About Me

My name is James Routledge

 After a 45-year career in the Royal New Zealand Navy and Naval Volunteer Reserve, I am seeking some fresh adventures and maybe the odd challenge or two in retirement. So I’ve traded in my Navy uniform for T-shirts and jandals/thongs/flip-fops (and a compact 4WD motorhome!) while I undertake a solo 'Big Lap' of Australia for the next two and a half years or so.  I’m trying to take advantage of the freedom that retirement (and my pension) should now offer me (...and before physical decrepitude advances any further...and potential senile dementia sets in!).  I look forward to sharing my travels with family and friends.
