Jump into the Gap
"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived" - Henry David Thoreau
I love this blog, you all look to have had some amazing adventures in some beautiful countries. We hope to see a lot of these over the next few years too and your information and cost breakdowns are helping us out a lot in our planning. thanks
Hi Charlotte,
We had an amazing adventure. Truly the highlight of my 38 years of life! Places like Cambodia and Vietnam can be explored on even a tighter budget and are an amazing value. Malaysia was also spectacularly beautiful, this caught me off guard. I wish you and your family wonderful travels!
