Back up. Back up. Back up.

As travellers all we have of our adventures are the memories and 50 years from now all we’ll have of those memories are the photos and videos we take. Back up, back up, back up, the three rules my dad has always told me when it came to saving photos and files; this is also the … Continue reading Back up.
