About swhateley
Taken in the UK just before heading back to SA in Feb 2008
I am a 35 year old, very very vegetarian (not vegan but near enough for all the mission), independent gal from South Africa kind of living in the UK. I am very pro eradicating poverty and HIV/Aids, animal and human rights, fairly traded goods & the environment. I am just dying to travel as I have dreamed of this since I was sixteen and have finally decided to jack in the initial year long travel plans (the money just never seems to get saved) & go for a shorter 8 months instead & do Oz, New Zealand & SE Asia. South America will have to wait for a second trip hopefully :)
Have now done Australia, New Zealand, Singapore & Malaysia & am now in Thailand. I have just had the best time ever and would just love to keep going but alas my time will soon be up. I have another month or so in Thailand and then about 40 or so days for Vietnam and Laos & then home I go. It all depends how long my money lasts as the British economy is not doing very well at the moment and the pund has weakened substantially so I am sure that I will not have enough time to do the full trip but will perhaps have to lose Cambodia. Shall see how I do as I go along, Hoping that is the only casualty and if so then so be it. It too will have to wait for next time.
