Louisville Take 2

May 17, 2012 - Louisville, Kansas, United States
Louisville Take 2 This round we were able to see a little more of Louisville. We stayed at the Galt House Hotel downtown, which had a gorgeous view of the Ohio River. We explored the area and went out to eat a few nights. It was refreshing to eat such delicious food and then look at the bill and see it was about half of what it would have been in NYC.     Iceland Farm: After dancing around horses for a few weeks, we were dying to ride one. We went to visit Gudmar’s farm and learned how...

Tigers, Temples and crazy Tuk tuk drivers

May 12, 2012 - Chiang Mai, Thailand
On thursday night we set off for Chiang Mai. This was the first time I had been north of Bangkok in Thailand - when I visited four years ago we went down south and did the islands so this time I as excited to see a whole new side of Thailand. And we certainly did. Within an hour of arriving in Chiang Mai I had decided that I loved it. After checking int our htel we set off for the night bazaar nearby and had a lovely wander round before grabbing some food. I also had my first experience of a...

So very close

May 16, 2012
I am 20km from Santiago.  We, that is Franz and I, will stop in Monte Grozo today - 15km from here.  Leaving 5km tomorrow morning to walk into Santiago. It will be the day of Asuncion.  A holiday and should be a big deal at the Cathedral - big ball of incence and all.  Like really big.  Takes 6 guys to swing it above the congragation´s heads. Seems strange after so long a time just walking. I hope to tell a tale or two this afternoon if there is computer access. Look forward to...

Bosnia and Herzegovina

May 15, 2012 - Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina
I'm keeping my promise! Selcuk ended up being surprisingly great! I was at the hostel with my friend Azzah and we met some wicked people. For my full day there, I went on a guided tour of Ephesus, the temple of Artemis, and the Ephesus museum. It was going to be just me on the tour, which would be great value for my money but probably a little awkward. I was waiting for pickup and another guy at the hostel decided to come. I was really glad- he was a lot of fun and the three of us had a great...

Tishomingo State Park

April 7, 2012 - Red Bay, Alabama, United States
  We arrived at the Tiffin Motorhome Factory in Red Bay, AL for a few repairs on Sat., April 7.  So yes, we were there for Easter.  They were able to get us in on Wed. and finished all the repairs in one day.  The bill was very reasonable and the service was great, so we were happy campers!  Then we moved to Tishomingo State Park in Tishomingo, MS for a week and a half.  It is a beautiful state park with large RV sites on a lake.  Our site was large enough for at least four RV's, so we...

Spoilt for Choice in Bangkok

May 11, 2012 - Bangkok, Thailand
Arriving in Thailand could not have been more different to arriving in Australia. For a start, my brother Ed was waiting for me at Bangkok airport, and so I could succumb to flight tiredness and let him take charge of getting us back to his place. When you are travelling alone you can never really completely switch off, in case something goes wrong or changes suddenly, so it was nice to finally be able to. Secondly Bangkok and Melbourne, where I started my Aussie adventures could not be more...

Palenque y Agua de Azul et un peu de tout

May 13, 2012
Bon, le chiapas c aussi ça, je vous mets les photos pour que vous vous rendiez compte. Là c'est à 10h de route A/R en collectivos (serré, serré). Cool pour la baignade mais trop de touristes pour moi et chaud, chaud, chaud !!!!! Mais bon apparemment le Chiapas c'est blindé d'endroits comme ça, il doit donc bien y en avoir avec un peu moins de monde ! En fait aujourd'hui baisse de moral et fatiguée. Dommage c'est mon anniversaire. J'en ai raz le bol du monde, monde dans la maison, ...

First Impression

suite

May 12, 2012
je reprends mon article car j'étais posée dans un jardin et tout d'un coup méga averse, en moins de 2 minutes la rue est devenue une vraie rivère. C'est le début de la saison des pluies ici et apparemment ça fait pas semblant. Les trottoirs ici sur super hauts c chiant mais on comprend mieux pourquoi quand il pleut. Bon je disais au marché vous demandez un poulet, ils vous le présentent vivant et lui coupe la tête devant vous, au moins c'est sûr c'est frais. J 'ai déjà goutté des...

San Cristobal de las Casas

May 11, 2012
Je reprends mon écriture pour vous parler un peu de la ville. San Cristobal de las Casas se situe à 2200 m d'altitude au coeur de la région montagneuse et verdoyante du Chiapas. La ville, capitale historique du mouvement zapattiste attire pas mal de monde, notemment des français, militants altermondialistes, jeunes baroudeurs, touristes étrangers, volontaires, bref une vraie petite communauté et ça se ressent quand on se ballade. Au milieu de tous ça mais heureusement les plus...

Tijd om zelf de cowboy uit te hangen

May 11, 2012 - Vernon, Canada
  Hee allemaal!   Er is hier veel gebeurd de laatste tijd! Te veel om op te noemen, maar ik ga een poging wagen. Afgelopen weekend was er natuurlijk De Evaluation, hét evenement waar hier al maandenlang naartoe gewerkt werd. De maandag voor het hele gebeuren druppelden de eerste mensen (welke veelal letterlijk vrachtwagenladingen paarden bij zich hadden) binnen en naarmate de evaluation dichterbij kwam werd het drukker en drukker. Dit leverde wachtrijen voor de badkamer op en aan tafel...

Merhaba!

May 10, 2012 - Selçuk, Turkey
So I know I had promised better updates, and that I have failed (so far). I made it to Isanbul is the first piece of news I guess! Had some flight issues and got in later than planned but the point is that I got there! My first bit of time in the city was great! I did a lot of the touristy things... Visiting the Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern.... For me, Hagia Sophia was the best. I had 'a moment' there. I cant wait go share photos! I also went (twice) to the grand bazaar and the...

A temporary goodbye to the land Down Under!

May 7, 2012 - Sydney, Australia
 I'm sitting in Sydney airport, waiting for my fight to Bangkok, trying not to cry at the prospect of leaving Australia. I have literally had the most incredible time here and cannot believe I'm leaving. But I refuse to say goodbye...see you later is more like it, because I know that Australia, along with New Zealand (I really can't chose between them) is somewhere I will definitely be coming back to. Hopefully soon! Its definitely fair to say that there have been ups and downs during my...

Returning to the Outback

May 10, 2012 - Auckland, New Zealand
Mike and I are currently sat in Auckland airport waiting for our flight to Melbourne, Australia. That's right...we gave up on our dream of working in NZ and decided to head to Australia (return for me..first time for Mike). We finished travelling the North Island of NZ - had a great time but spent far too much and found living in a van rather uncomfortable after a while. We are heading to Melbourne for a few days before heading up the coast to stay with Allyson & Don again. From there on...

Un squat au Chiapas !

May 10, 2012
Apres un tres long voyage me voilà enfin arrivée a demeure ! et bien j'aurais pu appeler ce blog au moins pour les 3 premiers mois un squat au chiapas bref on est loin des mojotos et de la salsa. D'ailleurs les mojotos je les ai testé et ils sont pas très forts, on pourrait en boire des litres (ce que j'ai fait, vous vous en doutez). Je vais vous mettre des photos de la casa où vivent une vingtaine de volontaires dont YO, français, belges, allemands, italiens, 2 américains et...

Annapurna Trek - Throng Phedi, Throng La, Kalapani

April 24, 2012 - Kalapani, Nepal
Day 9 and guess what another day trekking, just around 5 hours today though we also did some more preparation for our ultimate goal of this trip......the Pass which we will be crossing tomorrow. Am I nervous...hell yes would be the answer to that. It is going to be the hardest day yet! As we arrived in Thorong Phedi to our tea house called New Phedi it had started snowing again, but only this time it was heavy and it was laying almost immediately. We had to do an additional trek up the...

Annapurna Trek - Pisang, Manang and Yak Karka

April 21, 2012 - Yak Kharka, Nepal
Ok so the updating of my blog as regulary as I liked is not going to plan! As I mentioned before phone and internet service throughout Nepal was a little hit and miss. So the last update I gave was 3 days into our Annapurna Trek through the Himalayas in Nepal. Day 5 of our tour is a trek to a village called Pisang....yes lots of jokes about the name of that village as I am sure you can imagine. We start off for a fairly long days trekking a lot of which is level ground not to much 'a little...

Le canal du Rhone au Rhin

May 8, 2012 - Dole, France
  We are now moored at Dole.   Anyone who has moored at Dole will know what that means!   The moorings are at a point in the waterway where there is a lot of current and the pontoons are very short.   We had several attempts at mooring at right-angles to the river with the current pushing us sideways, with some well-meaning Dutchmen shouting instructions urging us to pass our lines to them, whilst we were swept along way out of our desired position.   David compared this experience...

This is the end, my only friend, the end.

May 8, 2012 - Adelaide, Australia
The flight to London was pretty scenic, flying over snow capped mountain ranges (the Alps I believe), but the weather on our arrival was typical London - grey, cold and very wet. Our luggage was fairly heavy by this stage of the trip, so the train journey from the airport and the journey with the bags on the tube was far from enjoyable, in fact it was quite hard yakka. As we were changing to the tube we needed to take us to Russell Square, which is where we need to go, we heard an...

Golden Week 2012 - Part 3: Seoul

May 8, 2012 - Seoul, South Korea
Day 6 We had checked the train times and prices the day before and looked at our remaining money and made the decision to travel to Seoul in first class on the bullet train, something we could never afford to do in Japan.  It was fun and felt like a real treat, especially when we discovered all the free snacks , bottles of water, eye-masks etc. that you could help yourself to. We arrived at Seoul station and immediately felt that Seoul was different again from Busan.  It was smarter and...

Golden Week 2012 - Part 2: Busan

May 8, 2012 - Busan, South Korea
Day 3 We woke up early to go to the ferry port to catch our jet foil to Busan in South Korea.  It took a while to get there and the check in queue was huge, but we made it on time and were excited about going to Korea.  We slept for most of the journey, which was only about 3 hours and then arrived in Busan in time for lunch.  We found our hostel, chatted with the friendly owner who had loads of recommendations for us and then headed out for lunch.  Ed was excited about Korean food...

Golden Week 2012 - Part 1: Fukuoka

May 8, 2012 - Fukuoka, Japan
Golden Week this year was a nine day holiday, so to make the most of it we decided to head to South Korea.  As Japan’s closest neighbour, we’d been meaning to visit for some time but never got round to it, and weekend trips seemed short and not really that convenient.  To make it a little bit different we decided to take a slightly unusual route to Korea. Day 1 On Sunday morning we got up bright and early and flew to Fukuoka in Kyushu (still in Japan).  Unfortunately we had a bit of...

Bali - Nusa Lembongan

January 20, 2012 - Nusa Lembongan, Indonesia
We flew to Bali via Kuala Lumpur, where we spent one night and just had time to check into a hotel, go see the Petronas Towers, have something to eat and then grab a few hours sleep before our flight on to Bali early the next morning. We arrived at Bali airport and stepped outside into the heat and crowds of people.  We took a terrifying taxi ride to the port of Sanur where we left our bags at the boat company's office and went to change some money and relax in a beach side cafe for our...
