Into the Blue Travel

I am not a morning person, but diving is the one thing I don't mind waking up early for. Here is a shot of our 06:25 sunrise dive where we were treated to a school of 11 manta and where I completed my deep specialty down to 40 metres. Have an awesome day! ?

In the last 4 months many people have asked me “Adam, what made you come travelling?” And the answer, put simply, is this: If you spend your entire life living in the same place your understanding and perception of the world is limited to the circles you mix with and the stories you are fed by the media. When you travel, the more countries you visit the more of your biases are washed away - and we all have prejudices to some degree whether we are conscious of it or not. You develop an understanding and appreciation of other nationalities; you hear their stories and are given a unique insight into the challenges faced by their society. You begin to think not just from a national viewpoint but from an international perspective. You develop a global consciousness and begin see the bigger picture. It has become so vividly clear that nationalities and races truly are a social construct manipulated by the elite to control the proletariate. In order for us to move forward as a collective we need to wake up and focus on the things that unite us, not divide us. Travelling is not just important, it is essential for the progression of humanity and preservation of our planet. So if you are sitting in your office right now dreaming of swimming in waterfalls, climbing volcanoes and travelling the world you have the power to make it happen. Sacrifice a few months of getting sh*t-faced at the weekend, book your flight and get out here!

Second volcano in 24 hours: this time we woke up at midnight, trekked for 2 hours and had to wear gas masks to protect against the toxic sulphur gas - not your average Sunday morning!

We visited the killing fields and genocide museum in Phnom Penh this afternoon. 1.7 million people were killed by the Khmer Rouge in a N**i style "cleansing" of society in pursuit of communist idealism. One disturbing ideology was the following "To cut the grass take out the roots" meaning to kill an individual is not enough, the entire family must be terminated

Today we ventured into the Cu Chi tunnels, just outside Ho Chi Minh City. The tunnels are a lasting legacy commemorating the resilience and resourcefulness of the Viet Cong during their battle with invading US troops in 1968
