Welcome to Roads Less Travelled. I derive great satisfaction from having been to some of the least-visited places out there; some elicit complete bafflement or just concern from the people that I tell. These are the kind of places many would choose not to visit. I have a taste for the unusual and an inherent distaste for tourist honey traps. I've visited communist countries, emirates, contested lands, unrecognised states, countries that don't exist, sultanates, police states, full-blown military dictatorships, and some of the newest countries on the planet.
