CURRENT MISSION

Uncovering more corners of the world...

ABOUT ME

I now work in London after travelling the world a few years ago. No more big trips for a years sadly but I enjoy visiting some cool/new/interesting/historic/fun places in the holiday I get from work. Sometimes I go away with friends on livelier party-type holidays (usually involving a music festival!)... but the experiences when I go away with just my bag and camera for company can sometimes be the best - going exactly where I want and meeting some great local people.

But yeah I'm a friendly guy, respectful guest, inquisitive, up for exploring cities and also the great outdoors by day...and I enjoy a beer at night!

Played Kabadi in front of hundreds of people at the Pushkar Camel Fair in India... somehow got myself roped in to a Locals Vs Visitors match. Camera crews, interviews, trophies after...very unexpected!
