Basically this is the deterioration and regeneration of one man on a long trip, with a photo taken every 3 days on average.
There were no aspirations of a travelers image, just an experiment in change through a new found freedom from shaving and needing to look society’s version of “presentable”. Moreover, I just could not be bothered to carry a razor or anything that I could use to cut hair apart from a blunt penknife and paying for hair cuts didn’t fit work in the spirit of extending our travels as much as possible.
So this is kind of experiment on how I would look, combined with inspiration from an artist who drew his own self portrait everyday for a year, combined with a money saving excercise.
STARTING FROM THE TOP…
… so there we are businesman to caveman and back again in 2 years.

Excellent ! Is the man at the top of the page the same as the one I met in Omkareshwar ????
I hope you both are fine and relaxing somewhere down south… Or, er, can’t remember where you were heading to !

Yea Dan mate, it is funny to think about all the times I randomly thought “shit need to take the picture a day, which has turned into a picture every 2 days. But that is fine as I am sure no website needs over 400 pictures of me on….. even mine!
