The Countdown has Begun...

Yes, Adam & I are now counting down the days - 8 if you're interested, until we leave for a warmer climate. The momentum is building now, particularly after our farewell party at The Victoria in Camden (A big thank-you to Ian & David who looked after us and all our guests and made our night a very special one).

It has been an emotional rollercoaster, leaving your home after 10 years is not an easy journey. The unknown always scares me, but I am up for the challenge. London, what can I say, I didn't warm to her in the beginning (New York was by far the best city) but slowly over the years like an Ivy plant, wrapped her tendrils around my heart and I will be extremely sad to say goodbye.



I am going to have to pry Adam's fingers from the terminal gate with a crowbar. No seriously, we really are looking forward to returning home.

On a lighter note, for all you foodies out there, watch this space, for the next 6 months , I will hopefully be tasting some amazing food and meeting the people who specialise in cooking it, trying to find out those secret ingredients and family recipes and a few cooking classes along the way. Adam will be my taster for the more exotic ingredients he has an adventurous palate, an iron stomach and loves those specialty items (vegetarians be warned).

First Stop, Bangkok!

Adam - you'll never be ready to go...
Best of luck to both of you and hope to see you in Oz when your Asian Odyssey is complete.
