\"Canadian<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Hi – I’m a retired Music and English teacher, sadly widowed but now continuing with the adventures my dear late wife dreamed of. Inspite of her serious illness, we toured extensively by motorhome throughout Europe and we lived life to the max. She passed away in 2016 only weeks after her last trip but in her honour, I had our little compact Manx (Isle of Man) registered motorhome shipped from Liverpool GB to Halifax, Nova Scotia in Canada. See videos of the trip here – Click.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n

Over 3 months in the summer and autumn of 2017, I crossed the massive country via the Trans-Canadian Highway to family over in British Columbia, onwards up north to the Yukon, parked beside glaciers, dipped into Alaska, seen Bears catching Salmon and made my way leisurely back East again, through the vast wilderness. You will find some videos<\/a> about the trip on this site. Made many new friends and joined in some great music along the way.\u00a0 It seemed a pity to stop as I returned to Great Britain in October 2017 and so now, I’m now a mostly full time RVer. More epic trips have followed such as round Scandianvia, the Arctic Circle and I’m always starting something new. Stay tuned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
