Well guys it was the 18th October that I left London on a wet autumnal day to start this adventure and I really don’t know where the time has gone. I am convinced the older you get the quicker time passes. I must cut back on my sleep!
Highlights of the last six months? Well there are too many to list. Believe it or not running this web site has been a highlight and in a way it gives me the energy to carry on.
This trip is going to finish at the beginning of July. I should be home just in time to see England parade the World Cup in Trafalgar Square. 
I have booked my train ticket for the Perhentian Islands and I leave on Thursday evening from KL. I am really looking forward to it now because I have worked quite hard over the last week and it feels like a reward.
When you just travel it is easy to become quite blasé about places you are going to. Oh another tropical island! Another temple! I think when you work and travel it lessens the travel fatigue that one might get after 6 months away.
Thank you to all those who have contributed to the WN forum. It seems to be going really well and with a press release soon out I hope there will be a lot of newbies joining in and sharing their knowledge.
I was going to put a photo up with this post but as you are all probably aware, I ain’t got any! (and I only have myself to blame)

What are you going to do when you go back to the UK?

The millions dollar question!
Well it will be back to my official UK residence (thanks Mum!) for a few weeks while I make some plans and look at buying somewhere to live, probably around Suffolk.
In terms of work I hope to continue running my web sites.
I also hope to work with some travel adventure companies on the web promotion side of things.
It is early days but I already have a short trip to Africa planned with one such company.
When my e-book sells it’s 10,000th copy then I’ll be retiring anyway

Off to the Perhentians? You lucky bugger :p It’s a glorious location! I have never seen water so clear or sand so white. Enjoy a bbq’d shark in the evening for me, won’t you… I can recommend “Matahari Chalets” for accomodation, just off from the beach from the big(?) island. I recommend booking some accommodation in advance to save the backpacker scramble/trudge between (full) places. If you’re interested , my Prehentians experiences are here: http://www.yearinthelife.org/entry.php?id=243
Have fun
cheers
