Borneo, 2014

March 2014 • in Travel

Borneo is a beautiful and unique place, a tropical island complete with sandy beaches, but also a land mass large enough to support enormous (and controversial) palm plantations and a massive expanse of jungle as well. It is an island rich in natural wonders from the awe-inspiring Mount Kinabalu to the Orang Utan and much more.

Peru, 2012

September 2012 • in Travel

Shortly after we got engaged, my fiancée noticed a sale on for flights to South America. We knew it wouldn't be sensible to go travelling; weddings don't organise (or pay for) themselves, you know. Happily, we're not very sensible people, so we jumped on the cheap fares and set our sights on Machu Picchu in Peru!

Europe, 2008

December 2008 • in Travel

In 2008, my girlfriend (now wife) Alicia and I took six months off to travel around Europe - and I do mean Europe: we saw 25 countries in 26 weeks! It was an amazing and exhausting trip; we hardly stayed anywhere longer than a few days, which meant that we saw lots, from music festivals to traditional markets, art to architecture, the hustle and bustle of life in cities to the natural beauty and tranquillity of the countryside.
