Welcome. I don’t use this much blog anymore, but there is still some good content here from back in the day, and I still travel a lot. Now though I just share on my Facebook and Youtube channels and then share that content here.
Jumping on a bus for Marrakesh in a couple hours. 1 night there and then on to Rome! Had a walk around a couple days ago and took some little clips of Essaouira on my phone. Let me know what you reckon. A walk in
Well now I know there are sharks around Essaouira, or at least there were. Link to original post on Facebook with more images
I took what might be my last walk around Essaouira today on a whim. Got some decent little snaps on my phone and took loads of 3 second clips which I’ll stitch into a short video at some point. Just getting the hang of this
I went to buy a few Ramadan sweet things, and this guy before me throws over 20 dirhams and walks away while the baker puts a few in a bag for him. I'm like "yeah that's a good amount, I'll have 20 dirhams too". As
I wrote a post! A round up of my 3 months living in Spain. The places, the people, the flying and the overall experience with lots of pictures and some videos. Read it. Living in Spain A wee bit of a retrospective post as I
Yesterday I mentioned to Zaki that I hadn't had couscous since I got to Morocco. Every night he brings me dinner which is bits and pieces of what they eat during Ramadan. This is not part of my rental agreement, they just do it! Last
A wee bit of a retrospective post as I am now in Morocco, but considering I have only been out of Spain for about 3 weeks I think the old memory might hold out. And so how was living in Spain for 3 months? Yeah
I subscribe to this channel about random stuff on YouTube. They did a short video on Brexit which made the whole thing a lot clearer in a simple, concise and generationally relevant way. Britain LEAVING the EU: EXPLAINED (mostly) The UK just voted to leave
Today I shaved, and that along with being fit and healthy made me feel like my 25 year old self again. That is aside from a few grey hairs, some wrinkles, and no longer being a member of the greatest attempt at peaceful social cohesion
I don’t know enough about politics to have a valid view on the financial consequences of staying or leaving the EU. I do have enough experience with people to know creating us and them is very seldom a positive thing. Surprised the world went in
Yay! My first jog in over a month. Tunes pumping while the sun set over the ocean. Only managed 9km total in 48 minutes. 4.5 out of Essaouira, along the beach and into the middle of nowhere, then 4.5 back home. It hurt, and I
A few more photos from my wander around Essaouira with Zaki today. Nice to see the place with a local. Then we went to the gym and when he gets back from the Mosque, he is going to bring me dinner which his mom cooks
Went to the fish market with Zaki and took some snaps on my phone. This one is my favourite. So much colour and life in this one picture. Link to original post on Facebook with more images
So there is this bed… An AMAZIIIIING BED… In Nampa, Idaho. Probably the best bed in the world. You’ll have to chat with Daisy Rain about it. In all of your travels, you’ve not slept in a bed quite like her guest room bed. 😉
Just realised I haven't blown my nose for about 10 minutes. It's the little things… Link to original post on Facebook with more images
What’s that little fella? You wish you had a Playstation?! But then you wouldn’t get to play outside with all this dirt… This kid outside the gym reminded me that going outdoors to play is not always a magical undertaking, even if it does make
So I went to the gym today, not that I should have necessarily, but I just couldn't spend another day inside. As if to reaffirm that I am not quite up to speck, I lost control of the weights for the first time in my
Woke up this morning and it felt like I had a collapsed lung and sandpaper in my throat. My first thought was "C'mon already I'm over being sick!" My second thought was "I am so glad I quit smoking", accompanied by an extreme feeling of
Starting to feel better and running out of stuff, so went to the Marche and bought things to cook up a lamb tagine! Lots of people out today. Link to original post on Facebook with more images
2 rolls of toilet paper, 150 pieces each, 2 nasal clearings per piece (I’m thrifty like that), that’s 600 blows in a couple days, not counting the occasional napkin or paper towel blow! No wonder it feels like I’ve been snorting bleach for a week…
Sick again, man flu this time which means it could be fatal. Needed to get out of the house though so went to the docks for fresh air. Link to original post on Facebook with more images
Before I got food poisoning, I actually went for a walk around my new town of Essaouira and took some snaps on my phone. Aside from the occasional bout of near death toilet marathons, I do love new places and cultures. Gets the life juice
After cooking and eating dinner 1, dinner 2 knocked on my door… Link to original post on Facebook with more images
