So I’ve started writing my next book. At the moment it’s called It Takes Two but that is just a working title so don’t get too attached to it. It is an odyssey through different kinds of love. And another roller coaster of an adventure: walking the Camino to Santiago; supporting a friend through leukemia; travelling to Guatemala; and exploring… Read more →
Everything is different here in Argentina. Everything. There is even a different way to mop. In this Vlog I put on my metaphorical marigolds and do some cleaning. Latin American style. This is the last Vlog I’m going to share on this Blog so if you don’t want to miss any future updates then please Subscribe to my YouTube Channel.… Read more →
Living in an apartment, in a concreted city, with strict Argentinian lockdown restrictions, makes grounding in quarantine difficult. Since Lockdown was declared in Argentina, on 20th March, I’ve been unable to get to sleep. My nervous system has kicked in and is ready to fight or run. Neither of which is necessary right now. I need it to settle, rest… Read more →
Lockdown is more strict here in Argentina. We’re not allowed to go out for exercise in quarantine. I’ve had to find another way to stay fit indoors. I needed a workout routine that could be done without any equipment or special shoes. I don’t even have a pair of trainers with me. Looking for something suitable set me off on… Read more →
With only 128 active cases of coronavirus Argentina declared lockdown would commence on 20th March. A policed enforced nationwide quarantine has come early, activating my nervous system.

The situation changed daily as we approached lockdown in Argentina. Flights from Europe and the US ceased. The British Ambassador urged all British Nationals to return to the UK. The atmosphere in the city felt different: queues formed outside of pharmacies and supermarkets so as to limit the number of people inside. Shelves emptied, which took me by surprise as… Read more →
The tango community in Buenos Aires got together and decided to close all of the milongas and tango schools until 25th March 2020 because of the Coronavirus. Tango In The Time Of Coronavirus. Many dancers come from all over the world, which puts Argentina at risk of the virus spreading further. It originally arrived from Italy when an Argentinian traveller… Read more →

National Geographic and The Guardian named one of them the most beautiful bookshop in the world. Watch this Vlog to take a visit. Please help!… Read more →
I’m very excited to share my new Vlog with you! It combines my award winning filmmaking skills with my passion for tango as well as promoting my books. It is beautifully imperfect as I’m not used to being in front of the camera and it is also logistically difficult to film myself. I have only brought my GoPro and mobile… Read more →
I still haven’t come to any clear conclusion about when a spiritual emergence becomes a psychosis or vice versa. But it was Stansilov Grof’s work that originally helped me look at my own experience from a different perspective. I definitely have spiritual experiences that are either ignored or pathologised by the mental health services and this is a form of… Read more →
