About this blog

Life is both change and risk, or at least living is!! The biggest risk you'll ever take in life is playing it safe too much.

After spending nearly 9 years working in Ericsson I'm moving on. It wasn't all bad.. but the last four years were the definition of biggest risk.. Working in Ericsson is, in the words of the song, like being Comfotably Numb. So I'm taking a risk and starting afresh in January for a company which.. I suspect, will want my full body and soul for a while.

..but the gap between jobs will involve a another mini adventure through parts of Africa that inspire all of the senses. This time I have a new passion to explore.. one which ignited during my previous Patagonian adventure.. Photography. What will I make of it all?
