Ok I don't think I can be bothered with the blog. There's too much time involved and I hardly use a computer while I travel. But honestly I am having the time of my life!! Met a lot of wonderful people in France and have had some great experiences with hhiking, one girl in particular... ;) But yeah, I wouldn't do it any other way!
Am going over budget right now (average spending in France is 25 Pounds a day) but have made a few bad decisions which have caused this and I have learned from it. So am now going to get back on track but also I don't want the restrictive budget to stop me from doing the things I want to in each country, for instance, I need to try frogs legs and Escargot before I leave France and I think I might hitch to Burgundy for a day to do this. Oh yeah, I pretty much live on foie gras, pate, cheese, baguettes, wine and saucisson in France... It's a hard life ;D
I'll try and post but it's not often I sit on a computer like this.

1st stop
Well I managed to hitch a ride all the way from London to Edinburgh. Took a few hours to get a ride but was pretty lucky in the end. Got dropped off in the centre of town and am now staying with my couchsurfing host for one night but I think I'll be camping tomorrow. Wish me luck!

The ball is rolling!! Hopefully in the right direction...
Well I've handed in my notice today via E-mail, haven't heard back about it yet though. But at this point my last day of work will be 06/06/2011 after which I will catch up with Steve Smith in Scotland and Wales before heading to France.

Limbo
Just when I was going to hand in my notice, it all starts happening!!! Now I'm starting to enjoy my time in London and am totally confused about what to do!?? Luckily I'm waiting on a hopeful bonus from the company before I give notice and can consider my options a bit more. Almost considering coming back after my three month shengen visa is up and workin again so I can see even more of europe and the UK before heading to Canada in another year. This way I can also leave a bit later if need be.
London... it's a love, hate relationship. I think this is the feeling among a lot of people here.

Intro
Hello people!
This is the start of my new blog to cover my travels!
At the moment I plan to hit the road in mid May 2011 and will travel Europe for three months. To start I'm going to hitchhike my way from London to Paris, France.
From there I intend to thumb my way south to a property where I will do some WWOOFing. before continuing on to Italy and then eastbound; passing through all the countries towards Greece and then back up to Slovenia to work at an adventure sports camp in exchange for accommodation and participating in the sports. After this I will make my way to the pending airport which will take me to Canada (Pending the visa) to some more pending adventures!
My accommodations will include: Camping, Couchsurfing, wwoofers accommodations, local hospitality, and plain roughin it!
I'll try to video document as much as I can and post pics of anything funny, interesting, and crazy.
Computer access will be limited as I will not be taking a laptop with me so we'll see how it all works out.
That concludes the first post!
Make sure you subscribe/join/check for updates and join me on the adventure!!!
