Drop Zone – The Tallest Slide in Africa

I take a deep breath, cross my arms and slide forward.

It’s an exhilarating blur. I’m flying down so fast.

Then I feel it.

At first it’s uncomfortable. And then… pain.

Orchids Festival – Explore Kew Gardens

The 23rd annual Orchids Festival at Kew Gardens has kicked off and it has transformed southwest London into a tropical paradise. For those of us who can’t really afford a holiday right now, this stunning display will treat you to taste of Thailand’s vibrant plant life, culture and even food.

Shark Diving on the Aliwal Shoal

Durban’s coastline at sunrise is easily one of the most beautiful sights you’ll ever see and is home to some truly amazing creatures. With the Aliwal Shoal just a few kilometres off the coast, it’s a shark diving hot spot. If you’re looking to tick things off your bucket list then this is the place for you.

“You know you’ve got a crisp on your top…”

Let me set the scene for you. It’s October 2016 and I’m (sort of) newly graduated and living up life at home.

“You know you’ve got a crisp on your top…” my sister said to me, as she came home from work to find me lying on the sofa. I looked down and, lo-and-behold, a lone crisp was left on my top from the pile of crisps I had put there earlier for easy access. You know, so I didn’t have to hold a ginormous bag of crisps while lying down.

“Oooh yeah!” I replied, excited as I popped the last crisp into my mouth.

Welcome to the Adventure!

Welcome to my site! My creation, which I’ve planned since I was 15 when I made my YouTube Channel and proceeded to never upload anything. So here I am, 9 years later, finally determined enough to stop procrastinating. Better late than never, right?

Let me tell you, this is scarier than facing off a deadly spider or throwing yourself off a 106m platform falling into a football stadium. But not as scary as growing old knowing I was too lazy to do what I love – write.

I hope you’re all as excited as I am (probably not) to hear about all my adventures, some of them glamorous and some of them… decidedly not. From shark diving to walking into lamp posts, I’ve done the lot. You might even pick up some handy tips along the way.

So join me and enjoy the adventure!
