NEPAL | Saturday, 27 Oct 2007 | Views [1077] | Comments [1]
The last (and first episode) of this was all about a bit of daredevil jumping off cliffs etc. and i had arrived in Pokora for the 8 day trek to Annapurna Base Camp. The organisation of this was a bit of a farce to say the least (something you come to ... Read more >

It may have been over two years, however the time has come (for those who don't know) for another travelogue...this time its Nepal. I'm still (even after 4 days of being here) why i decided to go to Nepal (or none that i can mention at the moment!). ... Read more >

CHINA | Sunday, 2 Oct 2005 | Views [583]
Well..unbelievably its very near time to head back to Sunny Leeds and face the computer on a daily basis once more. The last week has been far the quietest and also the most bizarre. After leaving the serenity of Lijiang, I got a flight to Shanghai ... Read more >

CHINA | Sunday, 25 Sep 2005 | Views [751]
Well it just continues to be a mad dash around China. After leaving the email the other day, i went to the 'opera' in Chengdu. It turned out that it was less of a traditional opera and more of a Chinese variety performance, with lots of spinning of ... Read more >

Well - its been a long time, but i'm finally getting back in touch with the many people i've met along the years and have kept far too infrequent contact with.....that obviously means that i'm up to something less mundane than sitting behind a desk and ... Read more >

Well this is the last one. After 4 and a bit months of travelling and seeing some amazing things, meeting wonderful people and all that, it is time to venture back home and join the dole queue. The last week has been spent on the Galapagos Islands ... Read more >

PERU | Friday, 23 Apr 2004 | Views [813]
Well - one of the best weeks of the trip so far... After a couple of days in Cusco, we travelled back to the Peru-Bolivia border to go to Puno and check Lake Titicaca out. Lake Titicaca is set at about 3,500 metres (in attitude terms). After taking ... Read more >

BOLIVIA | Sunday, 11 Apr 2004 | Views [563]
The last few days have been all go and very different from the lazy days in Argentina. After leaving San Pedro de Atacama (which as i am sure from the last e-mail i sent made the point, i loved) and finally hooking up with the Australian guy (who we ... Read more >

CHILE | Sunday, 4 Apr 2004 | Views [828]
After dragging ourselves away from Bariloche (highly recommend it), we took (another) overnight bus up to Mendoza. Mendoza is the country's largest wine producing region (about 90% of the country's wine is made there) and obviously had to visit a few ... Read more >

ARGENTINA | Tuesday, 23 Mar 2004 | Views [550]
Well it has been a couple of action packed weeks since the last time I wrote and hope everything is good back wherever you are. After leaving Puerto Madryn, we took an apparent 16 hour bus journey to El Calafate. However, the bus company that we ... Read more >

ARGENTINA | Monday, 8 Mar 2004 | Views [425]
Admittedly, last week I did say that I'd be raising a glass of fine wine for you all. However, this may have gone a bit far and after time spent sleeping on floors instead of beds (because I couldn't quite reach it), I have come to realise the dangers ... Read more >

BRAZIL | Thursday, 26 Feb 2004 | Views [545]
Well, I've been a bit lazy and forgot to send an update at the weekend, so am obviously a bit late this time. However, as you can tell from the title it has been a mad few 10 days or so. We left Manaus in somewhat strange circumstances. The tour ... Read more >

BRAZIL | Sunday, 15 Feb 2004 | Views [549]
Took the bus from Santa Elena in Venezuela to Manaus in Brazil. The bus journey itself was a boring 12 hours, however leather reclining seats made it a bit more comfortable. It was a bit alarming to realise that like what seems to be every driver in ... Read more >

COLOMBIA | Monday, 9 Feb 2004 | Views [777]
So much to say - such a bad computer connection that I am on, so we'll see how much of it gets through. Spent a nice couple of days chilling in San Jose - went to the National Museum, had the best ice cream ever and the customary local beers. The ... Read more >

COSTA RICA | Friday, 30 Jan 2004 | Views [1536]
Another week, another update. One month ago (to the day), we left a damp England and it feels like so much longer - as if working was a distant memory. I think only one day in the month has been below 25 degrees and in general it is in the mid 30's ... Read more >

NICARAGUA | Sunday, 25 Jan 2004 | Views [610]
Well it has been 2 weeks since the last update and i've got a reason why it has been so long. After arriving in Antigua, we decided to climb Volcan Pacaya the next day (after being promised amazing scenery and chances to see the lava from the crater).... Read more >

Well - it has only been a week, but we have done so much that it seems so much longer. After leaving Cancun (couldn't get out of there quick enough), we took a bus to Mérida - took about 4 hours and was an executive one (reclining seats, TV, the ... Read more >
