About My Favourite Planet
 

My Favourite Planet is a non-profit cultural and educational project
with the primary - although not exclusive - aim of providing information
for travellers and everyone interested in culture and art.

The website currently has three main sections:

My Favourite Planet Travel Guides

My Favourite Planet People

My Favourite Planet Blogs
 
My Favourite Planet Travel Guides
 

Original articles, maps, photo galleries and practical information, which collectively present portraits of particular places. The guides are continually being revised, expanded and updated as we obtain more information and images.

Links to the guides are on the left side of every page of this website.

Our Guide to Planet Earth presents a series of articles and essays about our favourite planet, written from very different perspectives.
 
My Favourite Planet People
 
The MFP People section contains illustated articles about personalities, historical, mythical and fictional. It began with short character profiles to avoid explanations every time a name was mentioned in other articles and sections of the website, but has since grown into a continually expanding project of its own.
 
My Favourite Planet Blogs
 
Views on what in the world's going on in words and pictures.

The Cheshire Cat Blog

A series of photo essays, articles, videos and postcards by various authors in different parts of the world. There is no fixed theme or format, and the blogs may be humorous or serious in tone.

Contributions to The Cheshire Cat Blog are welcome.
See the contribute page for details.

Edwin Drood's Column

The blog by the mysterious Edwin Drood. The Drood's articles contain strong opinions on news and events around the world. His searing gaze is directed on a wide variety of topics: from the economic crisis in the Euro Zone, through the weirdness of North Korea's leadership to the search for extra-terrestrial life.

  About the name "My Favourite Planet"
"This is my favourite planet
because it's the one with you on it"

The name "My Favourite Planet" was inspired by the song of that name by the British musician Hugh Featherstone. In the notes to his album Negotiations and Lovesongs Hugh wrote:

"Despite all the drawbacks – meagre size, funny money, mosquitoes, antique
toasters, limited off-world opportunities and primitive showers – this still remains one of my favourite planets."
