about: Since an early age when my family was visited by African students and neighbours told me tales of life in Zimbabwe, I have been fascinated with Africa. After an attempt at a “normal life” in England, I crossed the Sahara desert to reach paradise in southern Senegal and now live there with my family where I write, take photographs and explore the region. My first book is Squirting Milk at Chameleons: An Accidental African. It describes my journey and a year of life in Senegal and will be published by Eye books in early 2015.
