Around the world in 80 (+6) days

Thursday 18th February 2016 marks the day I officially become a “backpack w*nker” and embark on a few months wandering off in a bid to keep becoming a proper grown up at bay.

Despite promising myself I would never own one of those giant rucksacks, I caved, loaded up on true travel essentials (30 pairs of knickers, eyeliner, a can of Batiste…..!) and waddled like a wide eyed turtle into Gatwick departures!20160218_103839

Itinerary

Decided on a completely illogical route just to ensure maximum stress and time spent confined within a tin can in the sky (60hrs….vom! #firstworldproblem)

First stop: Oz

Sydney / Gold Coast / Melbourne

Stop 2: South East Asia

Singapore / Kuala Lumpur / Hong Kong

Third stop: China

26 days Hong Kong to Hong Kong with The Dragon Trip

Last leg: USA

1 month TrekAmerica Southern BLT tour New York – LA

And then home in May!

And so the adventure begins, as with all great explorers before me, Cook, Columbus, Ray Mears……..with a Gin and Tonic at 10.30am!
