A Spring in the Steppe

The true heart of Kazakhstan can be found in its vast steppe land, at times stretching to an infinite horizon in every direction. The world’s ninth largest country, a third of Kazakhstan’s colossal land area is steppe, an indication of just how immense this landscape is. So common is the sight of eternal, flat plain that it is easy to take this beautiful habitat for granted and many exploring the natural wonders of the country bypass this glorious grassland and focus mainly on […]

Wolves at the door

Sure, we only had a few days left on our US Visa, but it would have been poor form to leave without visiting Yellowstone National Park. So we took another detour. As it happened, this was the last weekend that many of the roads in the park were going to be open. Everything was winding down […]

That time we drove to Canada when we were supposed to head for Mexico

What is the shortest way from New York City to Tijuana? Well, aside from flying, it still probably isn’t via Canada. But that is way we went. As it happens, even driving straight to Canada from New York City seemed far too straightforward. So we started by driving the scariest roads New Jersey had to offer. First stop—Shades […]

Nevada, not just aliens and neon lights

Since we completely failed to be abducted by aliens in Nevada, we felt it was time for some adventures of a different kind.  First up was a really big dam.  I guess we expected more. It wasn’t as large as we had imagined and what we had really wanted to do was visit the old […]

Trekking in the High Tatras

Walking up to Morksie Oro, the famous crystal blue lake in the Polish Tatras had been something that we had looked forward to throughout our time in the country. Upon arrival, however, we learned that dogs are not allowed into the national park which contains it, and unwilling to leave the hound alone in the van for a day while… Read more →

Wild Bison in Białowieża

Europe was once a postcard of biological diversity, with an abundance of wild beasts roaming free through its forests, plains and valleys. Unfortunately, today, human interference has changed that drastically and while one may spot a deer from time to time, or complain that an urban fox got into suburban bins, it is but a touch on the spoil of life… Read more →

So are we in Alaska, or British Columbia?

As we’ve mentioned, we quite enjoyed Alaska, we didn’t want to miss our last opportunity for a visit, so we made the detour to Stewart and Hyder. Stewart is in British Columbia. Hyder is right next door and is technically in Alaska, although they do use Canadian money and run mostly on Canadian time (except […]

Galapagos Islands

It was time for us to take another mini holiday from our truck (or should I say fact finding and exploratory mission) and so the Galapagos Islands off the coast of Ecuador was our destination. It is always sad leaving our truck, but more importantly we had to find a secure place to park it...

House sitting in Chile finished

House sitting in Chile can be fun. But for us, it’s over. We were parked up for just over a month, and we’ve now got ichy feet. This is what we have been doing. Tennis of course Sarah made a quick trip to Ireland and France to see family, and to check out some Tennis. …...
