There are few stories from along the way I have missed out (because I either forgot them at the time or be because I didn’t want the blogs to get to long), however as we having a few days at The Earth Lodge just outside Antigua, I thought it would be a good opportunity to … More Stories from along the way

Antigua We arrived in Antigua on a beautifully clear day and booked ourselves into The Terrace hostel, so called for its roof terrace bar. This gave us a lovely view of the three volcanoes that overlook the city and seemed an idea place to explore the city. We ventured out to research Spanish schools and … More Antigua and San Pedro La Laguna (Atitlan)

So it’s been a very long time since I updated anything on this blog! I aim to keep this a little more up-to-date going forward with some details of a basic (very) fitness regime I am working on whilst travelling. Before I started travelling in April 2013 I was using the gym to do a … More A little bit of training

I loved Belize, but I was glad to leave. For one, it was generally expensive. For two, they mainly spoke English which just felt like cheating. Now we are in Guatemala, Spanish speaking and easier on the wallet and I am happier 🙂 though I have to say, 3 weeks of not bothering with Spanish … More Guatemala – Flores, Tikal and Semuc Champey

AFTER 6 weeks of being away, and 4 weeks of travelling since leaving Buenos Aires, I finally made it to Belize and I was in the small fishing village of Punta Gorda in Southern Belize that is off the main tourist drag. Kate had been in the country a couple of days and was about … More BELIZE!

Panama isn’t too far from Belize compared to the journey I just did through South America, but it surely took long enough to do. The main issue is that unlike South America, most border crossings are not 24hr – so night buses are generally out. This also makes the trip more expensive, because when travelling … More Panama to Belize – the final sprint north

Ok, me been bad. I admit that having dutifully and even eagerly posted regular updates whilst in South America I have been somewhat tardy since reaching Central America. This is for two reasons. My journey from Panama to Belize was quick and tiring. Once reaching Belize, I was too busy relaxing with Kate and finally … More A belated and abridged update

Sitting on the porch of a cabana on a beach in Belize (with a few rums inside me), I find myself wondering if its ever too late. To late to achieve a physical challenge? To late to change career? (Or even *have* a career?) to late to go back to school? I late to change … More Is it ever to late? Or to early?

So I’ve been pretty busy this last couple of weeks and haven’t got round to doing any updates. There are a few stories to tell, but right now I am just too tired. Perhaps tomorrow. Or the next day. In Lieu of a proper blog, here are a few photo highlights; Cartagena – old town. … More Photo update

I am a few day behinds on my escapades, but don’t worry, I will catch up. First I just wanted to jump ahead to the ‘now’ as I am pleased with where I am, and where I’ve been. I have reached the north coast of South America. I’m in Cartagena, Colombia, and the next step … More South America; East coast to West, to North
