Well I left Ireland on the 2nd of July 2010, so I have been travelling now for quite a while. I backpacked through Thailand, Cambodia and Laos for 2 months and I had an absolute ball. Then I set up base in China for 6 months to teach English. After that I was off again, I backpacked down through China for a month and then crossed into Vietnam where I travelled around for a bit.

Response to John Smith
Hi John, sorry for the slight delay on the response...yeah it is definitely a huge culture shock to say the least but think I am adapting fairly well. China is a weird and wonderful place and I am glad to be experiencing all these new things however far removed they may be from my own culture and as you say these memories will be hard to forget!
