(Picture by Richard Huckvale)

For 6 weeks we called India home, for 1 week we called Japan home & now we call China home. From north to south and back again. Trains, buses, Taxi's and our feet have taken us mile upon mile, through some of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. This blog will be about the experience and the people we met who have made the whole trip so far that extra bit special.

Well, where do I start? I had heard loads of conflicting stories about the sleeper trains and if I am honest they made me into a little bit of a snob. As I was under the impression that I would not travel in any class lower than first ha ha,

Before me and Lauren left the UK to start our trip, someone told me on Facebook I am not sure who it was now but they told me to DO EVERYTHING. So when we had the opportunity to go on a days camel safari we jumped at the chance.

Well, it’s finally happened I have managed to tick one of the seven wonders of the world off my bucket list, The fact I will be able to tick more off over the next few years excites me more than anything.

OK so I know I said in my last blog that I'd not be blogging for about 15 days, Well the plan was to write one blog about our 12 day trip through India but we are seeing so much more than I thought we would so I am going to blog about every city we visit and what we did there.

Globe Trotters

20th February 2016, We officially left the UK on our 2-year globetrotting session. It has been a hectic 10 months of planning, you name it we've researched it watched it on YouTube and asked a fellow traveller about it, but we were still doing last minute packing and believe it or not photoshop before we set off to the airport.

Holi Festival Of Colours

On the 23rd March, I will be overjoyed with the fact I will be part of the ancient Hindu festival of sharing love, more commonly known around the world as Holi Festival.

The Journey Begins

This is my first ever blog, so please bare with me :) As I sit here with my entire life packed into an 80L backpack watching Lauren try and decide what clothes to take and what to leave behind it's finally hit me.
