Oberg Hey Katie! Well done, you are doing so well! Making new friends will prove to be the toughest yet most rewarding part of your journey. Sitting in an office in Leatherhead will never challenge you in ways that a trek along the east coast of Australia will. So many of us have travelled with boyfriends and friends - you're doing it for yourself darling and that is so inspiring! I am SO proud of you. You're amazing! Lots of love and missing you so much xxxx

Tordy Hey lady, Still loving the up-dates and photos ! : ) and you just keep making me giggle at everything you are doing. This is mainly due to the fact that Gemma did something ridiculous in most of these places and it brings back such funny memories ! Meeting new people every day is exhausting. I felt like I should just have a sign telling people what I was doing and where I had been coz I got sooo bored of telling the same stories ! god im miserable !! ha ha xx big kiss from the Dubai peeps

Sarah P Hallo you So pleased you're still enjoying your travels. Love reading all about what you're up to and knowing you are safe and happy is good to know! It can be hard meeting new peeps every day, but you'll survive! How much longer are you planning to stay out there for, as you mentioned about getting some work? You still coming home for your birthday in Aug?? Sending you a big huggle and lots of love... keep us posted as to your whereabouts and fun :o) Sarah xx
