Hellooo, it's two rather adventurous travelers from the bonny streets of Edinburgh. Taking our place in the great melee of backpackers, travelers and touts to sample just how many different animals we can eat. This trip of gargantuan proportions is sure to alter the very fabric of the Earth and we apologise to all the trees our journey is bound to kill. In fact we said sorry to the shrubs this morning and will continue to make every effort to redress the Karmic balance by holding every third breath.

And while this may seem like a cheap (ish - we are traveling for a year) way of wasting time, our efforts to better understand the globally community and their bacterial infections will be shared for the good of all mankind - and trees.

Update - For those following closely two new pairs of pants were purchased and so the total was raised to six. Nic, however, vetoed one pair and the clan was reduced to five. Thought you'd want to know

Update - Ahh now that we´ve visited Bolivia we´re up to 8% of the world visited in this trip, it really does make the mind boggle.

Update - Now this is just getting silly, but with 30 days to go Belize was just too close not to visit and seeing as how we have to come back to Mexico City we might as well do it through Guatamala. That´s now 9% folks
