The Prelude

So, after months of anticipation (as well as 59348753 jabs and numerous trials of waterproof jackets, hiking boots, backpacks, camera bags, travel pillows, foldable water bottles etc.), and endless questions including 1) where are we going; 2) how long are we going for; and 3) how long will it take before we kill each other after spending so much time together, the time has finally arrived and the answers to these questions will begin to emerge.

Packing has been a challenge [read: huge f*****g nightmare] and, if like me, you are a notorious overpacker (particularly of the footwear variety), you will find yourself WAY out of your comfort zone. However, part of this experience for us is to go “back to basics” (although not too basic, our backpacks are so big we could quite comfortably sleep inside them should the need arise). Let’s see how well that goes.

And so it begins, but just before we board the first flight of the Resignated Survivors’ Big Adventure (the lawyer in me is going to refer to this as the “RSBA” from now on), a MASSIVE thank you to everyone who has helped us get to this point – your support and encouragement has been invaluable in helping us to take a step closer to achieving our travel dream and we hope we can entertain you sufficiently such that: a) you can get over the agonising jealousy you are feeling right now to become avid followers of the RSBA; and b) we might inspire some of you to follow in our footsteps, or at least plan to meet up with us somewhere along the way (this may have a positive effect on question 3 above so we really do encourage you to do so).

That’s all for now, we’ll see you on the other side (first stop: Mother India)!

Much Love,

The Resignated Survivors
