‘We are the pilgrims, Master; we shall always go that little further; beyond that last blue mountain, barr’d with snow; across that angry or that glimmering sea’: (James Elroy Flecker: ‘Hassan’)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The opportunity to travel, and to visit strange and exotic places is a great privilege, even in today’s world. When I first visited India & Nepal in 1983 the era of mass world travel, brought on by the three figures ‘747’ was only just dawning and it was natural, I suppose that I should find myself doing ‘slide shows’ for people at work, and other places. Those first ‘shows’ must have been terrible\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I found myself travelling more and more, and as my photographic skills improved so more opportunities came to put presentations together and to describe the experiences of myself and my travelling companions. A theme developed too: that of ‘pilgrimage’, whatever that means. The original single slide projector gave way to two, but they have been replaced by a single digital one; the small screen is now a big one; the private jokes are still there – if you can spot them. The talks have now evolved into a series of entitled ‘The Pilgrim Way’, in which enable the audience to travel to some of the most beautiful and thought provoking places in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
