Back To Work (booooo!)

Well, the year has just changed from 2008 to 2009 and Mandi and I have been back in the UK for just under 8 months. We typed up our last few blogs around a week after we finished our trek in Nepal (understandably there were few opportunities to update the blog on the remote trails of the Rowlaling!) but then lost all momentum when we returned home and couldn't bring ourselves to publish them as it would be the last act of an amazing trip and would feel like it was finally over. But, we've had a few people asking when they would be able to read the last few entries, and with the Christmas break there was time to spare for spending a few minutes on the computer and updating the site - plus with the New Year arriving we should be looking forward not thinking back to what we were doing this time last year (which has been happening a lot in the last few months!). So with that, we've finally published the last few blogs from immediately after the trip, and updated the site to finish the journey. Unfortunately the last few blogs are slightly out of order as Mandi and I typed them seperately when we got home, but I'm sure you'll still be able to follow them!

We had an amazing time from Nov 07 to May 08, it is something that we'll never forget. It was filled with unbelievable experiences and we came home energised and motivated (just not motivated to update the site and finally bring closure to the trip) and are now looking forward to the challenges ahead and the opportunties they will bring. We hope that you enjoyed following us on our journey through the blogs and the photos. We have also created a half an hour highlight video that we will try and publish to the betterthanwork.com site.

It was an amazing six months, I would say a once in a lifetime trip but we have every intention of making sure we don't just do this once. There are (hopefully) plenty more years ahead, and plenty more adventures and experiences to fill them with, so watch this space!

Until next time....

Thanks
Steve and Mandi
