    What has travelling a lot done for you?

    I used to be a shy kid and teenager until a mate went home and i found myself in Indonesia by myself. I spent 6 months traveling alone and it forced me to come outta my shell and meet people. I gained confidence, independence, seen a lot of cool shít, picked up 2 languages, overcame the fear of flying i had as a child, rode women from all over the world, been to every continent, i've become more easy going and appreciate the smaller things in life from seeing people with fúck all. I've got to work with kids from horrific backgrounds and endangered animals. While it has cost me a lot of money over the years it's probably worked out cheaper than being here all the time as i do everything overland bar necessary flights across oceans. I prefer the cheaper countries as the people are better craic. Money makes people idiots.

    Too many to list as i've been to 91 countries.

    Every mainland country from Canada down to the tip of Argentina except for French Guiana. Only Carribbean countries i've been in were Cuba and Jamaica.

    Done a loop of Africa through the coastal countries and some inland ones.

    Been to 25 countries in Europe and 15 in Asia.

    Also been to Australia and New Zealand.


    I work from home and just need a lap top and a wifi zone. So i usually try travel for a few months of the year as i've no commitments. Went backpacking for a year twice when i was younger.

    Not sure if i'll ever hit 100 though as most of the countries left i have no interest in going to.

    91 !!

    are you on the run from interpol??

    I've been all over the place as you can see above (but not as much as some) but still I've always wanted to travel round the world but not rush it. I didnt want to jet into five or six places. So, I decided to at least have a go. So far Ive got as far as Nantes. And now Ive lost my job (Thank you Brian Cowen). So, its put a hopefully temporary halt to it Everyday I sent a postcard back to my house - just to remind me of the place.

    I'm only writing this very slowly - forgive me, its dire.:o I update it very little
