I took this photo in the Red Sea while staying at Sharm el-Sheikh. I was snorkeling but dove down to swim with the Turtle. It hung around until it got bored with me and then swam off in a few seconds.
We stayed at Taba Heights.
This Turtle is a Green Turtle.
Hi, I’m Kevin.
I was born in London, U.K. but have lived permanently in the USA since 2014. I met my wife Beth in America and our home is in North Florida, USA.
Please use the form at the bottom of the page if you would like to contact me.
I have a passion for travel, but not just going places. Personally, I like to go off the beaten track and find the real people, the real food and the real sights to see. I’m the guy that walks out of the front door of my accommodation and walks the opposite way to the other tourists (always with safety in mind).
With regard to food, I would rather go and eat where the locals eat than any Hotel Restaurant. My view of luxury is the ability to explore, not just going to the most expensive restaurant – you can do that anywhere. If you’re in Paris, for example, the best food is often down a side street in a Brasserie full of locals, most of Europe is the same.
When you think about adventure, you can find adventure anywhere. It doesn’t have to mean hiking, it doesn’t necessarily mean getting boots on, it means going to exciting places and fully experiencing where you are. A good example might be Hong Kong – get a tour of the gardens and the bird parks, go to the Horse Racing. When in Cairo, Egypt, walk around, go down inside the pyramids and see the actual tombs. Alternatively, adventure really can be an expedition – Leave your Arctic Cruise Ship in a dinghy (with a team of guides) and go see the Puffins.
No matter how you look at it, that huge vacation, the one that ticks every box and creates those huge memories, is available to you today.
Go Big Vacations is here to listen to your dreams and put together a vacation of a lifetime.

I’m currently writing my notes and stories for each of these locations and will publish them when I launch the site in the New Year 2022.
