About this blog

Welcome one and all to this travel thing of glory!

Righto. So here's the pitch - Sarah and I head to Russia, amuse ourselves for a week or two before catching a long-ass train known as the Trans-Siberian 'express' through to Beijing, where we proceed to bimble about the place generally enjoying ourselves whilst avoiding interesting illnesses. On the list are China, hopefully Tibet, Vietnam, Laos and Thailand but basically wherever we feel like going next.

My plan is to keep this updated with interesting thoughts on our adventures, some pretty pictures and maybe even some shiny videos for you to enjoy with your eyes! ^_^ I'll try not to be boring. Honest. We'll be back before you know it anyway.

Big hugs,

Iain Xx-
