Given that I spend most of my nights abroad surrounded by clouds of mosquitos, I didn't really know where to start. While Marina has certainly never complained about my long absences and bizarre holiday ideas, I wanted to impress her this time with a super-luxurious break. It was time to make amends and take Marina to a rather more conventional paradise. I have also recently finished filming a new series, Extreme Dreams for BBC2, in which I take inexperienced adventurers on extraordinary journeys.Īnd so the long and short of it is that I spent eight months of my first year of married life alone and sleeping under canvas in the bush, while my wife remained at home.

I lived for a year on the remote Scottish isle of Taransay for the TV show Castaway, have visited the remote islands of St Helena, final prison of Napoleon, Pitcairn, where the Bounty mutineers ended up, and Tristan Da Cunha, and have rowed across the Atlantic Ocean - naked. In my capacity as a travel writer and broadcaster, I have been to some unusual places. My wife, Marina, discovered this when I whisked her away from our balmy Portuguese wedding to a honeymoon on the gale-lashed Outer Hebrides.Īnother recent 'romantic' weekend involved entering my wife into a 60-mile ice-skating marathon across Sweden's frozen fjords, and on our last summer holiday, she and the dogs joined me on a ten-day trip drifting down a Scandinavian river in the pouring rain on a homemade timber raft that eventually sank. When it comes to picking holidays, my taste has always been a little alternative.
