Bye Bye America

Back at North Camp!

We have travelled through 24 US states and 1 Canadian, stayed in 30 different beds and covered over 23,000 miles in the last 9 weeks (including UK flights). We have driven 5,000 miles in 6 different cars, rode 2,500 miles on 2 trains and flown 16,000 miles in 6 planes! No wonder we’re knackered :).

We have had an amazing time and can’t actually believe how lucky we are to be able to do something like this, 9 weeks is a long time and we have really missed our families, especially in the last week. We look forward to seeing you all for some Domino’s pizza :).
