Dormant Volcano
January 7, 2012 By Leave a Comment
On the way to Bolivia’s massive Salar de Uyuni I briefly crossed the Chilean border and into the Atacama desert. Here I saw vast coloured lakes, given their vibrant greens, reds and blues by the minerals of the neighbouring volcanoes. Sitting calmly in the distance was this ancient beast, a dormant volcano reflecting on its former life.

The ancient Mayan ruins of Palenque are located deep in the jungles of southern Mexico in the state of Chipas. I took a day to explore the ruins on Christmas eve. Only 10% of the ruins have been uncovered, the rest lie hidden in the deep forest surrounding the site.

I spent a few weeks in Taganga, a small fishing village on Colombia’s Caribbean coastline. An extremely relaxing place with night after night of glorious sunsets.

Arbol de Piedra, translates to “Tree of Stone”, is a rock formation I came across on the way to Bolivia’s Salar de Uyuni. The peculiar formation is located in the Eduardo Avaroa Andean Fauna National Reserve, deep in the south of Bolivia.
Lost City of the Incas

I sat on the terraces of Machu Picchu to absorb the scene infront of me. The sun rising from behind the mountains, the remains of an ancient civilization perched on the mountain, this is truly a magical place.
I'm travelling the world once again, but this time a little differently. I am currently cycle touring my way through Europe. On the 11/11/11 I pedalled out of Bromsgrove, a few hundred kilometres north-west of London. From there I made my way through central London, down to Dover, caught a ferry to Calais and got started in France. Calais to Amiens, through the hustle and bustle of Paris, into the southern wine regions and am now heading to the Mediterranean coast and the city of Marseille.
