Daniel Hawes
I'm a halfy (English-Malay), from London UK. Some people may associate me with Bruce Lee or just a generic oriental. Very keen sportsman with cricket being my activity of choice (but apparently better at football); enjoy nature and science documentaries (closet Trekky too) plus have an ability to crack numerous amounts of bones in my body. Some people would be surprised to know I've had plastic surgery too
I depart the organised madness of London on March 5th, for a seven month expedition. I am to go by myself to discover places that I have only seen on television or didn't even know existed. The journey starts in India, drifts through South-East Asia, onto Australasia and finally come to an end on the east coast of South America.
I hope to see wonders such as the Taj Mahal and Machu Picchu; meet magnificent specimens of nature such as Bengali Tigers and Orangutans but most of all meet great people from different cultures and hopefully make a few friends too.
