August 27th 2020 Today I’m going to sleep like a baby. Actually, a baby probably wouldn’t sleep very well on the floor in a tent with no pillow. That sounds horrible. Don’t do that. Basically, I’m very tired. I spent … Continue reading Views
Waterproof
August 25th 2020 Today I’m packed and ready to go to Scotland. I’m being picked up at 5:30 tomorrow morning, and I think I’ve got everything I need. I bought a coat today that is potentially not waterproof but I’m … Continue reading Waterproof
Scotland
August 24th 2020 Today I started to get stuff ready for Scotland. I’m driving up there this weekend with two of my best mates for a Sea Kayaking trip around the summer isles. Earlier this month Aaron tex thte group chat asking if we’d be keen, and I just replied “yes” without asking for details. Covid has already cancelled two of my holidays already this year, so I’ve been dying to get away on another one.

February 16th 2020 Today I finished reading Paulo Coelho’s The Alchemist. It’s a book that I bought four hours ago, in a tiny bookstore called Petronella’s in the lakeside village of Tekapo, on New Zealand’s South Island. I needed a … Continue reading Alchemist
Luge
February 12th 2020 Today we went luging down a mountain. I’m fairly sure luging is a word, and I use it to mean the past tense of ‘to luge’. If you don’t know the word, when you’re reading it over … Continue reading Luge
Wanaka
February 8th 2020 Today we travelled to Lake Wanaka, a beautiful little town in the mid-Centre-ish of New Zealand’s South Island. To get here, we had to drive through, around, and over the Southern Alps. So we saw a lot … Continue reading Wanaka
