Thrill Seekers

I wasn’t surprised when Alix and Josh told me they were going native in a remote bamboo hut. They were thrill seekers, always off gallivanting somewhere or other: the Amazon, the Outback, the Mekong, the Serengeti. But then they were in an organised group where there was safety in numbers. This time they were going it alone. I asked if they thought that was a good idea, given the recent spate of violent attacks on backpackers travelling alone.
