hello stranger! Hi Debbie!
What a lovely last blog - brought a real tear to the eye!
Coming back is so hard, check out the last page of my blog and read the comment from Morley - remember him? There is a website that you can go to that really helps with coming home again! I am in London at the moment so if you are going to be here at any time (even for 1/2 an hour) then please please let me know and I will come and meet you for coffee - due to space I cant ask you to stay over but please let me know!!!!!
Talk soon I hope
Amy
Hey you! Hi Debbie!

When you get back please get in touch - I would love to meet up with you and have a bloody good gossip as people here have NO concept of what travelling is about - see my blog for further details on this!!! You have been warned!
Nice to see you are still having a great time

Well Done I have enjoyed following your journey through India - one that I hope I am able to take one day too. In the meantime, the intimicy and detail of your writing has helped give me a taste of what it must be like or was at least for you. Congratulations on your achievement and I hope that you find happiness in the rest of you travels. You ceryainly don't seem to have much trouble meeting people. Better luck with your new camera - the pictures on your site are really good.

Hi Debbie, I'm also really enjoying the blogs. You should really consider taking up writing! Here in Jamaica everything has been World Cup Cricket which just started on Sunday with the opening ceremony in Jamaica. The best thing about it is that they have somewhat cleaned up Downtown Kingston (it remains extremely dilapidated, but clean now at least), and we're also having some temporary relief from potholes as a result, but let's see how long that lasts. Anyway, take care. Mark XX
Wonderful! Hi Debbie, I can't thank you enough for the wonderful blog. Reading it makes me feel as if I am in a small way part of the adventure! Have you thought of taking up a career as a writer? My husband is also enjoying them very much - so many thanks and keep them coming! Spring has definitely arrived here. The rain has stopped for most of this week and the daffs, primroses etc are all dancing about nicely. (Shades of William Wordsworth and 'I wandered Lonely as a Cloud'). We have just come back from a long walk over the cliffs from Ladram Bay to Branscombe. I'm not sure if you have heard about the shipwreck off the coast near us but just in case you haven't a cargo boat bound for South Africa went aground off Branscombe a small village on the Devon coast very near to where we live. Once people heard about it, hundreds of vans arrived from all over the country and people started taking the cargo off. It took 4/5 days for the Devon police to organise protection and by then there were many sad stories of people sending personal possessions to SA who had lost them. Some scavengers did have their conscienses pricked and returned stuff but much has been whisked away and presumably sold on markets and car boot sales. When we went over the tops today the cargo containers left on the deck had all been taken off onto tugs and barges to continue their journey and the work has begun to clear the hold - which is still full. The ship has tipped on the sandbank and is being restrained by tugs and ropes. The beach is littered with rubbish and damaged containers. We were very lucky though because not as many birds as was expected were damaged by the oil which seems to have been dealt with first. I'm off to London for the week this week to help with some training and to finish off some bits of DfES work. Looking forward to hearing about the next phase of your travels. Keep enjoying....til we 'speak' again. XX Bonny
Hello from Berlin! Hello Debbie!
It's so nice to read your lines. So you are really enjoying your trip finally. I remember how scared you were in the beginning to be just on your own in a crazy country like India. But now you really got into it. Very nice!!! When I read your text all my India experiences come back as well. It was a great time. What am I doing here actually? No I can't complain really. I fall deeply in love and now I'm trying to settle down in Berlin, trying to find work as well of course, which is not easy at all, but I'm trying really hard and very slowly things start to happen I think. I have only been in Berlin for about a month or so, so it's the very beginning. I'm trying to penetrate into the film scene here, which is difficult and takes time, but I think it's gonna be possible. Btw I'm doing my Sivananda Yoga about 5 days a week. I get up in the morning at 7am and start the exercises at around 7:30am. It feels really great, I love it, kind of got addicted to it.
Please keep writing the blog, it's really nice to read about your adventures. I wish a phantastic and unforgettable year out there. Big hugs from Berlin, Carola :-)
Brilliant keep it coming debbie for me it is like breath of fresh air to read this, helps me to forget my own mundane life, for a few wonderful moments
I'm originally from London, England, and left everything to go travelling in October 2006, with just a one way ticket taking me to India, Singapore, Bangkok and Sydney. The rest was up to me and left largely unplanned, purposely - I wanted my travelling to take me rather than me controlling it. I had no idea how long I was going to be away for, or when, or if, I'd be back.
In the end I travelled for 15 months, spending the first 6 months travelling all around India, a long-time dream of mine, then on to Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand again, Austra... full info
