Travel plans

So I've done it.

The first part of my 2010 travel plans are now official. In March 2010 I am heading out on a round the world ticket, and in the best traditions of throwing oneself into the deep end, I'm kicking things off in Africa.



To start, a 2 week tour of Rwanda and Uganda, where, amongst other things, I get to trek out and visit the few remaining wild gorillas. I then head to Nairobi where I will kick off a 45 day trip down to Capetown, following the route below:

After that? Whatever the hell I want. I have a flight to London. Eventually I fly through to Jordan and I'll take a cheeky jaunt through the land of whimsy that is the Middle East.

Until then I'm going to be quite pre-occupied with a host of preparatory activities- getting visas, immunisations for yellow fever, packing and moving out of my flat.
