventure awaits! Off to track down a cafe with koi carp and some coconut coffee to bring back to the UK. Still travelling, but moving back into a work phase of the trip. #StayBright
Night time shot across open air restaurant with string a if fairy lights and three lines of coloured lanterns at the back. A sign above has lit up letters spelling out the restaurant name: “Secret Garden”

Good morning! How are you feeling? I’m pretty tired actually. Think I got a bit dehydrated yesterday. Enjoyed a trip to the Central Post Office in Ho Chi Min City to send a postcard. Weather seems decent today, but we’re heading down tiny tunnels and learning some history. #StayBright
Photo shoes arched ceiling and huge scale of the Central Post Office in Ho Chi Min Coty. Tiled floor, service counters and shops either side.

Good morning! How are you feeling? Woke to the sound of rain and big crashing waves. Guess we chose the right day to leave the island and head to Ho Chi Min City. Going to have one last amazing coconut coffee in my favourite cafe on the sea. View a little different from yesterday’s! #StayBright
Brightly coloured fishing boat in blue with yellow and red stripes. Smaller sampan approaching it in the sea.

Good morning! How are you feeling? We found the beach just as the rain found us, but settled in a little local restaurant and moved tables onto the sand for sunset when the rain passed. There was even a rainbow! And we’re definitely not in the touristy bit of Phu Quoc! #StayBright
Sunset over the sea. Dark clouds contrasting yellows and warm oranges in the sky all reflecting on the ocean

Can’t find the place we are meant to be staying so chilling in a cafe with a mango smoothie. Feeling pretty chill about it all.
Photo shows mango smoothie in a stemmed glass with a straw and decorative leaf. Tiled floor and chairs and tables with the sea in the background and fishing boats in bright blues and greens on the water

Good morning! How are you feeling? Currently on a high speed ferry awaiting departure. Beautiful tour of Mekong Delta canals and floating market (on its way out due to bridges meaning people can used mopeds instead of boats these days). Enjoyed cooking class and resulting food. #StayBright

Good morning! How are you feeling? Very early start to catch sunrise on the Mekong River. Then checking out a floating market and coffee/breakfast on the water. Got lucky with the weather and the sun is actually out today! #StayBright
Sunrise on the Mekong river. Outlines of people on boats on the water. Orange glow in the sky

Good morning! How are you feeling? Very hot and humid here in Can Tho on Mekong Delta. Looking forward to a relaxed day of exploring and then floating markets early tomorrow morning. Excited to explore the south of Vietnam. #StayBright
Old Vietnamese man in grey checked shirt leans over a barbecue grill cooking street food in the Can Tho food market. It’s darks and there are yellow tubs of fillings and some round tortilla like things piled up on the table beside him

Good morning! How are you feeling? It’s my last day in Hanoi and I’m going to miss this place. Popping in to a couple of favourite little spots before I leave. Ninh Binh yesterday was incredible. Stunning views and boat trip through some caves. Shame about the concrete industry. #StayBright
Small pagoda in the middle of a waterway. Surrounding by huge limestone protrusions covered in greenery. Picturesque even in cloudy weather.

Good morning! How are you feeling? After the beauty of Ha Long Bay it was back to the bustle of Hanoi and some street food and ‘bia hoi’. (Draft beer with no preservatives so it has to be drunk within 24 hrs). I’ve really quite fallen for Hanoi. #StayBright
Two people sat in small stools and a chair on street in Hanoi. The lady wears a traditional Vietnamese wide cone hat and has set down her baskets of fruit she has been selling. She is talking with a key cutter.

Good morning! How are you feeling? Vietnam continues to amaze me. Ha Long Bay is busy but beautiful. The natural majesty of the rocks is really something to behold. Incredible this morning too. Awestruck. #StayBright
Sun setting behind some of the limestone protrusions in Ha Long bay. Cruise ship in left of the picture, nice cloud formations and blue into golden light.

Good morning! How are you feeling? Busy day walking around Hanoi and now off to experience Ha Long Bay. Liked this art piece which is made from electrical wire! #StayBright
Public art showing train tracks going over a large metal bridge. All mad from thin bits of electrical wire in different colours.
