So, I go traveling on Friday 20th March 2015 which is in 189 days. I'm already counting down the days left of work (125 working days).

Was at Al's on Sunday having a BBQ (which took nearly 3 hours to light I should add!) and Duncan said I should do a travel blog, specifically a video blog because it could be funny.

Mum called this trip my "quarter life crisis", can't quite decide if I agree or not! But, I thought would be an appropriate name for my trip. I haven't had a diary type blog before so I'm trying to get some practise in. This site is free to hold a basic blog (100 photos max, no videos), but charges 30 euros a year to upgrade, which I reckon I'll do when I actually leave Maidenhead...or possibly for Dubai & Hong Kong for practise.

As of today my flights from London to Amman on March 20th to Bangkok on July 12th, and all flights in between, are booked. My tours are confirmed in Jordan, India, Indochina and Central America with Intrepid (www.intrepidtravel.com) and Trans Himalayan with Dragoman (www.dragoman.com).

I'm currently working on what I want to do between August 27th in Bangkok to November 7th in Mexico City...
