That's it... we're home! We landed at just after 7am this morning and, after collecting our bags, we headed back to Bristol from Heathrow at just after 8am in the back of Mum and Keith's car. We pulled up outside June's house at almost 10.30am and everyone met us on the driveway, which was awesome. Nikki cried - making June cry, which made my Mum cry... OBVIOUSLY!We've had the most amazing twelve months! We've been to some fantastic places, met some wonderful people and made some brilliant friends! We've put on loads of weight (in America) and then lost it all (and more) again in Asia. I've had ONE haircut all year. We've jumped out of planes, I bungee jumped, we've slept in a campervan around New Zealand and in the Outback, where we also camped out in the open in Swags. We went to the final of American Idol, learnt to ski and scuba dived on the Great Barrier Reef. Then there was Asia, which was spectacular - so sad at times, but overall VERY, VERY eye-opening and, more importantly, great fun! We've got some crazy memories and some even better stories.
It's been a blast - but now it's time for the next adventure... whatever that may be?
THE END...

Hi Nikki and Ben,
I have planned to write a comment many times but never did it.. We had met in phang nga bay, It's Clem from France, and Yusuf from Turkey :-). You had gave us some good tips about the P guesthouse in Krabi, and so, we followed your advices. And loved it, thanks. We just stayed 2weeks and a half, but miss it so much. I can't imagine what is the feeling after one year.
Happy to see that everything ended well for your crazy trip.
Hope we'll meet again one day, call us if you come by Istanbul...
See you. Yusuf&Clem
