Off and away

OMgosh, tomorrow I am off on my travels for 2 and a half months and I feel totally unprepared. I wanted to do a longer and more detailed post about what I am doing but I really don't have the time.

I am going to Beijing for a few days on my own where I will then travel to Hong Kong to stay with my friend C from college. After this I will be meeting C and D in Hanoi, Vietnam. We will be travelling the rest of Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore and Bali until I return home on December 10th.

I'm going to take my camera lead with me and try upload some photos of local style and my findings as I go along but in all honesty posting will be extremely infrequent. I do have a 'proper' travel blog where I will be doing some writing about what I've been up to from a tourist point of view. I started this blog when I was inter railing around Europe last summer so it seems appropriate to carry it on.

I am so excited about this whole adventure but am also a little bit scared that I am not fully prepared and will get lost when I'm on my own in Beijing. I'm away for my birthday so I'm looking forward to celebrating it in a brand new way =)

Tonight we all went out for dinner as an early birthday treat, The Boy even came down from Leeds and will take me to the airport tomorrow which is wonderful, he's fantastic =) I'll miss him and my family so much whilst I'm gone. We went to the Oxo Tower and had a wonderfully delicious meal.

The boat party last night was a complete success too.

I must dash, lots to sort out still and it's getting pretty late! Hope you all have a fantastic couple of months whilst I'm away! I'm really going to miss my daily blog instalment but I'll have a massive catch up on my return =)

Wish me luck to not get lost x
