Overland 2011

I set off in the beginning of March from London, England, and am trying to get as close to New Zealand as possible without taking any flights. No bookings, no travel agents, no plans, no PLANES! Just me, my backpack and 40,000+kms between here and home.

Status: FAILED! I made it from London to Penang in Malaysia without flying. 270 days, 44,620kms, 905 hours in transit, all overland.
