About Us

We are "of a certain age" - you know, we have joined the throng of people taking a "Middle Aged Gap Year." 

Our motto is:  Do it while you can, because you don't know what's round the corner  !

We found that it´s initially hard to let go of some of the stuff you accumulate, and whittle down your belongings to a few essentials for the duration of the trip.  However, far from wishing we had brought more stuff, we are really thinking we could/should have brought less. It is nice to just live simply with a few possessions, and make the most of the things that are free: the landscape, people you meet and things you see, and so on.
