Backpacking Beyond Boundaries is the story of a young man who puts
his career on hold in search of adventure and the discovery of his
inner being. He leaves South Africa in 1990 while Nelson Mandela is
still in prison and South Africa ruled by a white minority
government. His travels take him through 35 countries and cultures
as far afield as South East Asia where he spends one year; exotic
islands of Thailand, hitchhiking through Malaysia, charming beauty
of Sri Lanka, overland through India into Nepal and finally back to
Thailand. He also buses through Morocco and into the Sahara Desert.
In Turkey he joins a group of 11 fellow backpackers and travels
across the country. Behind the Iron Curtain he visits East Germany
and the Berlin Wall, Czechoslovakia, Poland and Hungary seeing
communism at work. In 1996 he returns to a free South Africa, one
now with equal rights and called the Rainbow Nation, before
choosing a new life in Canada. In 2003 he travels to Namibia and
reconnects with his army past. And in 2005 he makes a special
journey to Mozambique with two army friends to see the prison where
one of them was held captive.
