About this blog

Welcome fellow friend. In case you might be wondering, the name miffyanddougle stands for Miffy aka Peter. And Dougle was a nickname that I, Hannah, somehow got at my old school in Burford, although it's not really in use anymore. However, when I looked it up on google, it came up with the urban dictionary, defining it as: "To do something stupid that ends up resulting in success." I thought this could be quite fitting, who knows, maybe the idea of travelling around the world without flying is rather stupid, but it could result in being the biggest success ever!

So our epic trip is as follows: from Scotland to Europe, across Russia, down to Australia, back to Africa, and probably back home again as we'll run out of time...
