A little bit about us two....

Gary


In his former 'non-travelling' life, Gary managed a branch of a popular builders merchant. Gary is one of 3 brothers and grew up in a town not far from Reading. He enjoys anything sport related - both partaking and watching as well as volunteering, walking dogs for a charity. He particularly enjoys walking/trekking, especially in the Peak District or Cornwall. He is also partial to cooking (when Abi lets him in the kitchen!) and trying lots of different foods/drinks (especially real ale).



- The place i'm most looking forward to going to.....New Zealand
- What I'm most looking forward to doing.....Everest Base Camp Trek
- One thing I hope to achieve.....To learn how to cook a mean Thai green curry! As well as have my eyes opened to the different cultures and gain insight into different ways of living.



Abi


Abi is a qualified Speech & Language Therapist and enjoys being active, socialising, crafting (mainly sewing and knitting), cooking/baking, eating tasty food & most of all enjoying a good cup of tea (or a G&T if its after 5pm!). Abi grew up in a little village in Gloucesterhsire and has one younger brother. She loves trying new things and meeting new people and is curious to learn about different cultures. Travelling helps tick all these boxes!


- The place i'm most looking forward to going to......India
- What I'm most looking forward to doing....Learning to cook local recipes in every country we go to!
- One thing I hope to achieve.....To become more mindful in my approach to life, appreciating all the small things and enjoying the moment! And to spend more time doing things that nourish me, such as yoga and meditation and less time worrying or stressing!

Us....
We met at university in Birmingham in 2008, over a 'snakebite' in our sticky floored student union bar! We made 2015 'THE BEST YEAR' by getting engaged in January, married in July and then leave the UK for our travelling adventure in August :-)
