So this is it, hard to believe our adventure is over.
Exactly 450 days
16 countries
5 continents
29 flights and
33 different modes of transport to get us back here to Dublin.
We were even millionaires in 2 countries!
(Unfortunately Ireland isn't one of them)
Alot of people have asked us what were the best bits, here's the top three:
1
2. Moreno Glacier, Argentina, South America
3. Microlight flight over Victoria Falls, Zambia, Africa
But for us the best bit and what we will remember is the kindness of others, to name but a few:
- Our friends Ian, Shirley, Amy, Damian, Ali and Damo in Melbourne.
- The Melbourne Murphys
- Stephen, Sophie, Mrs Pill, Tim and Tchilla in Brisbane
- Eugene in Perth
- Lara in Zimbabwe
- Andrew and The Saundersons in South Africa
We have learned that when you are far away from home there is nothing better than spending time with people who welcome you into their homes and show you places through local eyes.
One other person does deserve a mention, James Murphy who we hung out with in South America. Without him, we never would have heard of travelpod and you wouldn't be reading this now 15 months on. James, the race is still on!
So until the next trip, happy travelling to you all and keep in touch.
