Hello Fellow Wanderers

Victim Of The Travel Bug

For as long as I can remember I have never liked staying in one place. New adventures and places have always been a high priority on my list of life. But it’s not just the “touristy stuff” that gets my attention, It’s the offbeat places, the places where you see something unexpected, or the people you meet that, if you hadn’t stopped there you would have never known existed.

Both

The Journey of My Left Foot (whilst remembering my son)

Sunday 31st July

I think of my boys

Night and day.

One is with me

One is in heaven.

So, I live in two places

Here, and where you are.

I love you both

With all my heart.

Moon and back

And all the world.
