Myanmar (Burma) 2006 - The people are beautiful and friendly, the country amazingly unspoiled by western influences and life in places continues to go on as it did 200 years ago. Thousands of pagodas, tough roads and hot weather. A great ride. It’s a rotten shame that so many continue to be oppressed by a corrupt and self serving military dictatorship.
Tunisia Yachting Race - The Phoenician Experience – Tunisia to Malta Yacht Race - To commemorate 40 years of Malta and Tunisian relations the two governments put on a Yacht Race. 29 boats were to compete but due to some political problems and weather some pulled.
Kgale Hill in Gaborone - Climbing to the top of Kgale Hill in Gaborone, the capital city of Botswana - who could have imagined that it would not only provide me with a fantastic view but also allow me to witness Botswana's playful Baboons in their natural habitat.
Namibia & South Africa - Discover Namibia and South Africa in a 4x4. Camp in the desert, build a warm fire, stalk elephants at Etosha National Park, pose for a photo at the famous Cape Point, scale Table Mountain and sample some of South Africa’s best wines at Stellenbosch.
Nigeria Site Visit - Follow my day to day events of having to provision a new data center in Lagos, Nigeria. This was possibly the best and worst data center upgrade I've ever had to do.
Cycling China 2009 - This trip diary follows my (our) journey whilst cycling from Beijing to Shanghai. We cycle south through Baoding, Shijiazhuang and Xingtai, then east to Qingdao, and finally towards Shanghai.
