Are you still working on your 2019 travel wishlist? Maybe you are a last minute kind of person, so won’t actually decide until weeks before your trip. Or maybe you are more like me, already working on plans for 2020! While my 2019 plans are not yet totally set...

Today marks six months since I have left the comfort of the house I have lived in for 20+ years in Adelaide, Australia. We are just short of the half way mark of our trip and I thought it might be fun to share with you all some statistics and some of the things I have...
