Our trip starts in Chile, with a quick look at Mendoza, before we fly to the Galapagos for 10 days. Then off to Spain for a week's walking along the Pilgrimage Route, then to Russia, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania. To London for an easy 9 days, staying near St Pauls Cathedral as part of a home exchange. We then fly to Islamabad, where we take the Karakoram Highway to Kashgar, and follow the Silk Route to Beijing for five weeks, hopefully with a stop in Inner Mongolia for the Naadam Festival
