We are both very happy to have you both back safe and well - and it was a great surprise! The blog was an excellent idea to keep everyone up-to-date and now you have your memories recorded forever. Got to go to the shop now to get another 4Ib of bacon! Love ma and pa xxx

muml Just read this last blog and a tear came to my eye and a lump to my throat. Thank you Hayley for such an insight into your amazing adventure and supporting my precious son and your wonderful husband on an experience of a life time. Yes you did surprise me, I said you would land on my doorstep before the end of October. Uncanny or what !! Will miss this blog!!

We absolutely love the pictures of the baby kangaroo's (Joey's) and the video of Sutra jumping through the wire fence. Hope you both have a nice time in Freemantle. Don't forget to look at the Esplanade hotel and the Sail & Anchor where me and your pa got steaming drunk! Love you both xx

after speaking to you this morning and reading Haley's blog. I feel as though I have caught up with you. It sounds as though you have been really busy and ready for a rest in the new place. Good Luck Love to you both

Enjoyed reading your blog and catching up . The house looks amazing looks like you landed on your feet. Hope you are enjoying the peace and quiet ?

Oh dear Jonathan !! picking carrots, looking after animals, no pubs for miles, what are you going to do. You will have to read a book, last one you read was Noddy xx Love you loads only 4 weeks left!!

Hi Crocodile Dundee and his Sheila, loving the recent photos of Aus, the farm looks fab. Remember Jonathan Crocodiles like to be wrestled not Karate Chopped, enjoy, stay safe , can't wait for the next blog with an update on your adventures in the out back. Big hugs from me, Russ and baby L. Xx

great to read your final blog from Asia,summing up you had a really great time. It seems ages since we saw you in Vietnam can't get my head round the fact that you were there for 14 weeks!! Hope you have a safe and problem free trip to Oz and Good Luck when you get there Love Mum xxx

I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw the pictures as I somehow got it in my head that the full moon party was where everyone was running around starker's! Whew!! Anyway Hayls and Jonathan, one more chapter over and another new one begins in Aus. Love you both loads, mum. xxxxxx

Hello Carl and Auntie P, lovely to hear from you and thanks for your kind wishes! Yep we are having a great time here and cant believe how fast its gone with our time in South America and Se Asia. Its been amazing and worth every second! Im planning to make this blog into a book, hence why ive kept up with it for so long! However with Australia coming up i will probably not write too many more and ill just keep posting the photos instead. Its a shame i will miss you all in Thailand. Ive left Koh samui now, and in Ko Phangan as its the full moon party tonight which should be interesting! Back to Bangkok on the 29th and off to Oz on the 5th!
Hope you gave a great hol and im sure you will love Thailand!
Give my love to everyone. take care xxx

Helloooooooo beach bums!
Firstly belated congratulations to you both xx. Auntie P and I have just been looking over your recent pictures and all we can say is ... WOW! How brave you both are following your dreams unlike us who just talk about adventures and never do anything about them. You both are going to have one hell of a story book to put together once you settle down. We are only 21 days away from coming to koh samui after enjoying the sites of Bangkok and maybe an ocasual drink with a ladyboy,lol. Don't suppose you'll still be enjoying the lazy beach life by the time we arrive.It would be great if we could cross paths.Josh is flying out to Thailand on the 3rd Aug to Phuket though,which would have been fab if you could have met up. We'll look forward to your next post on here,stay safe love from the North East and anuite P xxxxxxx
P.S
Nan & Grandad send their love and wish you a safe trip xx

commented on your great photos of the zoo Hayley - have a look. Wondering how Jonathan's getting on with the 6 pack!!!Couldn't see much evidence looks more like he's having too much eggs and bacon to me.!! Thailand looks really great, I would like to go??
