Robbie and Suezy Cointreau

Hi there, we are Rob and Suez from Blackpool, North West England, UK. From the 2nd June 2009 we're off on a bit of an adventure consisting of 2 months in India then 4 months round South East Asia. We've been on a few mini adventures before but nothing quite as big as this! Our general idea is to meet a lot of people, see a lot of things and take as many pics as possible.
