And just like that it comes to an end. 21 months ago Davin and I landed at Stansted airport wearing everything we owned, terrified of the unknown London winter. I was convinced I would freeze to death in my first week, Davin was sure that as always I was over-reacting. We have had an absolute ball in the time since, we have travelled to Scotland (twice), Alicante (twice), Turkey, Amsterdam, Paris, Portugal, Barcelona, Dubrovnik and most recently Prague. We cheered on Australia and Team GB in the Olympic Games and drank champagne in Hyde Park to celebrate the royal wedding. Now we are packing up out tiny apartment (read:throwing everything that isn't make up and thermals in the bin), and readying ourself for the next big challenge; The USA. This Blog is called Full 360 to celebrate our great adventure, since leaving home (Perth, Western Australia) in March 2011 we will soon complete a full 360 of the globe.
The idea to drive across the USA was hatched 12 months ago as we contemplated our final year in London, I had to be back home to start my masters by the end of February 2013 and we wanted to see America before we landed back in Australia. Our route is approximate and will no doubt change as we break down, break up and get wildly lost on the way.
Tomorrow I will update this blog with our planned (very rough) route and plans, for the moment I am going to go toast to great year that was 2012 and ring in 2013 with fireworks over the Thames. Sigh, London I will miss you.
