Dreckly; definition:

"An unspecified amount of time, similar in meaning to manana, but definitely Cornish; it means it'll happen... dreckly".

About Me

I'm a thirty-one year old Cornishman who's curious about the world and likes a bit of adventure, so with a few years of work behind me took a bit of time out in 2013/14 to experience a few countries and write about the journey.
