WELCOME TO MY TRAVELLING BLOG!! I set out on the 19th January 2010 with my first point of call being South America! We are starting off in Peru...travelling from Lima, to Nazca (huge sand dunes where we can go sandboarding etc)...to Arequipa (a town in between two active volcanoes!)...to Cusco to do the Inca Trail and Scared City...to Puerto Maldonaldo where we will be spending time in the Amazon...back to Lima and flying to Salvador, BRAZIL! We are then making our way down the East Coast and across through the Iguassu Falls and into ARGENTINA...through Buenos Aires and Maldoza and into CHILE! We are then going to NEW ZEALAND both North and South Islands and heading to the paradise that is FIJI! Then moving to AUSTRALIA where we will be doing the East Coast and over to South East Asia where we will be making our way from SINGAPORE through MALAYSIA and into THAILAND...also seeing VIETNAM, CAMBODIA and LAO! Then heading to HONG KONG and into CHINA! We will then be heading back to the homeland...but not before having a week in SRI LANKA and then touching ground back in the UK!
Well this is basic idea...but I am SURE it will change as soon as we begin! I am so excited about the adventure and will update this blog as much as I can to let you all know how I am getting on!
