So....we have booked our main flights and know where we will be during which dates, bought most of the gubbins that we need whilst were away, and rented the flat out!
Christmas is here first so we're going to make sure we enjoy this with our families, and then we will have 2 weeks to get our heads down, pack our bags, finish things off at work and then we're off!!
We're both REALLY excited about setting off, and keep imagining ourselves sitting on our first airplane - it seems very surreal as we have been planning this trip for so long.
Los Angeles is our first stop, and we have booked a hostel that it right on Muscle/Venice Beach - we're going to go mad and buy a bus ticket (thinking day pass if you can get them!) to find our own way to the hostel from the airport ourselves! We're also looking forward to visiting Hollywood and Beverley Hills during our brief 2 day visit!
We have also booked our first 3 nights in Auckland in a hostel that looks really funky - bright green and purple 'Austin Powers' style interior. Then our adventure starts in the Campervan for the 3 weeks in New Zealand on our trek to Christ Church in the South Island. Then we have Australia for 7 weeks, of which we have planned some of our itinerary but are hoping to do some unexpected exploring whilst were here. Also Singapore, Thailand Islands, Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia are partially planned but still have some work to do on these!!
Last few bits to buy, like toiletries and sorting money in to right accounts for whilst we're away and then we will start writing this blog from all the beautiful places in the world that we're visiting...looking forward to sharing it all with everyone on here!!!!
