The Story So Far ...

We said farewell to our work friends at the RSPCA and BBC on 14 September, farewell to our families on 3 October, and set off for Africa to save cheetahs, decorate school buildings, and look around a bit. After a trip home for Christmas, we headed for South East Asia on 6 January -- where we were stunned by Qatar and Cambodia, taught novice monks in Laos, and acted as security guards at an Elephant Festival. It was back home for four weeks to look after John's dad, before we tangoed our way through five South American countries in fifteen days. We then snooped our way through New Zealand, dipped our toes into Fiji, drove-thru California and were home from home with family in Vancouver.

Now, we are home itself. Fulfilled, happy, and ready to earn the respect of our friends and family by knuckling down and earning some money once again ...

First Day

Strange day.  Awoke at 4.30am -- too excited to sleep?  Henry snoring with a streaming cold, then awake, but listless.  Up at 6am for a run.  I never do that these days. Yes, this adventure was getting off to an unexpected start.

  1. You probably need the running practice to catch those cheetahs you are saving! I hear Henry is faster than you which could be a problem. Love the blog - looks African. Good luck you two. I look forward to reading your adventures as we cope with snow in Montreal.
