what to do next

I am up north at the moment doing a few odd jobs for my Dad. I will be on my way to Nepal soon and then to India.

Been an interesting last 3 months, not really gone as planned but that's life.

I'm not sure how the next few months will work out, bit of an unknown, been a very strange year so far, very twilight zone. Still having fun but getting a few challenges to deal with.

Maybe Kathmandu is the right place to go for a while, kama!

I will be trekking in the Himalayas and get to see the Taj so can't complain, but I probably will :-)

Places I walked to/from in Cornwall

Polzeath Beach on a bank holiday weekend
Port Quinn
Port Isaac top and bottom
I managed to walk all the way from Tintagel to Newquay, not in one go but over a couple of weeks in August. The weather was good fortunately as I had no proper gear to wear, only shorts and a 'T' shirt. The worst bit is Tintagel to Port Isaac, very hilly and the coastal path is not that clear in places.

Cornwall sunsets




Was fortunate to see some really great sunsets whilst sitting on the beach or in a bar. Miss the heat of Sri Lanka, as soon as the sun sets it's cold here, jumper on.

Cornwall Coastal Path




Views of some of the coastal path north of Polzeath, did some tombstoning. That's jumping off the cliffs, not great heights only 3-4 metres but good fun. Water is freezing, Atlantic, really need a wet suit on.
