Specialist subjects and
destinations
My
main interests include independent travel,
covering backpacking, off-the-beaten-track
holidays, cultural tours and sightseeing. I also
have extensive experience of adventure travel and
activities, especially trekking, snowboarding,
surfing, mountain biking and white-water rafting.
Having worked on a travel website, I also have a
good knowledge of online and off-line travel
issues.
I've
travelled extensively across four continents and
have an in-depth knowledge of the following
countries: United Kingdom, Spain, France,
Portugal, USA, Canada, Morocco, Thailand,
Indonesia, Australia and New Zealand.
My
last big trip took me through Mexico and Central
America, stopping off in Belize, Guatemala,
Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Costa Rica.
Along the way I visited Mayan ruins, climbed
volcanoes, browsed colourful markets, trekked in
deserts, canyons and jungles, attended Spanish
school, surfed Pacific breaks and generally
sampled the cultures of local communities and the
backpacking scene.
