1. In the Beginning...

The idea of completing such an adventure first happened back in 1998 when both Zowi & I lived in Sydney, Australia.

Zowi was a student at Sydney University and I was travelling in Australia on a working holiday Visa.

A mutual friend suggested that he would one day drive from Oz to the UK. Everyone laughed and told him he was bonkers, completely mad.  We parted ways with our friend so I don't know if he did the journey in the end, but a seed was definitely planted...
