The Cornish Travellers Year Away With Tehya

We are setting off on our south east Asia trip on the 28th march 2008. We managed a year abroad in 2000-2001 and visited a few remote places in Indonesia like Pulau Simeulue and its surrounding Islands.

This trip will have a few new challenges as we are going with our 3 year old daughter Tehya. We have decided to embark on this adventure before Tehya starts school (she should be starting in September 2008 but she only turns four in August - too young for full time education) and also to escape the depressing fact that we have zero prospects of ever purchasing a house in our beloved but expensive Cornwall.

Over the past seven years we have moved seven times due to either the properties being sold, the rental prices being increased or nightmare landlords! We’ve managed to save a few quid which was intended for a deposit on a house but considering our savings haven’t kept up with the 10% needed for a house, we will be spending it on our trip.
