About Craig Corky’s Travels
Welcome to my travel blog! I’m Craig Williams, better known as Craig Corky—a 33-year-old adventurer hailing from the remote and ruggedly beautiful island of St Helena, tucked away in the South Atlantic Ocean. I grew up on an island that most people only dream of visiting, and now, I’m setting out to explore the world and share the wonders I encounter along the way.
With my thirties now here, I’ve realized there’s no better time to take the leap and start my journey around the globe. Whether it’s experiencing new cultures, exploring unique landscapes, or savoring local flavors, my mission is to dive into the world and discover as much as I can. Through this blog, I hope to inspire others to embrace the spirit of exploration, regardless of where they come from or where they’re headed.
