After years of saying I'm going to go travelling the world to day I filled in an application form and sent a cheque for £2,020 (which reminds me to transfer money from one account to the other) to do Work Australia for 12 months with BUNAC and this also gives me a return ticket via Auckland, Fiji and LA on the return so I can spend 4/5/6 months travelling elsewhere. Very soon after posting the application form I then bought a pair of tevo sandals, as if figured summer time in Australia would be too hot even for me to wear shoes.
Provided my application goes through ok I leave on the 2nd November. And thus with the application form, and oh so big cheque and the pair of sandals it all begins - the sandals means there is no turning back - it got serious when I bought sandals...
It's a little scary really, to think I won't see anyone I know for around 17 months, I won't see Cadbury’s chocolate for 17 months and I won't see the new series of Doctor Who for 17 months.
I think it's going to be an amazing adventure I just hope that it turns out OK, and I'm not resting too much on this being successful. At times it feels like I'm running away, don’t know if that makes sense to anyone but it does. Other times it feels amazing when I think of what could be ahead of me.
Anyway after those musings, my posts on travelling have begun and will continue until I finish travelling in around 20 months time. I have also started a personal journal (not diary that is too feminine a term for me) and at the end I will combine the two (blog and journal) and write a book and sell it and make lots of money... maybe, hopefully, doubtfully.

Personally I think the lack of Dr Who is the worst part. Have a fabulous adventure.
Have fun! Definitely work your way to internet cafes when you can, want to see what youve been upto!
