That's travel for you. Congratulations on your "mile stone", or is that "kilometre stone". It's a great feeling and lifestyle. I'm in Charters Towers and have met some really nice fellow travellers, including another woman on her own, with her dog. Have to fit 2 new tyres to Roma on Wednesday before heading west to Richmond. Ah, the serenity!

I used to have a young fella working for me who's favourite saying was 'You cant do that in Afghanistan!' He would declare this when ever someone went on holiday or had a party or generally had a good time.
As far as travelling around in your car and van I think that he is right. Likely also right for any other place with 'stan' as its last syllable.
Well Clazanddazza, i would tend to disagree to a point. We spent 3 years living in Pakistan and travelled through the country extensively, not carravaning or camping but staying in really cheap places. My memories are of the most hospitable people I ever lived amongst. Certainly more hospitable than our allies the US of A, where we also spent 4 years
