New Journal 38 – Long days I’m Fighting back the sleep as I write this. This morning was another sunrise shoot. Julien (also known as Beboy) and I are beginning our days at 4:00am and ending at around midnight. The chase is on to capture this beautiful city amidst weather conditions that are incredibly unpredictable. […]
New Journal 36 – Progress in world of blogging A blog, for me, is a social document – an almost real-time biography in which, for the first time, the readers can affect the outcome. Unlike typical biographies which are written after-the-matter, blogs are ever-changing. They are written as you read them, as you live your […]
New Journal 16 – The border crossing In the wake of an announcement on Saturday that the Chilean border would finally be re-opened after weathering the worst storm in 10 years, we dashed to the bus station to buy tickets. In a whirlwind of rejections from bus companies who’d sold out, we found ourselves haggling […]
New Journal Entry 4 – An Unwelcome Guest Wind lashed at our tent while rain continued to pour down, as it had done the previous 12 hours. We were alone in a Patagonian forest close to the enchanting, Laguna De Los Tres. It was midnight and I’d just been woken up by something crawling across […]
New Journal Entry 3 – Finding internet This is my third attempt at publishing this post – the internet here is terrible! I wrote a full journal entry and didn’t save it. When I went to publish it the internet died and took with it my article. Hopefully this time it will work Tutorials – […]
New Journal Entry 2 – Finding clarity Our future, or at least short-term future, has become clearer over the last few days in the Argentinian capital. We were surrounded by the familiarity of unfamiliarity as we stepped out of the airport near Buenos Aires. The city is unknown to us but this feeling of being […]
European Road Trip Journal Day 14 (Travel Diary Day 261) The motorway is winding steeply around, seemingly without end. The darkness makes it hard to see where we are going. Cars are passing us on the other side of the road so I can’t keep my high beems on for very long. I feel like […]
Spanish Journal Day 3 (Travel Diary Day 257) I think Mother Nature isn’t happy with me right now. When we arrived in Valencia yesterday afternoon we were bathed in sun. 25 degrees with a slight breeze is all I ever ask for in life – we found it here. As the afternoon passed by, the […]
French Journal Day 172 (Travel Diary Day 252) It wasn’t until we rolled into the dimly lit car park of our motel that we realised why it was ‘reasonably’ priced. In front of us stood a box shaped building, as dark as its surrounding lot, more fitting of a bad-guys’ hideout found in some dystopian […]
French Journal Day 171 (Travel Diary Day 251) “Yes, officer” I replied. 2 other police officers looked on while two more searched our bags. I looked over at the lowering sun and wondered if the GB sticker on our car was the reason we’d been pulled over. It was the second time that French police […]
