Hello all I have to admit that this wasn’t exactly how I planned on writing my final blog. But at this point in time, all else seems to pale in significance. Yesterday my wonderful father passed away. I’m at the airport in Perth waiting for my flight home…although to be honest I can’t imagine home …
Hello all, Once again I feel the need to apologize for being out of touch for sooooo long….but it seems that my body is determined to give me hell on this trip and have been sick quite a bit again. Ironically enough when you are sick you have all the time in the world to …

Hey allI’m so sorry its taken me so long to get back in touch but life in Vietnam has been pretty hectic. I don’t think I have ever been to a country that has stirred up so many conflicting emotions in me. I started this blog post over 3 weeks ago when I arrived in Hanoi …

Hellooo again! For some reason when I do my spell check the ENTIRE second half of this epic appears to have no spelling mistakes…..now we all know, with me, that’s highly, highly unlikely…more like an impossibility, so sorry in advance. Well, I can’t actually believe this, my last day in India. Less than 3 weeks …
Hello again…..yes can you believe it weeks with nothing and now 2 blogs in one day!!!I am just desperate to get rid of the blog backlog so I can start writing daily. I guess the easiest thing to do would be to simply start from today and forget the back log…but unfortunately for my brain, …
Ok so I’m back…..as promised to finish off my Calcutta expedition, (am currently about a week behind so this might be a long one, sorry;-) So where was I …..I had just survived my first Calcutta scamming, and was reasonable unscathed when I asked a man how far Chowringhee road was…he very kindly pointed to …
Ok so after being sick for the last week I had pretty much decided that I couldn’t face going to Calcutta, and would do a massive skip to greener pastures, aka Rishikesh. (Yes I will admit, all that comes to mind when I think of Culcutta are slums!) It was only after meeting and speaking …
