‘INSPIRING INDEPENDENCE THROUGH TRAVEL’Despite losing my sight (registered blind/legally blind) due to a genetic version of Macular Dystrophy some 20 years ago, I still travel extensively mostly by myself. A great deal of travel is playing in blind/disabled golf events worldwide as I am one of the top blind/disabled golfers in the world having won 16 major titles in blind and disabled golf.I am posting podcasts from my travels around the world, Tibet, the USA, South Africa, the Khyber Pass in Pakistan, Atlantis resort in the Bahamas and many more.I cycled 3500 miles from Vancouver, Canada to Panama City in Panama down the Pacific coast through 8 countries in 4 months with a friend who I followed behind most of the way, follow the podcasts (cycling blind) of the whole trip over the coming months).New episodes of the epic 8 country, 3500 mile trip on a weekly basis.The aim of these podcasts is simply to inspire others who are victims of sight loss, to carry on doing something they love.....

Stranded in San Salvador

San Salvador, the capital of El Salvador is one of the most violent cities on the planet, the Foreign Office advises against all non essential travel, I managed to get stuck there for 2 days. I was travelling on the famous Tica bus from Guatemala to Nicaragua via Honduras and El Salvador with the intention of passing through Honduras and El Salvador. All the best laid plans, I ended up realising why the Foreign Office advised against all but essential travel.
