Welcome to our travel blog. We are Tabitha and Nic. In 2011 we 'retired' in our early 40s and set off to travel the world. We spent our first year in South America and have been lucky enough to make two trips to Antarctica.

Our blog is a record of our travels, thoughts and experiences. It is not a guide book, but we do include some tips and information, so we hope that you may find it useful if you are planning to visit somewhere we have been. Or you may just find it interesting as a bit of armchair travel.

Packing

It's a sorting and packing day today, as we leave the flat in the morning to join the Dragoman group at the hotel. Have to say goodbye to civilised clothes and my handbag, as there is mo room for that kind of stuff in the rucksack. I've never worn a fleece before, so that we be another new experience!

Looking forward to this next stage of the trip, albeit a little nervous. 79 days with a group of people is fine if you get along but as yet I have no idea who they are and what they'll be like. Just hope they're a good mix of people and don't get too exasperated with my fussy eating habits when it's their turn to cook!

Will be in Buenos Aires till Saturday morning and then we have our first 300km drive to Rosario. Typical though, our first night of camping is Saturday and it's the one day this week when they've forecast rain! Hmmm.

    Hi Amy. Thanks for the message. We have met with the group today and they seem like a nice bunch, so hopefully it will be good.
