Today The Three Amigos got asked to lend a helping hand in a Bangkok Orphanage and of course the 3 of us said YES right away. I can't think of a better way to start off our trip.
Everyday is a new adventure
Tall one and Small one met in New Zealand, in the kiwi fruit orchards of Tauranga back in early 2009. From there spent 2 years travelling across Australia together; penniless in Sydney, 15 hour shifts in a Blue Mountains Hotel, picking Blueberries with spiders in Coff's Harbour – watermelons with snakes in Charters Towers, pushing their campervan, 'Tony' through the flood waters of Miriam Vale, breaking down in every state through the outback, and working and drinking side by side in an Irish Pub and Backpackers in Melbourne.
Across the globe through Vietnam, Thailand & Moscow before spending a year in Canada; through the seasons in Toronto, 35 hour Greyhound buses across the provinces, dog sledding in the Rocky Mountains, shovelling 3 foot snow in the Yukon, Kayaking in Haida Gwaii, sharing a beer among the icebergs of Newfoundland and spotting whales in Nova Scotia.
Before returning to New Zealand in Oct 2012 to live the beach life in Mount Maunganui, experience the earthquakes of Wellington and finally getting married on Te Ahumairangi Hill, Wellington in Oct 2013. Finally on 2nd Oct 2013 they embarked on an 80 day honeymoon back across the globe, through the south island of New Zealand, up to Singapore, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and finally through north India before returning to Ireland, where they are now attempting to make a home in Galway. Many miles travelled together, many sights shared together, everyday is the start of a new adventure.

Life is not all about you and I having fun. Lets help the ones who need it.
Today The Three Amigos got asked to lend a helping hand in a Bangkok Orphanage and of course the 3 of us said YES right away. I can't think of a better way to start off our trip.
The Three Amigos
Well that's us. The Three Amigos, Hedgo, Barno & Honey Bunny the Leprechaun. On Monday 29th Sept we booked our flights. We set off on Jan 27th. We head to Thailand for 3-4 weeks before then heading to Auckland. My plan is to spend 2 years in New Zealand before heading of to OZ for 2 years. Its only a wee plan, I'm sure it will change lots. The Three Amigos shall be meeting this Tuesday the 7th to plan the Thailand trip, so if any of you have any good ideas please let us know. Cheers guys.
Its official. Ireland is in the grip of a recession!
