About this blog

For the past 2 years Rob and I have been living in different countries and therefore spent our time flying between Ireland and England! Quite frankly we got fed up of spending so much time apart and giving all our hard earned cash (well earned anyway) to Aer Arann! So instead of being sensible, proper grown ups and buying a house, we decided to embark on an amazing, around the world adventure, which will see us visit approximately 15 countries. The adventure starts on the 14th November 2010! We can't wait to start our adventure together and hope that you can be part of it too by reading our blog and looking at our pictures!
