So, as I mentioned in my welcome message, me and Tom have decided to go traveling. It's not like it's a decision on a whim it's something we have been dreaming of for a very long time (most of my life to be honest).

It's not been easy saving up the money, well, it still isn't. Working full time on nothing more than national minimum wage, it's tough going. Over worked and underpaid springs to mind. Do you blame us for wanting to get away!

We don't have a specific itinerary or anything. We don't like to make big plans, more the 'just go with the flow' kinda people. Asia, SE Asia is our main destination.

Anyway, flights have been booked for our first destination, we're just winging the rest. Manchester> Jeddah> Kuala Lumpur> Langkawi. That's right, Malaysia! Only got another 135 days to go. Not that I'm counting or anything.
