The itchy feet have been pestering me for months so it must be time to get moving again to see new places, meet new people, experience new cultures. This time next week we will be "leaving on a jet plane" as we begin our Round the World in 30 days adventure with Trip a Deal. To say I am excited is beyond belief.....however I still have to work out what to pack (I am terrible for taking too much), get everything up to date at work and then get ready to totally ...

After a gruelling 29 hours travel I FINALLY made it home!!!! Now I just have to try and work out how to catch up with everyone without running myself ragged. Family, friends bear with me.....the darling Matt and B have looked after my house beautifully but..hmmmm. the garden seems to have been forgotten!!! Guess who will be busy trying to clean it up before leaving again -if not I may be unable to find my house on the next visit. Good old Aussie family BBQ booke...
