The trip with Outward Bound was horrendous. Every single part of me ached. I met two great guys Paul and Ben and shared a tent with them in the wet, rain and midge hell that is the Scottish Highlands, experiencing the delights of dehydrated foods and the consequences it has on the digestive system.

The photo above was taken as a publicity shot for my Whizz-Kidz fundraising.
Over the next few years the group of people I travelled to Peru with kept in touch, emailed, and met up. We are planning our tenth anniversary. Over the years, we have met all over the UK, including a wonderful reunion in Northern Ireland.
In preparation for my trip to Kilimanjaro I decided to shave my hair off, this is still my passport photo.

This was the objective, Machu Picchu, Peru, by the time I arrived I was so exhausted I didn't really appreciate the view.
