The 2013-2014 year planner

So the basic plan goes like this (in case you can't read the spreadsheet above!):

16th April - Jordan to visit my must see - PETRA and then Lebanon (of course we fully expect to make this the wine tasting tour of the Middle East!)
10th May - Morocco back via Lisbon to see Jo Lima and family
30th May - Turkey avec le Camden Crew
24th June - USA!! San Franciso & then Hawaii with Vix & Ian for 4th July 

then I have a flight back to the UK from New York on 28th August - so lots of US time to fill Dr Watson, Jessamyn et al!!

2nd Sept - Bangkok
7th Sept - Burma!! *also a must see*
21st Sept - Bangkok up to Chang Mai, on to Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam starting from Ho Chi Minh up to Hanoi, then from Hanoi to Hong Kong

16th Dec - back to London for Christmas

NEW YEAR in South America!! (work in progress)

Got the new passport - next the visas!

Shame I look like a serial killer then :s

The planning commences...

So now to the planning....

First stop with the lovely Cat is Jordan and possibly Lebanon... then perhaps via Dubai to say hi to Jonny and then onwards to South East Asia, with the aim of being in South America in time for the New Year's Eve reunion with Camdenites!

None of the details are settled - first thing to do is to extend my passport (it runs out next Summer so could get tricky where visas need 6 months before expiry....) and then get the visas, the jabs, the gear and get out there!!

Ex banker to world traveller

So that's right folks, I've jacked the banking job in and I'm heading to travel the world for a year (maybe in more modern clothing than above!).

I'll try to keep you bored in the loop on where I'm going when, and what I've seen etc on this blog.... wish me luck!
