These are the original emails sent to family and friends as we travelled from New Zealand through Asia, across Russia and into Europe. We wanted to do as much of the route overland as possible and managed to do Bangkok to London by train, bus, bicycle, boat, tuk tuk, motorbike and a lot of walking.

We started in Indonesia before going through Thailand, Burma, Laos, China, Mongolia, Russia, Eastern Europe, Croatia at which point we unfortunately ran out of time and raced through Slovenia, Austria, Germany, Belgium and France before getting a ferry to England.
