Welcome to Mapp of the World!

Eight years ago this month, I set off on my world tour and visited friends I knew living across the world. I had been made redundant in 2009 from my role as a city lawyer & was struggling to find another job. Instead of staying in London, I decided to make use of the time off and headed on my travels; paying visits to Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, the US, Peru and the Dominican Republic. A lot has happened in those eight years and I intend to republish my travel blog posts and update them!
