  • Description:

    This course of lectures is a follow on from the Autumn course. It will again cover a range of sociological, cultural, historical, climatic and environmental topics. I will draw on my previous experiences as an expedition leader to showcase trips organised independently with friends in Kenya and Nepal and with friends and family in the United Kingdom. There are five lectures; 1) Kenya, an overview and introduction; 2) Kenya - the expedition 2006; 3) Nepal the expedition 2001; 4) The United Kingdom, an overview and introduction, Lands End to John O'Groats; 5) Lands End to John O'Groats 2012. The topics are interlinked and I hope to share with you some of the excitement and challenges of self organisation of an expedition as well as the journeys themselves.
