I don't know where this came from; the plan was to move cities for a year and a half and do a huge travel towards the end of 2009. Well, several meet ups, short travels, and endless conversations with new friends has taken me away sooner then expected. This is me sacking off work and buggering off to SE Asia for a few months (via some UK and Germany time out).

Cheap flights, Steph's birthday and a whole heap of WALKING through history... and Beckham's Serie A debut that was meant to happen :(

I've been to a lot of places in the UK and have enjoyed many a good time here. I believe you should know 'your own back yard' and so here's mine.

I didn't expect to be back in New York so soon after the summer, but when I met up with a few University friends one weekend, we all agreed to go to NYC as soon as possible. Needless to say, it took very little convincing on my part. This trip was very different to my summer stop over and I still feel like there's a lot more to see and do there. This is an amazing city and I love it over there.

Flew in to NYC on 22nd July and moved around America from there. I saw some amazing sites such as Niagara Falls and the Grand Canyon and I got to drive down the Big Sur. It was a truly awesome experience and I'd love to do a lot more traveling from now on.

Flew into Bangkok and moved onto to Phuket and Koh Samui. We did a lot of trips out from these places and saw a lot of the different islands.
