Hi all!!
We are a 30/ 31 year old English couple planning a year long RTW trip from Jan 08.
We're looking to do Southern Africa (S Africa, Namibia,Botswana), SE Asia (Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Malysia), Oz, NZ and S America (Ecuador, Bolivia, Peru, Chile)
Are there any other couples planning a similar trip who fancy swapping tips & ideas as we plan and perhaps meeting up somewhere along the route?
Best regards!
Kim & Mark
good luck on the trip. me and my girlfriend have just returned from a similar trip, hong kong, oz, new zealand, fiji, chile, argentina, Bolivia and Peru.
The only reason i was writing was to check, your itinery doesn't say anything about Argentina. This is a must, it is the perfect place for backpackers, excellent hostels, food, buses, everything for a sixth of the price of here. I have never met another backpacker who hasnt loved every minute of Argentina.
