What kind of traveller are you?

I'm an all-kinds-of-traveller really. I just got back from Thailand and Malaysia, Fiji, Australia and Borneo. I love cultural travel as much as adventure travel, so I'll plan trips where I sea kayak, hike or climb, but then I'll visit villages, markets and temples too.

Which place will you always return to?

I finally got to Borneo last month. I loved it and will go back. When I was there I did the diving thing, but when I go back I want to visit the interior.

What is your most memorable travel experience?

Ecuador and the Amazonian jungle is a tie with Papua New Guinea, because in both places I got to interact with native tribes that are still not too far removed from Stone Age times. I found it fascinating to be in the jungle with people who still live by the spear.
