The one bag kitlist
This is a top pick! I will be traveling with one 35ltr backpack, I'm happy with the size for now.. it's small enough to keep from separation and more secure during transits where it should hopefully be on my lap, take to the loos still on my back and to look smug infront of ...
To Travel or not to travel, that is the question
This is a top pick! ... weather, better beaches and for the females, unending perving on surfing bodies. After a year of this hardship they will probably come home and melt anonymously straight back into their old way of life. For a few of us (weird/mad?) people, travel ...
Leaving party
This is a top pick! This post is just a quicky to go through the things that i've down recently.. First what came along was the drugs, not the recreational ones.. i just say no! but the dosages that are needed to help keep back all the dangerous diceases that are out ...
The ticket is booked!
This is a top pick! ... i'm ready to pick up my backpack and head off. Whilst still in London I've got to sort out and tie up a few loose ends at home, i'm hoping i can do these all within the next week or so, once that's done I'll need to sort out some leaving do and then the ...

This is a top pick! ... thing for sure is that our next flight is from Bangkok to Hong Kong then overland thru China to Beijing before flying home. In between Bali and Bangkok we hope to visit Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos but not necessarily in ...

Poem: When you're happy and you know it
When you're happy and you know it When there is nowhere in the world you'd rather be. When you realize the true value of a smile. When you see yourself reflected in the eyes of a child. When you turn away from tradition towards individuality. When ...
Testing the system!!
This is just us trying out the system before we go as we're not too sure on all this blogging stuff - being 20th century people as our grandchildren informed us yesterday. John and Jeannie are the only ones in a position to look into this so far so if ...
visa relief
We are celebrating the arrival of our 3 class 676 visas this week - quite an ordeal just waiting and wondering if our trip will be over before its even begun- yes whoever you speak to the minute you say "we havn't got our visas yet " there is ...
Not long to go now...
Ok, this is my first entry so I apologise if it is a bit rubbish. I'm just trying to get my head round this sort of thing before I go. Speaking of which, we leave in 8 weeks which is a bit scary as I've still got loads to sort out! Anyways, here is ...

Setting up for a busy year

Trip Advisor Day
Just been checking on Trip Advisor where the best web site might be to get attraction tickets online. Always seems to be a bit of a lottery but may end up using themeparkticketsdirect.com as many people seem to have used them in the past and recommend ...
Home again!
... friend and Nan were also there as a surprise, holding balloons!! Mum and Dad had also put balloons and welcome home banners outside the house!! Mixed feelings about being back, the experience in South America was such an overwhelmingly positive one, ...
3 days to go...
Well today I have the dull task of finally putting all my kit together and packing it in my rucksack without the usual get-out-clause of shoving everything that's too big or heavy for the hold into the hand luggage! I'm off to London early tomorrow ...
Not ready for the big off
Having done a bit of research I've found this travel blog and because of its interactive features, maps, email notifications etc. I decided to switch to it from spaces.live! Sorry if this throws you! I've also had to cheat about the departure date so ...
Skara Brae, A Neolithing Play Ground
We didn't travel to the Orkney Islands to see a farm, but to see the prehistoric ruins near the Skail Home Farm—Skara Brae. The Orkney Islands are like an amusement park of Neolithic sites and this is just one of hundreds found across the islands. ...

Leaving Parties

41 days to go
Did I say this was going to be fun? Well, we're getting closer to departure-day but unfortunately it feels like the van isn't. I mentioned last time we were going to completely redo the insides and convert our bed to a 'rock & roll' type. Well, ...
The Prodigal Son Returns...
Well I made it back - Only 268 days after I left Heathrow, I was back on English soil. I can say without doubt, that was the best 9 months! I've had a complete blast; I've laughed all the way, made some fabulous friends who I will keep in contact with, ...
