September 9, 2019 by Rosemary

4 Beautiful Locations in the Kimberley to Include in Your Itinerary The Kimberley region sits on the north-western edge of Australia and is known as one of the last wilderness frontiers on the planet.

A West African Border

August 25, 2019 by Rosemary

Through the Sahara

Allen stops the truck amidst a billowing cloud of red dust. In Australia we call it; bull dust. Fine like talcum powder and it gets in everywhere; in the truck, in your clothes and in your ears, nose and mouth. It’s hot, intensely hot, unbelievably hot, 43C-45C and has been for weeks. Night time in the back of the truck is like sleeping in a slippery lather of salty body fluids, never cooling down below 35C; and people tell me, “Ah, but this … [Read more...]

Mongolia – Food Glorious Food

April 4, 2019 by Rosemary

Rensina van Den Heuval regularly takes small trips to Mongolia - you can join her 24 August - 9 September 2019 this year More. Here she writes about food in Mongolia. Dumplings... Sitting in a teeny cafe in a Gobi desert town of Dalanzadgad, I see a very tall young Mongolian man saunter through the door. Everything about him is big. His presence, his walk and his traditional brown leather boots with pointy turned up toes. I am guessing … [Read more...]

Becoming a Digital Nomad

October 24, 2017 by Rosemary

Digital nomad Collen Kinsey

Colleen Kinsey Writes about life as a digital nomad I remember what my life was like two years ago. I did the normal 8 to 5 corporate job Monday through Friday. By the time Friday would finally roll around, I was too exhausted to plan the trips or adventures I was secretly pining to do. Instead, I would scroll through travel blogs and Pinterest and dreaming of a different life. One day, I came across a blog that mentioned the term “digital … [Read more...]

West Coast of Africa

October 9, 2017 by Rosemary

The West Coast of Africa is a place that I have dreamed of travelling in for a ‘lifetime’…but the opportunity never presented itself and I was always busy ‘doing’ other things. I have travelled in many countries now and as the world has changed a lot since my teenage dreams of it, Africa has waited. Rensina van den Heuvel writes: But I am 61 now and time waits for no one. As my overlander travelling partner, love of my life and treasured … [Read more...]

Walk with Camels

June 11, 2017 by Rosemary

rensina - walk with camels - overland trekking

Rensina is once again heading overland.  This time in Australia. "Just stay up on the wagon, hang on to the reins and hold the handbrake as well; in case they bolt," Debbie yelled at me as she attempted to control the two huge woolly beasts which she has just harnessed to the wagon which I am now standing on. Truth be known I was actually clinging on; in an elevated state of alert....not quite panic. My adrenaline levels hit a new high when … [Read more...]

Rafting the Urubamba River in the Sacred Valley

July 23, 2016 by Rosemary

Rafting the Urubamba River

When I read the Lost City of the Inca’s, the Urubamba River was such a key element in the story of the Sacred Valley, that I set out to find a way to raft it. Some warned against ‘less than satisfactory’ safety and equipment on some trips, so we asked advice and found Apumayo.com offered a 2 hour rafting trip near Ollantaytambo. What a great trip – Luis our guide was fantastic, spoke great English, knew his plants and history. He … [Read more...]
