This blog is now essentially an archive of my round the world trip of 2006. One hundred and twenty four days, spanning five continents in an almost constant eastward direction. Start in February for trip proper, go to the bottom of the page for the apposite quote but mostly just enjoy. The first step you take is out the door.

Justification
"The only justification was that any travel book revealed more about the traveller than it did about the country." - Riding The Iron Rooster, By Train Through China by Paul Theroux
Have you per chance bumped into a couple called Deirdre and Brendan in NZ. They are backpacking there too. They're off to South America next.
ReplyDeleteSorry mate,
ReplyDeleteHaven't at all, I've actually run into precious few Irish in NZ which makes a change from the 18-30s scene that is the East Coast of Australia.
Check ya later.
