Photography assistant

I spent most of today on a small cruiser boat, weaving in and around the boats racing in Saint Tropez.  Assisting a photographer, carrying cameras, wiping camera and taking a few shots of my own.  We had a bit of a mad rush to get there even though we had left an hour early, as [...]

Saint Tropez

I would have to say, yesterday was probably my bravest and most stressful travel journey so far. I started at 6:30am with a wakeup call, stayed at Gatwick the previous night so at least that was not stressful and then I got a flight to Marseille at 9:30 which was cool – no problems.  I then [...]

On the move

Well…that comfort stop is over, and I am on the move again.  Currently in the Starbucks at Victoria station having a bite to eat and using the free internet (might be the last for a few days) and contemplating a day full of travel tomorrow.  Bit stressed about getting from (a) to(b) I have to admit [...]

Learning

As time goes by and the years tick on, I think we get wiser. Well I hope we do.  Today is a learning, that despite what we say and what we do, at the end of the day, it is all about the people we meet, the people we know and the people who touch [...]

Next phase

Wow, I really hit the wall a bit more than I expected in the last couple of days.  Post holiday blues can occur, even when you are effectively on a permanent holiday apparently.  Being sick probably didn’t really help all that much either, I am just starting to feel better on that front today. 
The last [...]

Stressing

I am extremely far out of my comfort zone in a number of respects at the moment, and this morning I am doing a pretty good job at stressing, about everything.  So, I am taking a moment to take a deep breathe and get a bit of a reality check again…and then start working through [...]

Back home..preparing for next trip

Arrived back from Copenhagen into Heathrow yesterday late afternoon. Had a smooth flight, although the sore throat had developed into a cold so it was not so pleasant descending on the old ears.  I had sea noise in my ear for most of  the night.  Hooked up with my second kind friend who is letting [...]

Day 18 – Copenhagan

FINAL DAY!
Travelled back from Sweden and into Denmark again, arriving in Copenhagen just before lunch.  What a different day to when I arrived 18 days ago. It is sunny and quite warm, looks like about 20 degrees.  Sun, sun, sun.  Struggling with this throat, but have had a city tour on the coach and explored [...]
