The Countdown

This is our first blog entry...yahoo! We are in Cape Town at the moment, seeing the family off, doing the Argus, and making last minute plans for our trip... We leave on the 16th March 2009 for an 8 month extravaganza: we plan to backpack around the world through southeast asia, china, Japan, south america and africa!

We finished work on the 27th of Feb, moved out of our house, put our stuff into storage and are preparing to say a somewhat sad goodbye to The Comfortable Life, and a rather nervous hello to The World.
