The “Big Trips”

My early years of travelling around the world were basically packed into two long backpack trips away. The first slowly heading east from London to Bali and the second heading south from Alaska to Tierra Del Fuego. I called these my ‘Big Trips’ and after I came back home I tried to make a couple of summary videos with some short clips that summarised these adventures into short films, in the hope they may inspire others to do something similar.

(Apologies for the low res quality, but in those days no-one even owned a video camera never mind record in HD)


Big Trip 1

At the end of Big Trip 1, whilst on Bali, I had made a concious decision to come home with some money in my pocket instead of go to Australia. I came home, saved up for 2 more years then headed off again, but this time heading west towards the Americas.
