I grew up in a small village in Wiltshire, UK, and studied English and Classics at Newcastle University before training as a journalist and working on the travel desk of a national paper.
Upon leaving school, I began undertaking various trips which became gradually more intrepid. These ranged from backpacking in West Africa to a solo cycle crossing of the Gobi desert. On each of these adventures my resolve to eventually embark on a lengthy journey grew stronger.
While in the Gobi in 2009, I started drawing wiggly lines across the small world map in the back of a guide book. These vague lines slowly grew into The Expedition which I began in July 2010.
