Breaking down and building up

17 Apr

Sometimes in life everything just stops.  Something happens and you just stop living. At the beginning of February, something happened in my life and overnight, I stopped living.  I suffered a breakdown and needed weeks off work and time away from all aspects of the world. I lost myself. I wanted to use those weeks [...]

Taking a microlight flight over Victoria Falls

12 Mar

Victoria Falls may not have been that impressive, on ground level, when it’s dry season but from up in the air? Simply breath-taking. It was my last day in Zambia and I was up for 7am waiting to be picked up for my microlight flight over Victoria Falls (and my first ever microlight flight at [...]

The almighty Victoria Falls – Zambia

27 Jan

I’m going to go ahead and admit something shocking; I wasn’t that impressed when I first saw Victoria Falls Zambia It’s an amazing place but because I was there in the dry season, it just wasn’t a ‘wow’ place since, instead of the continual sheet of water thundering over the top, there were several smaller [...]

It’s ok NOT to travel the world

23 Jan

If you ask people where they want to go on their adventures, their answer will be ‘travel the world’ but most people don’t really mean it, I know I don’t and you probably don’t either. In case you haven’t noticed, the world is pretty big. There’s a lot of ground (and sea) to cover and [...]
