Helen and Aki's Dekai Honeymoon Da Yo!!!!
Hello!!
Big news!! Aki and I have finally made up our minds and decided to buy a round-the-world air ticket and continue travelling for another year. We have been umming and ahhing for ages about whether or not we are doing the right thing spending all that money..but we have finally concluded that what's money if not for enjoying?!!
So, we have now bought our tickets that will take us from Asia back to Europe, to Paris and Spain; then onto Central and South America for 6 months; before heading back home to Tokyo via New Zealand and OZ!!! We should arrive back home next April 2007!!!
It's so exciting but a bit nerve-racking too!! So now we are spending our last few days in Thailand, getting our fill of Pad Thai and Beer Chang before we are back in expensive countries again!!!
Chiang Mai, in the North of Thailand, is beautiful...it's been called the "Kyoto" of Thailand!!! We went to visit a village of these long-necked hill tribe people - they wear heavy bronze necklaces around there necks 24-7 and they sometimes weigh 5kg!!! This makes their shoulders drop down and their necks appear longer. We are also doing a 3day Thai massage course which we hope will help us when we walk the one-month long pilgrimage, the Camino de Santiago, across the North of Spain next month!!!
Anyway, best wishes to everyone! Keep in touch!!
Love, helen and akixxxx
