2012 has been a brilliant year for me so far!
Up until August it was pretty uneventful. Just working lots and going to nandos lots.
Broke my 306
but bought a 205 that was lots of fun!
August the 1st I left home on my travelling adventure. Just with a 38litre backpack with all my stuff I did
Paris, Munich , Salzburg , Vienna, Bratislava, Budapest, Brno, Prague, Berlin all in the first month
Then spent most of September travelling the trans Siberian/Mongolian railway from st Petersburg to Beijing, stoping in Moscow, Irkutsk, lake Baikal, Ulaanbaatar, an amazing national park in Mongolia (see sig) and Beijing!
Then I stayed in Beijing for three weeks volunteering in an orphanage. A very humbling experience that won't be forgotten easily!
After that I flew to Thailand and spent a month travelling around. Went to the famous full moon party on the south islands, which was amaaaazing. Week long party on amazing beaches etc
Also saw some other amazing islands in Thailand. Such as phi phi where the film the beach was filmed! If you've seen it. That was awesome
After Thailand spent 10 days in Laos. Staggeringly beautiful country. And rather underdeveloped. Had a great time there.
Then went to Vietnam for 4 weeks. Another amazing country. Very diverse yet beautiful nearly everywhere!
Then two days ago I flew to Australia! In Perth for Christmas and the undefined future.
First hot Christmas for me too!
Luckily met a girl on the trans Siberian who's welcomed me into her flat/family for Christmas!
Probably going to look for a job after new year!
So yeah it's been more amazing then I can comprehend really!
Still miss my 306 though
