    Halfway around the world in 1 year

    Welcome to Sotje62 ! My blog intends to make the world a smaller place. Automatically and real-time, the blog traces Beatriz and myself's whereabouts, it might just tell you a thing or 2 that interests me - therefore not you, that's the privilege of having a blog - but read new blogs on the top and click on the pictures in the side bar to see older blogs, the blog,and Beatriz and I hope you grow a good 'travel' appetite. Sotje62 travel blog is in Vlaams (donker gekleurd) and in English (light coloured). So read what you understand and again what you like.

    Like you know the safe route home after a night out, the Chinese know the way to get around their Internet police. So I was surprised, after trying so many times to log into facebook, that the Chinese guy next to me asked me if I want to get into facebook. It must a common problem with foreigners not to know the inside info, that the Chinese guy offers me the work-around on a plate. The work-around is called hotspot shield and works like a proxy. For more details I play stupid.

    Other blocked websites in China are Youtube and BBC News on China and apparently 10% of all websites. I even thought my blog was blocked for a moment, but the hardware of bloggen.be was under service so it was false alarm.

    Miljaarrrrde !! I tried to add some pictures our pics in Beijing but it failed again :-( maybe more luck later. To make up I try to attach 3 pics on this blog, you should click below this blog to open them.

    1st: Me with the surroundings of the forbidden city in the back.
    2nd: Bea on the Wangfujing diaje, the high street of Beijing.
    3rd: Rainy Beijing. Every day it rains. The rain floods the city in just a few hours.

    16.09.09. Half-Round the world in 1 year / Kick off. 9th of April 2009, Mumbai, India’s biggest city, is our best destination to take the train south to Goa, Kerala and Bangalore. From there we go 4,000 km by train back to north India, see Karnataka, Rajasthan, the Taj Mahal, Varanasi and Nepal. In Nepal we do small treks in the Himalayas and visit Kathmandu. Over de friendship highway, the route goes from Kathmandu to Lhasa by jeep, maximum altitude 5250m and we get to see the Mount Everest. In Lhasa we take the train through China, see the Terracotta warriors in Xi'an, and go 3,500m north to enter Mongolia and arrive in Ulan Bator. In Mongolia we camp in the Khovsgol area near the Russian Siberia, and renew the Chinese Visa to go back south. The clock says 4 months when we trained through China and see Yunnan, South China with its wonderful terraced rice fields. We enter the tropics and after 6 months travels we are in Vietnam. 2 months after that, we should have seen Angkor, the beaches in Thailand & Maleysia ...<e.d. 25.10.09. There is a change of plan after Angkor: we fly from Bangkok to Manila, we go to the Philippines!!> and on a ferry to Indonesia.  From either Kuala Lumpur or Bangkok, we find our way to Sydney and work for 3 months. We will have traveled for 1 year when we are in Oz and ... and ... and ... that is how far we planned. But we were supposed to come back in 1 year but we are only half around the world. Beatriz and myself love Asia!! So much for planning ahead and scheduling. Let's just see how we get on and the more exciting our trip will be. Wish us good luck on the trip!!
