Planning to travel....

We're starting to plan out trip more seriously - I borrowed some guide books from work covering South East Asia and East Africa. Here's a great recipe for a saturday afternoon - take guide books to the pub, add a couple of beers or coffees and the pull-out sections from the paper, mix with enough rain to stop you walking back home after the first drink then let it all sit for a few hours. Delicious.

Was searching for some information about Tajikistan the other day (as you do), and came across this site which has photos from a trek through the mountains there, and from Samarkand and Bukhara. Looks like an incredible place to visit. The site also has great photos from other excellent trekking regions, including the Himalaya and the Andes.

Only a fortnight to go until I jack in my job....
