I found this little fella trying to hide from me on the beach in Fiji.

What’s the plan Stan?

I’ve had a lot of messages and e-mails asking me how I am and what my travel plans are. As much as I love repeating myself I thought it would be best to post an update.

It’s been a few weeks since my accident. Whether it’s down to my positive thinking or due to the fact I am awesome (probably the latter) I have made a rather speedy recovery, much to physiotherapists surprise and dismay I am sure. (He charges $150 an hour).

I can’t say that I am 100%. Most of the time I am fine but on occasion I will have a bit of pain but that’s to be expected. Medically speaking I have been given the all clear and am now free to continue on my merry way. Getting that bit of news actually confused me. I wasn’t expected to get better for another month or so and all of a sudden I am now free to leave Sydney. I’ve been using Sydney as my base to travel around Australia and it feels like home. It will be sad to leave. Onwards and upwards though!

So what’s the plan?

I will be reviewing a Shark Cage Diving trip in South Australia (Port Lincoln) so I am heading there next week. From there I will head across to Melbourne to catch a flight to New Zealand.

I thought I would post my itinerary here in case anyone was going to be around.

June & July – New Zealand (travelling from Christchurch to Auckland)

End of July – Fiji

Beginning of August – Vancouver

August – LA, San Diego, San Francisco, Las Vegas

September – New York

If you are going to be travelling these parts at the same time or better yet if you live there and want to show me around, let me know!

Just a further note that I will be on the road and therefore my internet access will be limited at times. I am also starting to write my eBook which means my posting schedule may be less frequent. It will all be worth it in the end though.
