HONDURAS | Thursday, 27 Jun 2013 | Views [684]

The day started as any other, a loud annoying beep signalling time to get up,  begrudgingly climbing out of bed, still groggy from an already forgotten dream. And then you remember the reason for your alarm... This morning you're off to break a ... Read more >

MEXICO | Friday, 22 Mar 2013 | Views [906]

AUSTRALIA | Sunday, 17 Mar 2013 | Views [926]

I can't sleep. Not so odd for me, but for a change, tonight's insomnia has a genuine reason. Right now I only have two more nights in my comfy bed, in the flat I have lived in for over 4 years, before I run off overseas for a crazy adventure in many ... Read more >
