About me

Travelled six months in West Africa, Morocco to Guinea. Roughly the same in Western Europe. Travelled Bulgaria to slovakia for five weeks in Winter. I have hiked throughout Ireland, Scotland, Wales, the Alps, The Pyranees the Rif and the Atlas. Three months between Mexico, Belize and Cuba. Spent a winter living in Alpujarras in Andalucia, Spain and Moroccan Sahara.
