Description

What's it like to actually follow your dreams? Desert Diaries is the brutally honest account of one family's move from the rainy suburbs of Manchester to the scorched wilderness of Arizona. Excitement, frustration, fear, joy, loneliness and scorpions. Quite a lot of scorpions. All life is here. For pictures, you can find me on instagram @samwalkerradio and on twitter @walkersam
