The world is your garden - love it! PA..I have always wondered about your story. How luck Leslie and Tiffany are to have a father who has not only the world as his garden, but the joy in life to go out and play in its jungles, what an amazing gift you are giving them. As a fellow explorer of the underwater gardens I often have read your blogs wondering..where did this lust for life start?..at Kai Tek airport LOL! The first place I lived out of Australia was in Kowloon in 1986 so I can feel how big a start out that would have been. Travel well and thank you...looking forward to more of your adventures.
BON VOYAGE & DON'T FORGET Bon voyage Peter, Lesley & Tiffany...and don't forget to continue to smell the roses...ahh...another chapter in your life adventures awaits...hope its a cracker!
Hi, I was glad to see another email of your travels pop into my inbox, I always cherish reading them because I like vicariously through you, as I'm sure thousands of other people do too. :)
Your can-do attitude has inspired me to take my 11yo daughter around the world for 4 months at the end of the year. Life is short, we don't know what's around the corner so now is the time to live.
You don't know me, we've never met, but just wanted to say thanks for continuing to blog and I look forward to reading more of (our) life adventures.
Cheers,
Jan
Australia
Luxemburg I understand that Luxembourg is a tax haven and a very rich country. Perhaps if some of the large companies operating in Britain paid their due tax to Britain instead of through tax dodging using Luxembourg, people in Britain might be a little more sanguine about austerity. However, good luck in your new life, hope it is rewarding and exciting, a wonderful opportunity for the children!
Hi Bridget When we speak of tax heaven...don't forget that people in Luxembourg do pay income tax...and not specially low ones. I do agree with your comment on "dodging" taxes....but that's clearly not what is making Luxembourg wealthy...it's way more than that...
Asia is my home, the world is my garden Well--that says it all, doesn't it? Loved the time line. Your blogs always crack me up with a good use of humor. Life is short and meant to be enjoyed....glad you have the kids. We await your exciting South American adventures. Hopefully, our paths cross again soon.
Very Jealous! I had figured you were off to somewhere but not 16 months with the kids too! Have a fabulous time and keep us up to date on where you are up to and what youre doing.

Exciting! PA, Leslie & Tiffany - best of luck with the next chapter of Life, exciting times ahead!! Keep travelling, keep smiling and don't stop dreaming! :-)
Thanks for sharing a bit of your history... it helps to get to know you better. And thanks for your wrap up of Asia. Have a great time in South American, and make sure you blog more than once per month. We like reading about your adventures.
I stumbled across your photos and it brought back so many memories of when my family lived in Germany. We toured the castles and it was a spectacular sight. I would love to one day travel back there. Thank you for sharing :)
Cute-sy giraffes! So.... I need not go on safari to meet those giraffes! Just a round of golf and a wish they'd follow me as I move from hole to hole? Hahaha. Nice post here, Peter. And I love your office!
Kammoon the elephant strikes again! PA, you can now join an exclusive club - another Travelblogger to have been thrown into the Kwai River by Kammoon! Nice to see that I am not the only blogger on Travelblog to have received a dunking at Elephant's World. Glad you had a great time!
whaleshark hi we going to phuket 9th may til 22nd may and want to snorkel with whalesharks do you know who can take us or if they have been seen in or around phuket???any help would be great thanks
Well.....good luck... Sad to say, but it is close to impossible to find whaleshark and snorkel with them out of Phuket. Which means operators will offer that. They have whale sharks in the water....but so few for such a big area....sorry for that simple, but honest answer.
Glad you are looking happy...and the kids are doing well. Looks like a nice holiday. Keep on travelin'. Look us up when you get this way. Love that pool. On to the next adventure.
This blog is just short of 10 years old. We have now move to South Africa.
Why South Africa? Simple, great wine, great food, great golf and even more amazing diving! I will for once continue to blog from time to time about home. After all, this is just my fourth continent after having grow up in Europe, lived in Asia for twenty years, and even spent a full year living the life of Buenos Aires.
Come to visit....there is so much to do here! ... full info
