We have very different backgrounds that might manifest themselves in this blog as a kind of wierd, multiple personality: - Sheila is a hyperactive environmental scientist, proudly Scottish and a bona fide explorer, who expects to get fitter as the days go by - Clare is a part-time performance poet from near Liverpool, who is abandoning a chequered history and expects this expedition to kill or cure her.

I really enjoyed your post! It reminded me of the time I spent there. I'm always looking for photos to post on my community blog, if there's anything you'd like to share. Check it out if you have the time. Continued fun on your travels!

Hiya
How's Fiji? I would like to get there sometime, but it would probably cause another coup if I turned up. Saw your Dad a couple of nights ago Clare. He was on good form.
Glad the Sydney gig went well. Good luck for Auckland. I hear you are going to be a judge. Find 'em guilty.
Cheers Mal

Hi there!
I'm have to do a research project for school to find out about the online consumer behaviour of flashpackers. Please, could you fill in the survey?

It will only take a few minutes! Would really mean a lot! Thank you :)

Hi Flashpackers, your site is great, brilliant pictures and fantastic blogs!
I hope your trip is going well, it certainly sounds like your having a ball!
Phil and I are enjoying the house, however we would much prefer to swop places as we have just had a cold snap last week!
Keep up the flashpacking!
Love Gemma & Phil
