The Wrong Way Home
Inspired by tales from the old hippie trail I hit the road and travelled overland from London to Sydney. A journey that took me through 25 countries - a fair few of them war-torn.

Regarded by many as my 'classic.' I must admit it's probably my favourite.

Skanderbeg Square, Tirane. I've just arrived in town and I'm approached by a guy wearing reflector sunnies, bright white shoes and a flash smile. He asks me if I want to sleep on his couch. I say yes, of course.
The guy's name was Mirindi. And this is my favourite photo of him. Sus clothes. Top bloke.
