Jamaica, a center for Caribbean piracy and skullduggery for centuries. Has anything changed?
THE MOTORCAR DIARIES
Is Cuba really a socialist paradise? Not for me to say. I love the cars though.
APOCALYPTO
Two words: UnBelizeable! Ok that’s one word. Now to butcher “Guatemala”
ONCE UPON A TIME IN MEXICO
No trip to Mexico is boring. In this story there are ancient Mayan ruins, festivals and fireworks, and the world’s dodgiest looking bar / sex den.
THE CANNIBAL ISLES
DURING THE GREAT AGE OF PACIFIC EXPLORATION THE FIJIAN ISLANDS WERE GIVEN A WIDE BERTH BY SAILORS SUCH AS CAPTAIN COOK BASED ON THEIR OMINOUS REPUTATION AS “THE CANNIBAL ISLES”. UNLIKE A LOT OF OLD SAILING STORIES IT WAS A REPUTATION WELL DESERVED. I FLEW FROM AUCKLAND, NEW ZEALAND TO LAND IN THE HEART OF FIJI, THE MAIN ISLAND CALLED VITI LEVU. I HAD FIVE DAYS TO STOP OVER HERE ON MY WAY TO MEXICO. FIVE DAYS TO AVOID ENDING UP IN A POT.
ICE ICE BABY
I’m going on an adventure! (Obligatory Middle Earth reference)
FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK
Always embarrassing when you run into Paul Hogan. Even more embarrassing when you lose another game of Knifey Spooney.
A LAND DOWN UNDER
No accusations. Just friendly crustaceans. Under the sea. I meet them all. Then eat them later.
RISING SUN
I make my attempt on Mount Fuji. I learn Mount Fuji hates me, which made things difficult.
MEMOIRS OF A GEISHA
They have ninjas here. For real. Japan wins.
HERE BE DRAGONS
A land of misty jungles and smouldering volcanoes, Indonesia is the world’s largest chain of island. Over 3,000! They’ll also make tea and not offer you any.
BOO OVER BAGAN
I wasn’t here in the right season to hop on one of the famous balloons, but Burmese beer is strong enough to get you high as it is.
