We should probably quickly explain this blog. We are two 18 year old girls, ready for university next year, but currently travelling around Asia. Starting in India, we will then move up towards Nepal, back into India, and fly into Thailand before also exploring Laos. We're pretty excited but three months is a long time! Due to popular demand (and parental anxiety) we have decided to write a blog. We won't post everyday and we will take it in turns to write a post. We hope that you will enjoy reading about our travels and that this will reduce the number of emails or calls from my (Mamie's) Mother.

To explain 'Step by Step'; 'Step by Step' is a song by a cheesy- but cute- boyband called 'Midnight Red'. I (Mamie) am obsessed with the song but Amy hates it. However, we have realised that the song is quite relevant to the trip and unfortunately for Amy, it's become a huge part of our daily lives. Oops!

Missing you all at home,

Mamie and Amy xx
