In 2002 my family and I left England after nearly six years of living and working in “ol’ blighty” and headed home to Australia. But we didn’t head straight home on a plane or something, we decided to take “the scenic route” - we traveled around Europe for four months, then headed over to the US for two months and then back to Australia.
So earlier today I randomly decided to go back to my diary from this year and start reading it again - just to get me back in the mood of traveling.
Since I’ve been reading my earlier diary, I’ve decided to start posting My Old Journal entries so you can all read through my previous travels. I’ll start tomorrow with Tuesday June 11th, 2002, and finish on December 6th, 2002. I won’t just rewrite my diary entries though, I’ll use both my diary entries and my memory as well as my new knowledge, now that I’m older, to help recount the six months we traveled for in interesting, engaging detail. I’ll also try to post a few pictures by scanning the photos from our old photo albums.
Look forward to reading all about my first long-haul travel adventure starting tomorrow!
