About this blog

It's time for another adventure! Join me as I travel from La Paz, Bolivia - the highest capital in the world to Ushuaia, the most southern city on the planet. From there, I hop down to Antarctica to chase penguins.

Along the way, I'll be climbing volcanoes, mountain biking down the world's most dangerous road, white water rafting, and of course enjoying as much Argentinean Prime and Cabernet as I can along the way.

Please feel free to share this blog with your friends and family - and if anyone would like to receive email notifications, just click "Get email updates" on the right.

I love to receive emails on the road - so please keep in touch!
