Well it all began when...

...one of my friends decided to go live in London and it took him 6 weeks from the decision to actually get there. That is pretty fast. So I decided if he could do it, I could do it. So I started planning on going to London and Europe because I have always wanted to go to Paris and Venice. But then I realised that I wanted to go to Canada too. So for a while I was tossing up between Canada and Europe and the I realised that I could do both in an around the world trip!! So after a fair bit of planning and a lot of emailing (it is amazing what can be arranged with technology today!) I was finally at the airport on 27th Dec 2005. This is me at the airport waiting to board. So hold on for the ride!!
