Over the last 12 months we've travelled over 60,000 miles by land, water and air visiting 24 countries around the world (this is roughly the route we took
https://secure.travellerspoint.com/member_map.cfm?user=dewinnard). It's been an amazing adventure and we've shared some very special experiences, visited spectacular places and met some wonderful people. Often the journey has been as exciting as the actual destination. The world truly is a diverse and fascinating place. We've been helped and supported by family and friends at home, helping look after things back in the UK, providing tips on where to go and what to do and sharing news from home which has really helped to lift our spirits when we've been travel weary. We've met up with family and friends around the world who have provided us with somewhere to stay, fed and entertained us. And we've met so many new friends along the way who we have been lucky enough to share some of our experiences with. Thank you to all of you.
It's not always been easy. Some of the places we've travelled to haven't quite lived up to expectations and a few have been disappointing. We've had some very long, uncomfortable journeys, got lost more than once, stayed in a few rather shabby places, fallen for the odd scam, been sick and injured but it's all been part of the adventure.
Would we do it again..........YES!
