Well we’re on the road again and thought we’d write a quick update to
inform you all of our websites where you can follow our travels.

The story so far…

Many of you will know that Nathan and I left Australia’s beautiful
shores about this time last year to head off on a journey across half
the world overland from Singapore to Germany. (see
http://triptracker.net/trip/1420/ for our travel journal) After a
successful semester together in Tübingen, in the south of Germany,
Nathan and I parted ways for second semester. Nathan flew back to
Brisbane to continue the academic year while I caught the train laden
with bags to Osnabrück in the north west of Germany for a four Month
internship at the German Federal Environment Foundation (see www.dbu.de
<http://www.dbu.de> and click the British flag for an English
translation, or my blog for sporadic posts from my time there
www.ellie.madteckhead.com <http://www.ellie.madteckhead.com>)

Both Nathan and I benefited greatly from the time spent in our
respective corners of the globe. We made some great new friends and both
had very successful semesters.

The very romantic end to our time apart came jut two days ago when
Nathan arrived in Delhi, India after an epic 3 day trip stopping over in
Darwin, Singapore, and Chennai (the cheapest connection we could find
though certainly not the best for the climate!). I had a relatively
peaceful and stress free trip in comparison (direct flight Frankfurt –
Delhi), leaving a day after Nathan and arriving a day before him. I had
the pleasure of a 4AM arrival at the dilapidated concrete box that is
Indira Gandhi International Airport, Delhi and made my way to the hotel
and started sussing things out.

So long story short, we’ve met in the middle (India) to spend yet
another summer holiday checking out a corner of this bizarre and
beautiful planet. Nathan has already gotten right to work snapping
photos like a madman. You can see them as soon as we can edit and upload
them, along with our journal entries on out travel journal
http://triptracker.net/trip/2721/ . If any of the photo’s really jump
out at you let us know! When we get back we’ll be selling them printed
beautifully on canvas at the markets :)

We have an Indian mobile number for your sms-ing pleasure +919958460163.
Otherwise our web presence is ever growing (thanks to Nathan’s handy
work which he also gladly sells):

Please checkout our trip and email or make comments. We’re always
thrilled when we hear from people. Especially when they have travel tips
for us.

I’d better be off for now. We have a train to catch tonight (our first
Indian train!!) but we’re looking forward to hearing from you!

Much love
Ellie
