In the beginning

OK, so my first travel blog come direct from the tropical climes of...my bedroom. I'm currently trying to motivate myself to actually start packing (perhaps I should start, i've only got a day and a half!) Its quite a skill as well, trying to balance taking enough stuff, without weighing myself down and being able to travel light without frogetting something! I'm actually quite nervous about the whole adventure, what with Crete being the furthest ive been away before. I'm relishing the oppurtunity to get out and see Australia though. Expect many more blog entries and long emails with blatantly palgarised titles!
