Hello all,

So, a huge amount has happened since my last blog post a little over a month ago. Simon and I have spent endless hours researching for our massive trip and the more we look, the more excited we become.

The first exciting development is that we booked a ‘camper car’ in New Zealand. We have our camper car for 40 days which will be a perfect amount of time to drive around the North and South Island! Exciting! Cooker, bed, table and chairs, and of course, a car are included!

The second development is that we have booked a week volunteering in Chiang Mai, Thailand at an Elephant Sanctuary. Elephant Nature Park prizes themselves for being a sanctuary and rehabilitation centre for elephants. All of the reviews and youtube videos we’ve watched about the centre are so heart whelming and during our time at the centre we will play a very hands on role in the daily care for the elephants and other animals in the parks care. I can not tell you how excited I am about this week. The best part about it, is they don’t allow any riding of the elephants. Your sole purpose is to learn about them and care for them, which is exactly what we want from this experience.

We’ve also booked some of our accommodation so it’s all coming together.
