Four Go RTW

Well we gave it our best shot. Since Four Go(ed) RTW in 2007-08, we’ve been back in England for 15 months but we still want to leave! Despite the recession, we managed to find good jobs, the girls have happily settled into a different school, we moved back into our house, and picked up the threads of ‘normal’ life.

But we can always live here, so we want to try living somewhere else. Spain ticks all our boxes – climate, culture, language, work, housing, schools, distance from UK etc. Empowered by our amazing family RTW year, we are again ditching the fear factor and moving Team Edmeads south on the 11th January 2010. Needless to say there's a blog to chart all the emotional bits, beautiful bits and scary bits, and the Trainspotter will no doubt make a return, his public want more apparently!

So nearly 2 YEARS after the first post, here is the last - THE BLOG IS NOW A BOOK!!!!!!

I've spent so many hours assimilating my diary from the 12 months leading up to the trip, formatting the blog to make it fit, and adding the journal I've been keeping since we returned to 'finish' the story - it almost took more planning than the trip itself! I'm so pleased with the result, have a look:

Thank you all soooooo much for all your support and encouragement via the Travellerspoint portal - you really have no idea how much it's meant to us having you all along for the amazing ride.
See ya
All love CRFS xxxx

We will be leaving the UK in September 2007 on a year long Round the World trip with our 2 children who are 7 and 4 years old.

Our route is roughly: UK-India-China-Vietnam-Cambodia-Thailand-Laos-Malaysia-Singapore-Australia-New Zealand-Cook Islands-US-Mexico-Belize-Guatemala-UK all which is of course subject to change at any time!

So in the spirit of 'making life happen' and other catchy phrases, we've started this blog which will (with the appropriate diligence and upkeep) be the 'trip journal' for all 4 of us to add to during the prep and on our trip. We promise NOT to turn it into a 'got up at 8am, had breakfast and then we caught the No.57 bus, and read 5 pages of my book...' type thing, but use it to keep us and the girls in contact with family and friends.

BTW you can subscribe to our blog so it will send you an email whenever we post anything, rather than checking every so often. (hopefully that won't be an irritating feature!)

See you soon,

CRFS xxxx
