Tim and I have been married 4 years and together for 10. We are both outgoing and enjoy a few beers as often as possible. We are currently enjoying the sixth month of our 12 month world travel plans
We were very excited at having the opportunity to take 12 months off to just enjoy life and so far it hasn't been a disappointment!!!! We have managed to achieve everything we set out to do so far and more. Travelling truly does broaden your mind and your personal achievements ten fold.
