My Journal

There are myriad web journalists, in the traditional sense, documenting the awe of the outdoors, hillwalking, mountaineering and what has come to be known as lightweight backpacking, as well as narrating tales of independent travel. Those theatres may seem, initially, to be very different but to me they are linked by the overwhelming desire to pull on a backpack and wander. I wish to swell the ranks of these true adventurers only for as long as others enjoy reading my own musings and this chronicle of my travel is a simple journal for the edification of those who are amused by it. Since I can remember, I was infused with a desire to experience, to explore and to learn but I remain merely a journeyman - there is still much backpacking to be done.
