Hailing from West London, I've decided it was time I leave the village of Ladbroke Grove to go traveling. My aim is to take a break from London and see other ways of living.

I have been inspired by the many friends I’ve made over the years that have come from far off lands and made their lives in London, for a time at least. To me they were really brave, coming to London, learning another language and starting up a new network and community.

I’m not planning on living anywhere; I just want to pass through some countries and have new experiences, learning to play again. I also want to learn another language, Spanish I'm hoping, will take to me like a duck to water, but we shall see.

People keep telling me I’m brave, I don’t think so but you’ll get to see just how brave I am on this travel blog.

I plan to tour the Caribbean, Central and South America, starting in the Spice Island Grenada, where my folks come from. The Crew (brothers, cousin, nephew) will also be visiting Grenada, which is a great boost at the start of my travels, for the rest of it I shall be mostly solo.

Watch this space to see where and what I get up to.
