Planet Kapow 36 : Mompox to Medellin
Posted on October 6, 2011 | 1 CommentTHE WILD: backcountry of Colombia is where the land really comes to life, flooding the senses with shades of green I hadn’t thought possible. In the dusty streets of Bosconia we are physically grabbed by a couple of men and dragged bodily toward a minivan... -

Posted on August 27, 2011 | 3 CommentsSO HERE: we are, in a 4WD driven by a lanky Panamanian with a gold tooth cut into the shape of the Playboy Bunny. We were up at four o’clock, giddy with excitement, and even though he was two hours late to pick us up... -

Posted on August 6, 2011 | 4 CommentsTENSIONS RISE: and drop away constantly within the group; we’re only four, after all, and we’ve been traveling a long time together – seven months, now, for Adam and I, five for the girls. And while traveling alongside three of your best friends can be... -
Planet Kapow 31 : Mombacho Volcano to Big Corn Island
Posted on July 16, 2011 | 5 CommentsMANAGUA IS: full of ugly steel sculptures draped in coloured fairy lights.

Posted on June 18, 2011 | 2 Comments“PASSPORTS, PLEASE,”: says the Honduran official brusquely. We’re sitting on the Nicaraguan border at six in the morning, after an epic bus journey across Honduras, from the thick jungle of the north through the lakes and plains of the centre to the dust and traffic... -
Planet Kapow 29 : Utila to the Bottom of the Sea
Posted on May 26, 2011 | 3 CommentsPEOPLE HAD: been spouting excited stories about Utila as far back as Zacatecas, Mexico, and we had come to imagine a lethargic island of sandy streets and wild, all-night parties. But first impressions aren’t great; from the moment we set foot ashore we are pushed...
