I've seen a fair chunk of the world including spending time in India, Nepal, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Australia and New Zealand, Chile, a bit of America and the Caribbean as well as much of Europe, Turkey and Morocco.

Beach No 9, on Havelock Island, India is my favourite, as it's heaven on earth and utterly unspoilt. My favourite city is Istanbul because it's beautiful and relaxed, and you can see its 3,000 year history everywhere.

My strangest travel moment so far is watching water buffalo fighting in Western Sumatra, especially when no one seemed to know what to do when one of the buffalo gave up and ran away!

I'm originally from South Africa and have travelled through most of Southern Africa, Mozambique, Botswana, East Africa, Western Europe, Sweden and Czech Republic. I've also been to Australia, New Zealand, USA (LA, New York, Hawaii), Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Dubai, Egypt, Morocco and India..

My travel highlights was staying in a Luxury Lodge in the middle of the Okavango Delta, and being guided through the water channels in a 'Mokoro', a traditional canoe, observing the wilderness and sipping on fresh water through a stem of a lily. I also loved Rajasthan, eating Indian cuisine and being treated like royalty whist staying in an Indian palace.

Although I was born in Kenya, grew up in the Middle East, and have lived in the UK... I call myself Australian. I have spent most of the last 10 years travelling in Latin America, Australia, South East Asia, and Europe - from the fjords of Norway to the Catacombs of Rome.

If I had to pick one highlight, it would be waking up in a Costa Rican beach hut with baby monkeys on my balcony! If I could go around the world leaving tomorrow my journey would have to include the Trans Siberian Railway, the Cherry Blossom festival in Japan, and of course Sydney, my home city!
