In 2002 I began to search out epals who wanted to write and possibly meet up.

In 2003 I met my first epal overseas and developed a passion for travel and for writing.

In 2008 I embarked on an epic world tour taking me to over 100 cities in 30 cities around the world.

In 2009 I decided to chase love overseas (for the final time) and relocated to Beijing in China.

Despite my best hopes and dreams I came back alone and disillusioned with long-distance-relationships.

Having given up on life in Beijing I returned to the UK and once again found employment in a London property firm.

I have currently just finished work on the first part of my travel memoirs, as well as the accompanying photobook, and am currently embarking on the concluding part.

• DickonSpringate: Is about to take down some photos of friends gone by from my living room wall ... tis a sad day!
• DickonSpringate: Life>the sum of its parts, and communication>the sum of its words. If you live on the internet then you are killing the art of conversation!
• DickonSpringate: No longer affiliates with blogger - their automated spam filters and zero tolerance policy have made them impossible to work with any longer
• DickonSpringate: Is fast becoming a internet-hater, but being honest its not the technology but the nanny-security protocols and auto-filters thats doing it
• DickonSpringate: #Blogger SPAM filter sucks. I am fed up with it blocking my newly created blogsites. All I can say is that they are a bunch of Cucking Funts
