Heya!

Welcome to the super spectacular blog of Sandie and Amanda :) Join us as we travel west on a roadtrip through Canada, and south through the Western USA; fly over to the wonderful South Pacific islands of Vanuatu; and make our way to New Zealand for adventures in WWOOFing and working.
Stay tuned, even we don't know what might come next...

Happy day 1...eve

Hello! and Hello!
from Sandie and Amanda :)

Writing our very first blog entry from the chilly streets of Winterpeg Mani(snow)ba (ha ha)- where August 16th tempertures are due to dip to a chilly 7 degrees tonight. All the more reason to leave first thing in the morning.

The destination? The sunny south Pacific island nation of Vanuatu- you know, where they filmed Survivor that one time- to be followed by an undetermined number of months in New Zealand for some WWOOFing (organic farming) and perhaps some paid work to fund further travels-- we'll see what happens!

Mode of transportation? Sandie's grandparent's abandoned (but still running!) Buick bound for the junkyard. So we thought, why not give this car one last grand adventure?

We'll be driving to explore the 'Land of Living Skies'; a jont through the rockies; a stopoff in the Olympic city; and a scenic drive down one of the most beauuuutiful highways in the USA, along the Pacific coast. So long as everything runs according to plan, with our Couch Surfing and camping, we'll be arriving in LA on the 26 to catch our 11:30pm flight.

Wish us lots and lots luck! We'll do our best to keep you posted on our misadventures and any discoveries we make along the way!






Stay tuned....:)
