The world according to vavs

Mountain/Desert/Ocean/Jungle... which one are you?
I like to try and mix as many of these elements into each trip as possible, I love variety.

Thailand was my first 'real' trip and will always be a significant place for me, it spurned my wanderlust and I was delighted, thrilled and surprised by each moment there.

What has been your favourite journey?
Morocco - driving from Casablanca, throught the middle and high atlas mts via Rabat, Meknes, Fes, the Todra gorge and finishing in Marrakesh was the most fantastic way to see a country whose landscape seems to grow around you and change by the hour.

What are your Top 5 places worldwide?
The Marlborough Sounds, New Zealand Thailand NYC India Somewhere new!

wet wipes, copies of all documents, a first aid kit

Which passport stamp are you proudest of?
India

Which passport stamp would you most like to have?
Montenegro
