Our arrival in Africa!!! After spending the night before drinking until 6am (when the Madrid Subway re-opened) and sleeping on the airport floor, we made our triumphant landing at the very northern tip of Morocco. Despite our exhaustion (sleep deprivation is an amazing thing), our excitement carries us the rest of the way, as we [...]

So, funny story eh? We must have got on the wrong flight or something, but somehow or another we ended up in Vancouver. This is another one of those posts where im writing it a couple days before the fact, and the website automatically posts it for me. So to write about being “home” is [...]

Greetings from England! For anyone who’s still following our adventures, i needed to post a quick update.

Well, here we are, alive and well (as if you expected it to be any different). We’ve been here in Accra for a couple days now, and we’re just starting to settle in; all the more reason for our restless feet to make our next set of plans. A week and a half ago we [...]

Well, its been a while since anyone has had a chance to update, due to absolute laziness (we’re on vacation, its Africa, and internet is less abundent than in the Western World - enough excuses’?) but mainly due to the fact that we’ve been moving lots in the last few weeks. We’re in Lome, [...]

Our website took a few days to get up and running, so we’re started the blog mid trip. We also just spent the last 4 nights in the desert, completing our journey from Nouakchott, Mauritania to where we are now Bamako, Mali. It’s pretty much impossible to catch you up to speed on over 3 [...]
