Horny animals with big teeth
Ey up all! It’s been a few weeks since Viv’s last post and about time for another update from the road… We didn’t do an awful lot in Durban, just chilled out and spent a bit of time on the internet, got a visa for Mozambique, got lost on a bus and ate a curry […]

Floods and roaches
It sounds like something biblical doesn’t it? We’ll it’s not all that bad, quite entertaining when you look back! A lot has happened since we left gorgeous Cape Town. Our first stop on our way up the coast was Nature’s valley. It absolutely poured it down and we spent most of our time cowering under […]

Cape Town
Apologies all for the length of time it has taken us to get round to writing a post, we’ve just been in a lot of places where the internet is either non-existant or prohibitevely expensive, couple that with needing to prioritise sorting out fundraising for our voluntary work (still time to donate!) has resulted in […]

We are both very excited indeed and it’s thanks to a couple of weeks chilling with Rightee that the travel magic’s back! Under our collective, Mary style, name of VAJ (Viv, […]

Chilling in Chiang Mai
What have we been up to in the last couple of weeks? Erm, not a lot to be honest. After over 7 months of fairly fast-paced travelling we decided that we were long overdue a bit of a break to slow things down a bit. The three days of travelling to get to Chiang Mai […]

Laos – Straight to the roundup
Sorry guys, I did half write a post a couple of weeks ago but then managed to get a mystery illness and didn’t quite finish it. In truth the pair of us have had sensitive stomachs for our entire time in Laos. We put it down to the heavy handed use of spices. There’s nothing […]

Vietnam Round up
No prizes for guessing that we really enjoyed it! We spent almost a month there and will be back like a shot if the opportunity presents itself in the future. The usual roundup’s been harder to write this time as there were so many good things it’s been difficult to group them. GOOD Hanoi and […]

Guns and goats
Since Viv last wrote we’ve left Vietnam and now find ourselves in a the laid-back capital of Asia, Laos. We should fit right in! And so to bring you up to date on our antics since Viv last wrote…. We left Saigon and headed back to the centre of Vietnam on a loooong sleeper train. […]
