About this blog

With 19 months' leave from work, a small amount of savings and a wanderlust that I'm sure we share with many of the readers of this blog we are embarking on a loosely planned adventure. We'll be flying to Vancouver, B.C. Canada (Simon's hometown), buying a campervan, and attempting to drive it to the southernmost point of the pan-american highway.
