JohnyB - John
Hi there, I am a 21 year old graduate from The University of Manchester. This blog aims to document my next 6 months of travelling throughout Central and South America so that to allow friends and family back home to follow and share my adventures. The trip shall start in Guatemala and then work through Central America before crossing to South America, heading down the west coast visiting the Galapagos and Inca Trail before ending up in Rio, Brazil. Hope everyone enjoys reading as much as I shall enjoy the trip.

Hi there, This is a testing entry to familiarise myself with travelblog. It is now exactly a month before i head off. Although getting closer and closer there is so much to do and so many people and places to see before hand that I haven't really started to think about it. However, what I have realised is just how expensive travelling is, and thats before you even get on the aircraft! There is the obvious expense of tickets but on top I have had over £250 of injections and bought over £150 worth of kit from steralising tablets, to padlocks [View Full Entry]
