Simon (a friend from work) arrived in Melbourne on the 10th and went to see the sights of the city. We hired a car to drive south to Wilsons Promontory to see Squeaky Beach (the sand makes a squeak when you walk over it!). The following day we drove ...

3 weeks to go in London
Starting this off 9 months into the trip probably seems a bit strange but I've decided that I would like to have some type of memory like this that is official rather than lots of bits and pieces and scribbled bits of paper all over the place when I do...

Nov 2006 : The Devil in Tassie? Pfff, même pas peur !
Hi guys, Here I am again. And this time I thought I might just give it a go and try to write this in English. Of course, it’s not gonna be as hilarious as the usual stuff (oui, mes chevilles vont très bien, merci de vous inquiéter) but I’l...

So I didn't miss my flight...but actually I almost did. The first leg of the journey was to fly from SeaTac into LAX. If you fly on frequent flyer miles, you are one step above livestock. They won't give you a confirmed seat, even though I booked th...

Round the World Trip 2006/07
We arrived in La Paz on Thursday afternoon. It is absolute mayhem here! Buses, taxis, combis and people everywhere. Crossing the road is a challenge in itself. We went to an Asian restaurant for our farewell meal on Thursday night. Having not had a cur...

So we took the overnight train from bangkok to Chang Mai which took about 13 1/2 hrs. Sounds colosal but as we were in bed for about 8 hrs of it it was not so bad. I was up in the top bunk which wasnt that great to be honest. Probably ok for a normal s...
