Okay, feeling a little guilty that I didn't finish the end of the travel story very well! Last in Goa, which is now some 8+ months ago, can you believe?
Goa was amazing (from what I can remember!). The villa Kirsty wangled with us, was fantastic. We had a very relaxing few weeks there, then stayed with her for a week or so, as we were struggling to get a flight home. Well, we could get one, but at a price - 700 pounds!! so we bidded our time, (which wasn't difficult) and eventually got one booked for 300+.
Whilst we were in Goa, we rented a bike and traveled south to Agonda, rated India's top 10 beach by Trip Advisor. It did not disappoint! We spent 3 days lazying around, watching the cows bathing on the beach! Not a lot to there, which made us very happy!
Anyway, we have now been home for 8 months. Matt is back on the carpentry tools and is happy doing what he does. I have opened a shop in Ironbridge, with a lady whom I have known for about 17 years. We opened it in July, selling products/crafts made in Shropshire. Unfortunately for me, I'm not so happy, doing what I am doing, so will be moving onto pastures new, in the new year. I don't know where or what I'll be doing, but I'm sure another chapter of my life will be starting!
We both still get pangs of wanderlust, so last month we bought a campervan, as one of our many highlights of our 13 months away was travelling around OZ for 5 weeks in the camper we hired!
