Have you ever wanted to explore?
Andy Explores is a website dedicated to seeking out adventures and experiences wherever they might be lurking. Unconventional and often embarrassing, these are the stories which Andy hopes will serve to inspire others to have their own adventures, break down preconceptions about the less visited corners of our planet, and make people laugh, whilst hopefully also proving that exploring the world isn't something which is limited to the rich or the highly skilled.
"Adventuring can be for the ordinary person with ordinary qualities, such as I regard myself" - Edmund Hillary
Andy has spent a year living in the world’s fourth smallest country, followed the footsteps of his Great Grandfather through the deserts of Sudan, and traversed the African continent solely by public transport; he continues to travel to out of the way places, undertaking different types of expedition in search of adventure and more stories.
In 2018 Andy Explores was nominated for the prestigious Edwards Stanford Travel Blog of the Year award.
"Andy's blog is realistic and funny. His articles cover a wide variety of fascinating places and activities, with some great travel anecdotes" Edward Stanford Judges

Loud, uncomfortable, rusty, dangerous, and slow; local buses typically don’t have the best reputation when it comes to a reliable choice of adventure transport. However, given the choice between a busy and ramshackle public bus, or a spacious, air-conditioned private one, my heart will only be drawn one way…towards the more exciting and adventurous option…
