Deirdre Keys (nee Fleming)
Hi from Dee. I’ve taken a year’s leave from my job of more than 25 year’s teaching and am preparing to set off on my “Big OE”; better late than never! This is a practise, with instructions from son Dan who is an experienced traveller/blogger, to make sure I can work the “Travel Blog” OK before I leave New Zealand on 26th Feb 2006. The photo is me with Dan and Emma yesterday at "Groove in the Park" in Auckland Domain. I hope to visit internet cafes and update weekly but will have to work that one out when I’m on the road.
I’ll be travelling to Singapore, United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Greece, Turkey, Italy, and Austria between now and mid May. Then it’s on to work in St Petersburg in Russia for 6 months with the “Neva News”, an English newspaper. After that I’ll be making my way home through Thailand to arrive back in NZ for Mum’s 80th birthday in early December.
I’m looking forward to an adventure this year and invite you to join me in this Travel Blog! Take care everyone. Love Dee.
