"I've ticked a lot off my bucket list in the last 4<br />
months, I celebrated Christmas on a beach on<br />
Magnetic Island, took a selfie with a kangaroo,<br />
went diving on the Great Barrier Reef, went to a<br />
surf camp in Arrawarra, visited the<br />
Whitsundays, hiked the Tongariro Crossing<br />
through the mountains for 22 kilometres and<br />
visited Mt Doom from Lord from the rings - I<br />
couldn?t help but cry when I got to the top<br />
because it was so beautiful. I?ve been kayaking<br />
at Abel Tasman, climbed a glacier, skydived at<br />
Mission Beach, danced at a silent disco on the<br />
beach in Byron Bay, watched a ping pong show<br />
in Bangkok (which is crazy!). We hired a scooter<br />
in Pai, drank beers on the Mekong River, went<br />
tubing in Vang Vieng and did mushroom shake. I<br />
was ripped off pretty badly at the Cambodian<br />
border but I got to visit Angkor Wat which was<br />
incredible.<br />
I had to sign up to couch surfing because my<br />
travel agent booked my hostel a week late and I<br />
had nowhere to go. I ended up having the best<br />
time! He took us to secluded areas and beaches,<br />
introduced us to his friends and I had such a<br />
local experience. It was amazing. I am so<br />
grateful"<br />
"We met online on a website which helps you<br />
find a travel buddy. We hung out a few times<br />
and even met each others parents first! We<br />
have definitley learnt and overcome a lot the<br />
past two months. We have crashed two<br />
scooters, broken a big toe and come down<br />
with a stomach flu. Then my wallet and phone<br />
were stolen while skinny dipping; leaving us<br />
with only one cash card, which we then broke<br />
in Java so we didn't have any money for 4<br />
days. We've had to escape an army of bed<br />
bugs in the middle of the night & have been<br />
taken on a 3 hour journey on the back of a<br />
police scooter only to realise they could not<br />
help us because they didn't have a form in<br />
English. Unfortunately I (pictured right)<br />
punctured my lung in our last scooter crash<br />
and have to fly home to Denmark today. I'm<br />
sad to be leaving but we have had so much<br />
fun despite everything that's happened! Its<br />
been quite an adventure to say the least"
