I may be back at home doing unforgivably grown up stuff, but writing this latest blog has been an excuse to relive the volcano sunrises at #MtBatur and snorkeling with #Mantas on Nusa Penida island. Frequent drownings aside (becoming a theme?), #Indonesia was a blast! Go to BADVENTURING.COM for the post!

Three years ago today I was riding around the Peruvian Andes thanks to a travel writing competition win with @bikemagazineuk. Not only did I tour Peru for 2 weeks, but got to write a full ten page spread for publication - reigniting a fire for travel writing. Lots has happened since then, and lots more to write about! Keep track on Badventuring.com for more solo biking adventure stories. #AdvRider #Motorbikes #Peru #Writing #Travel #Blogger #InstaTravel #Portrait #adventure #Badventuring #wanderlust #Bikerlife #adventuretravel

If it sucks to return home after a long trip away (which it doesn't by the way...), then these sunsets, dog walks and weird parents help it to suck a little less... #SunsetWalks #Parents #Walkies #Husky #Farmland #MoreMosquitos #FieldsofWheat

When you find an SD card on the floor and find this #frogface on it... .Snorkeling with the Mantas will not be something I forget any time soon!

Finally! The second and final part of my Vietnam post is now live. Just tell me that doesn't look like a country you'd love to ride in? Like what you read? Be sure to follow the blog for future trip reports and updates 😘 Badventuring.com

Back home and with plenty of time to write, but there's not many posts left! Here's my exploits from southern Vietnam. Enjoy and don't forget to follow the blog on Facebook and WordPress for all updates! 🎉🎉🎉

After a year on the road, I finally returned home. I managed to surprise my parents by showing up unannounced on my birthday! To all those I've had the pleasure of sharing a beer with, to all those who've told me their hopes and fears while listening to mine, to the few who were mad enough to accompany me into dangerous and wild lands, to those who have been a part of my adventure. Thank you. The places have been spectacular, but the joy of travelling was always about meeting you, laughing through stories and bumbling through travelling with you. Keep it real everyone, float above it all and find your path. Hopefully that path crosses mine again in the future!

Snapshot of North East India's rickety #BambooBridges to celebrate #worldmotorcycleday. Ride hard and ride lucky ladies and gents. Let's keep broken bones to a minimum 😉

It was a couple of months ago, but not many shots compare to this #nofilter gem of my sunrise hike up the beautiful (if a little crowded) Mt Batur Volcano. A solid 3/10.

Just shredding zombies with the boys @sandboxvrhk. Awesome - will be back! #VR #HongKong #VirtualReality #Zombies #AirGuitarisGoodForYou #Rain

Mongolia was awesome. I have so many more shots to share with you guys..

Rainy days in Seoul. Washing away the hangovers.

Perhaps the craziest party I've been to (and that's saying something...). Read all about how I spent Holi festival in Pushkar on the latest blog, 'Striking the Colours' 🎨 Badventuring.com

Bali. Home to all those 2 out of 10 sunsets. This one left a lot to be improved upon. #SpoiledMuch

What everyone comes to Bali for, sick beaches. Kelingking is only approached by a sketchy and sunbaked rock/bamboo path. And when you get there, INSANE sporadic shorebreaks - easily >3.5 meters - destroy the beach and despite their fury, you can body-surf them if you don't mind a mouthful of sand (and pain). Here's to riding that sweet line between revitalised and broken! 🌊🌊
