We have three months to complete this trip which will finish on the 31st of August.
Our itinerary is unfixed, as for the first time ever I have been persuaded to leave the details alone and see 'where the wind takes us'. We have no idea where we will be sleeping each night, nothing is booked and between us other than English we speak fluent Polish and a fair amount of French - lets hope this is enough, or that at least we learn some things on the way.
We bought an estate Suzuki which we had to fit all of our supplies in for three months. We have no fridge, which means we must rely on a lot of tinned food and pasta. We will be living in a tent for the entire journey. Wish us luck and maybe we'll see you on the road.
