Welcome to my travel ‘glob’
Hey who let you in?!
Oh, the front door was open? No worries. In that case, welcome to my Glob!
I know what you’re thinking. Glob sounds weird. A bit like the noise a lasagna makes when it falls out of a window.

When I was going through my 7 months of chemotherapy, I was dreaming of exploring the world. So when I beat cancer, and went and did it. And I’ve been doing it ever since.

And most of all…enjoy the ‘glob’.

Russia – The Black Volga
The Black Volga The Black Volga. It’s not just a Soviet Era car but a well-known Russian urban legend. The story exploded to life in the 1970’s and always begins the same way. A black car appears, as if from nowhere, to take in unsuspecting passengers. These...
The Colombian Question – Cocaine and Cassie Sainsbury
The War On Drugs - Cassie Sainsbury. It’s a name that has quickly risen from obscurity to one synonymous with idiocy. It’s a story that seems to be repeated in the news on a regular basis. A young life, be it man or woman, is caught overseas with copious amounts of...
