Sewing by moonlight - Paul Crittenden

I qualified social worker in the UK in 2001. Since 2010 I have been taking time out to travel the world with my husband, visiting and learning about different communities and environments as we attempt to complete a true circumnavigation of the world in our Land Rover Defender. I write a blog for friends, family and followers of our expedition as well as regular articles in the UK based Land Rover enthusiasts' publication Land Rover Monthly. I enjoy reading and studying. I also enjoy crafts such as knitting and sewing and sports such as swimming.
