OK, we have no idea

I'm starting to get the feeling Bindi and I aren't the world's best backpackers. We just don't think of the little things. Like checking we have the right adapters before we leave England. Or if our professional-backpacker-ultra-cool-micorfibre towels need to be washed before use. Or bringing a brush, or a bag for our wet bathers, to the hammam. (Not to mention warm clothes for 16 degree temperatures.)

Consequently, I have a great haridryer taking up a large portion of my 55-litre backpack that I can't use, quite a lot of microfibre fluff on my body which is accentuated when moisturising, a wet bag and crazy hair. Expect a lot of scenery shots of this holiday.

Bindi has already named this holiday the 'back and forth holiday', for the number of times we have to go back to our room each day to recover things we didn't think about taking the first time we left.

On the other hand, really sensible and organised people do start to irritate me after a while. I think Bindi and I should get along just fine.

I mean, who wants to think about that boring stuff when there are so many wonderful daydreams to be had?
