Having accomplished 12,500km overland in Africa, 3,000km on Greyhound buses in OZ, nearly 9,000 kms in our NZ rental car, journeys on 57 buses, 47 ferries, 40 flights, 3 trains, countless taxis and tuk tuks, 1 elephant ride and a great big adventure we are finished our travels.
Being back we have found what we miss immediately are those quiet places of the world where we spent so much time. The birdsong in the trees, the sound of the wind, countless days immersed in a good book, hours wandering on a great walk and enjoying the solace of a deserted beach. The confidence that if you don't like any place or situation you can just pack up and move on. New faces around every corner and a countless cultures to experience firsthand. Food too spicy to eat and some too weird to miss. This year has been spent learning what we could live without, the extremes we could stand and what we truly appreciate in our lives. It has been an amazing journey and I hope not the last.
So as a reward to our constant companions on this journey (that's you!) we have picked our top photos for
you to enjoy. Thanks for accompaning us on our journey and providing us with loving support and good wishes from home along the way.
