Sorry for the tardiness of my blog entries recently, as some of you may know I am back in the UK at the minute preparing to fly out to Singapore for the next leg of my journey.. and yes as people have rightly pointed out it would have been easier to fly from India but I wanted to fully organise the rest of my trip.

So tomorrow I am flying out to Singapore for a trip to Borneo, the plan is to go on a fancy trek in Borneo then make my way through Malaysia and up to Thailand and then onwards to Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam and eventually China.

For those of you that are interested I thought I would quickly reflect on India and why it worked and didn’t work for me; I had an amazing time in India but I felt that 1 month was plenty for me. India is such a diverse place with so many experiences, you really have to know why you are there, I felt that I didn't have an angle in India and was effectively padding out time there. I will certainly go back to India to do the Golden Triangle,et al.. but I really feel like I lost my travelling vibe towards the end of my time in India.. however the mojo has returned and I'm very much looking forward to the rest of the trip.

N.B. – I have finished uploading my India pics onto facebook so check them out and let me know what you think.

Speak to you all soon

Nice synopsis of your sub-continental travails. I think India to Singapore via Britain has to be the best route I have heard of yet. I recommend China via the Falklands to retain consistency.
