Behind the journeys

My Moroccan trips include desert walks, mineral collecting and journeys through food and culture. In Kyrgyzstan I organise horse-riding and cultural programmes; in Ladakh I combine trekking with monasteries and villages. On photography trips we leave more time for pictures, workshops and encounters.
