I'm Andy - I started travelling back in 1999 and fell in love with it straight away! Since then I have been to 103 different countries all over the world and visited every continent except for Antarctica. I love to visit places that are a bit off the beaten track - some of my favourite places include Central Asia, West Africa, India and Iran.
