As most of you will know, I'm about to head off on another adventure (on Tue 22nd August), this time spending a year touring around Central and South America (Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Belize, Mexico, the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Venezuela) and then New Zealand, Australia and Canada.

So I'm setting up this blog which will hopefully keep everyone informed, entertained, and maybe insanely jealous, along the way. I'll try and add some pics too.

Every time I update this site, you'll get an e-mail with a link to the new page, so it's pretty easy to use. You can write messages below - it will be great to hear from you when I'm away. Even if you think you don't have any exciting news, it's nice to keep in touch with what's happening in the real world.

It was great to see so many of you before I left, and apologies to those people I didn't get a chance to catch up with. I'll see you next year!

I'll post again probably from somewhere in Costa Rica.

Bye!

Don't leave behind your sense of humour or your spirit of adventure....but do leave behind your worries and your stresses! (oh, and don't unpack the travel plug! :o)) Take care of you, David, safe and oh so happy travels...Jo
