I’ve taken two trips to Sardinia, which is rare for me. I usually don’t like to go back to a place – but this island has grown close to my heart. It’s rugged as hell, the trails are amazing, the food and hospitality are heard … Continue readingSardinian Sequel
In the Christmas holidays 25/6 Poe was down in the Algarve with James and I decided to head down there. My original plan was to go east, do the TET loop around the Sierra Nevada and head back to James. Effectively shortening the route back … Continue readingTrans-Algarve
This is simply a dump of all the photos I still have from this trip, now ten years ago. It was not a great idea to head into the Sahara two up in summer. But the school summer holidays defined the timeslot. It was hot … Continue readingMorocco 2015 – A Photo Essay
2018 and 19 were something of a machine gun. In 18 it was Hellas Rally then shortly afterwards I was off to Iceland. Obviously back in my IT days I must have been paid a little more than I am now as a teacher. Hectic … Continue readingSouth America 2019 – A Photo Essay

The current “project” is a loop from home in Germany through France, across the Pyrenees, down Portugal, back up Spain, into France and around the UK. So far, I have finished the “down Portugal” phase of the operation. I’ve written short updates on the trip … Continue readingFreezing in France
This one was also planned as a slightly longer trip, but sickness and heat got the better of me. Up in the mountains of the southern Balkans I was surviving it, but as the heat increased in the flatlands there was no hope. Then I … Continue readingThe Balkans
When I look back at my Summer 2023 trip to Czechia I have a weirdly negative perspective on the trip. As I upload this “photo essay” of the trip my memories metamorphose into something more positive. This was following the less-than-legal Trans Czech Trail, of … Continue readingCzechia
It’s been a while. Last post in January 2021, which wasn’t even a real post. Three big trips and a couple little ones between then and now. I’ve changed profession, I’m a motorcycle electrician now. That surely deserves a post. I started writing something about … Continue readingNicked
