Less than one month to go...

Well, here we are less than one month out from our 13 week trip around Europe. This long awaited adventure is about to be realised after many false starts and, some might say, crazy travel dreams. First up there were plans for a six month stint in India, travelling and living in both a commune and ashram however after short jaunts to third world countries, we realised that neither Bodhi or us were ready for that sort of inteprid travel yet.

So in denial about the reality of work commitments and financial sensibility we have decided to fund our own long service leave and enjoy the experience of a life time in Europe. Our inspiration for this journey came from our desire to take part in the Diamond Way Buddhism EC Summer Course in Germany in August plus the fact that our daughter, Renée and her boyfriend Joel, are over there having their own adventure and it sounded like fun to join them! Throw my parents, Brian and Lorraine, in to the mix and it's become a family reunion!

Therefore with only accomodation booked in a few key destinations and with the services of our yet unnamed Peugeot 308 as wheels, Europe is at our fingertips and the only thing stopping us is our imagination!

Now it is time to organise some travel insurance, practise packing and get all those work related tasks out of the way and then it is 11.12 all the way!
