Something old, something new!



We bought a car!
an old Van...

And now we have a new Plan!

---

Time to get our home-making on.

Then, time to get our travel on.

I thought we could call her Aymu as her number plate suggests.
Had a crazy thought to paint her in black and white cow print...
Is this too crazy?

Looking forward to making Curtains :)


Any locations that are a must-see?
I'd love your advice!!

Flabbergasted.


So...

Passport=really important document if you buy into this crazy system.

Trip to India=beginning tomorrow if you can go by our silly trust in the plans we've made.

Home=a place where we cannot find our passports if you can go buy the incredibly thorough quality of our search, my mothers search and my brothers search.

Landfill=where passports have most likely ended up via the recycling (yellow) bin.

I HAVE NO IDEA HOW THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED!!!!
And I don't know who to blame, if anyone.

All I know is - I am FLABBERGASTED!

We have called all the important people and places and some.
We have asked all the right questions and some.

And we have come up with nothing that will allow us to get on that plane come Wednesday...

SO- we are gonna have to do something else :)

Any ideas???

For now, we are enjoying this wonderful chance to be content, go with the flow and be full of joy always.
It's going well.

We are so blessed to be in a position of freedom where we really can do whatever we want to do.
And there are many things that we want to do in our life-time.

WATCH THIS SPACE to see what comes of it all.

On and Off again!!!


Hi friends!

We're ON again, online.
Get ready for regular updates, stories and musings from myself and from H, via this blog.

I can't imagine what we'll have to say but I'm sure it will be riveting (or the exact opposite, beware).

It's been a long time since I've been so involved with this internet entity, and it's been avoided for many reasons, but we're back again for a good reason, a worthwhile reason.

Reason = To keep in contact, and to remain contactable.
Because we're OFF again!

Off to India!

We leave Sydney on the morning of February the 22nd, and leave Australia on February 23rd at approximately 10.30am.
Leaving from Melbourne, we fly to Kuala (Koala) Lumpur, and after a short stop over we fly on to Mumbai, India.

And then we plan to make our way to a place considered home, Ahmedabad. (circled in red on map, and also spelt differently to how I thought was right...)

The plan is to adventure for a few years, around the planet. Mainly in India and The America's.
But only God knows what we will actually end up doing, and for how long.
One thing I know about H and I is that our "plans" mean crap-all.
We've made plans before and, well, we are yet to actually fulfill most of them.
We did, however, follow through on a few.
Marriage, getting jobs, saving money, having fun...
Check, check, check, check, check-mate.

Current plans,
-Quit jobs!!!
-Finish very-un-finished project of making wedding album/scrap-book.
-Somehow celebrate my mom's birthday.
-Move out over the duration of "next week".
-Get completely organised to leave:
-pack our carry-on luggage
-pack all our stuff up into my old little bedroom at mom's house (thanks mom!)
-pick up our hopefully-approved Visa's from the post office
-spend quality time with people we love
-get a debit card
-Spend a week in the lovely Crescent Head (where we got married almost a year ago) relaxing and having lots of fun times.
-Check that our super cheap flight still exists ($217 to Mumbai!!!).
-Leave.

Anyway, plans aside, we will be here, online, to keep in contact with who ever wants it.

So, we'll talk later I guess.

All the love in the world,
A.
