Mongolia

Ben Cale is a polite young Englishman with an outragous zest for travelling. He is currently teaching English in Korea but his favorite trip was to Mongolia. It was aimless wandering that led him there in an 8 seater soviet era bus from China with 20 people inside it took over 25 hours.
He hurded yacks accross a mountain range without any local help and even ate an entire goat. :) Amazing Stuff.

Brisbane to Burma in a Land Cruiser Part 1 of 2

Amy De La Hunty is no ordinary English backpacker. She has a crazy zest for life and adventure. This interview Proves it.
 
The orriginal plan was to go from Brisbane via boat to KL in Malaysia and then drive all the way to Europe via Packistan, Afghanistan and Russia. Thank my lucky stars they never got that far; they were planning to go through the Swat Valley one of the most dangerous places on earth, somewhere that no westerner could or should ever set unprotected foot in.
