About this blog

Hi All,

Welcome to our big trip.

Having worked in travel for a combined 14 years it is time for one last big adventure before settling down. (Although we have said that before-so who knows).

Starting in Beijing and ending in Vegas we hope to see a fair of this planet we live on.

Hope you enjoy our tales.
