Girls! finally get to see ur piccies, they look amazing, much more activities and excitment than the past two months! can see why Bali and Indonesia re ur fave countries so far, they look wikked! Was amazed to see u girls hiring a jeep! was it just Jess driving or Becks as well? as u've heard, we had a nasty car accident, which has delayed our very precious 2 weeks left of travels, which is sooooo irritating! But we're looking forward to the car getting repaired and set off upnorth to Buenos Aires! What was it like driving from different side of the car and road? Bet ur parents got worried from hearing u girls hiring a jeep! at least u girls probably were driving sensibly!
BECKS, JESSIE, what are the cigarettes doing in ur hands in one of the photos?? u both looked as if u've been smoking for years! hope that u girls will continue to smoke in Sheffy, and change the house rule of no smoking! :-)
Look forward to share with ur travel experience back in Sheffy in a couple of weeks, we gotta make it a night to remember, with booze! (except for u Becks, no more alcohol and staying sober while us three enjoy it all!) although cant imagine u (becks) getting off alcohol, especially around us two alcoholics! too much peer pressure! :-)
Enjoy the rest of ur trip!

Hellooooo guys! Hope u havent missed us too much after not puttin updates on this site recently! :-) Gilli Islands was absolutely beautiful- totally rocked our booties big time! I wud have been happy just living there forever! So chilled out just scoffin ourselves silly with gorge food- fantastic weather and friendly locals aswell as watchin DVDS with waiters with muscles pouring our beers etc! It was the life!! On the last night we took advantage of the orange juice with vodkas costing only 10p each and got rather foooked. Ended up being bar woman givin away shots for half of the night and dont even remember bits of it., groans! WORST HANGOVER OF MY LIFE THE NEXT DAY with ten hours traveling back to Bali puking up every ten mins having to put down my ever so heavy backpack (and new Roxy bag- teehee). It was awful! Never drinking again! :-) Now we're in Bali for five more days-gonna do surfing, white water rafting, and some more shopping (evil laugh!)

hey everyone,
thanks for reading our messages, sorry we are taking a while to put the photos on, we are getting fustrated with it all. So far indonesia had been rated for our faveourite country out of all the countrie we have visited. there are various of stuff you can do here, we have trekked and saw some orangtiutans, visited temples, more to come. visited an active volcano at 3 in the morn, gorgeous view with the sun rise. For the past few days, we have been relaxing in bali and visited an island too, its brilliant, just came back from watching bali dance. planning to hire a surf board tomorrow and hit the waves. We have been encouraged by watching the film "the blue crush", fab surfing film. Hope you are all well back in england, cant wait to see you all soon!

Havent posted a message for a while, so I thought Id better say something not just sitting at the computer enjoying your stories and photos! As for eating insects: you guys never cease to become less weird! Only kidding! You are all looking very brown in the photos, damn! We are getting a totally different experience out here, we are in south of Argentina met some more deaf ppl. Abs enjoy meeting other deaf people, learning their sign language, amazing. Hopefully we will have left a good lasting impression on them! Will be going south before going north, finally to where the sea sparkles, sand burns our feet and the sun keeps us in our bikinis! Not that we are lacking spectacular views and surreal experiences all around South America: it has been breath-taking, cant wait to share all the gossip with you when we get back!

hey gorge gals!!
Am really sorry for not posting a msg on the website ages ago as been busy with VSO and Guyana. I have really enjoyed reading all the messages on the website and looking at the photos. all are fantastic and am sure that u have a great time of ur life in asia. u have made me wanna to do the same!! especially my dream of doing bungee jump.. u gals are really brave to jump at 3rd world tallest bungee jump. I am pleased for u all to have guts to do it! :D U have also done loads of things that made ur trips a huge successful and a great memories for many years to come. Keep it up gals and keep going visiting more places until very end of ur time in asia! :D
For me, am settling down really well in Guyana, been here for 3 weeks already and enjoying every min of it!! I am sharing a house with another deaf volunteer, Ashton Phillip, u might have meet him in deaf community. We are getting on well :D The house is really nice and does remind us of England in 1970s!! with all old furnitures and styles! Georgetown is also in 1970s!! lots of wooden house and place still stuck in time warp!! but still really nice place tho. we have meet loads of deaf people via church, work places and school. all of them are really friendly and are really pleased to see us :) We are enjoying ourselves with them in work and socialise. In Guyana, Deaf people are being viewed as Mentally Retard which it is absurd. Me and Ashton are going to change that and to show the public that deaf people are not mentally retard and they are clever if given chance to do something. So far, Me and Ashton have been in Tv and newspaper 4 times which it is great news for deaf people as they telling us that we are doing great job for them. Am hoping it is only a beginning and will continue to do for one year. :D
Better stop waffling and leave u gals to spend every precious minute of travelling left to sightseeing the places. Wanna to say have a wikked time and will be thinking of ya all! :D
Btw pls visit my website and post the msg any time u pleased to do. in case if u forget what my website is, (http://www.my-journal.info/deafguyana) :)
Take care and make most of it.
