Wild Posts! Starting This Friday with adventurerob.com...

Rob Fitzsimmons of adventurerob.com is our first “Wild Post” blogger: an English twenty something from Portsmouth with a penchant for all things nomading. More from him this Friday!

We’re not going to give the game away, but this one is more of a “read it and weep,” rant as opposed to a "get your eyes round that and head for the hills" type post. Saying that, we found Rob’s insights on choosing travel buddies and how to shake them off when the going gets, well, beyond the realms of sanity – invaluable.


Thankfully, if you’re thinking of travelling independently post overland tour, you’ll be able to sort the wheat from the chaff in a oner, and find out if you’re truly compatible on the continent or just plain destined for disaster when it comes to being country hopping compadres! As for hitting the street and grabbing all you can eat – expect to be under-whelmed by Rob’s spontaneous serving, our Friday post entitled, “It started with a…”. Then again, we’re sure that when he finally comes to Africa, he’ll salivating over the grub served up at Kenya’s “Meet the Carnivore” – mmmm!
