On September 14, 2000 Fabienne and Ana departed for a 12-month trip around the world, bringing along with them very few clothes, only absolutely necessary toiletry and a very heavy camera.

I've created these pages to allow their friends and families to keep track of what they will be doing. Here, you'll find their itinerary, the provisional dates of their trips, as well as pics and reports as I will be receiving them. Stay tuned for more...

WHAT'S NEW
After a whole year of travels and adventures, Fabienne and Ana are finally back home. After a quick stop in the UK, they are now both back in France and Spain, respectively, where they're re-discovering the joy of work... The best of luck to them!

THE LAST PICS FROM THEIR TRIP ARE FINALLY ONLINE!

On the map below, you can check out the itinerary they'll be taking in the next 12 months. The red line shows you the rough itinerary, from London to Nepal, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, South America and back to London again.

[Hold your mouse over the map and find out what they'll be doing in that area]

You can send e-mails to Fabienne and Ana using the addresses below, or drop me a note and I'll forward it to them.

Fabienne: fbougant@hotmail.com

Ana: anapellus@hotmail.com

If you prefer snail mail, you can use PO boxes on their itinerary. Not too sure how it works, but according to Fafa, you can for instance send her a letter in Australia (from Dec 21) at:

Fabienne Bougant / Ana Pellus
Poste Restante (Aussies know what Poste Restante is??? Fafa?)
General Post Office
Sydney, Australia

Fafa says that you should use "Lista de Correos" in South America (where they apparently don't speak French...)
