Long term solo travel on a budget.
Mongolia is one of those countries that's on everybody's bucket list, but not many people actually seem to visit.

Iceland, the land of fire and ice, is one of the most beautiful countries I've ever been to.

After driving around 1,300km north in 8 days to swim with whale sharks it was finally time to turn around and make our way back home as fast as possible so Nigel the Nissan didn't cost us any more money.
