Jamie's Journeys is a travel blog with a geopolitical bent. The premise is simple: reading about places will only take you so far; the best way to understand the world is to move through it.

Based between London and San Francisco, I've spent the last few years working my way across Eurasia, with a particular obsession for frontier territories and battlegrounds of great power competition.

The blog is written in something close to real time, with notes taken on the ground and posted shortly after. No itinerary guides, no sponsored content. Just the places, the history and whatever I happened to think about while I was there.
