Globetrotting Gleesons

Interlude in the Seychelles

Following a pretty hectic 5 months on the road, we thought we needed a bit of a mini-holiday, so took ourselves off to the Seychelle Islands for a week. 

We didn’t do a great deal (that was the point), unless you count ambling to nearby beaches or rocking-up at the nearest beach bar for a cold beer or cocktail. So no lengthy rambling on for this post. We’ll just let the pictures do the talking…..

Not surprisingly, we’re feeling somewhat more relaxed now…. Probably a good job, as we’ve now got a full-on stint in Russia for a month on the Trans-Siberian railway (hopefully) !

Looks like some well deserved downtime and so lovely to actually see Helen in some of the photos, just need to see Simon too .
I’m so happy to be following you on your adventures (you are both much braver than I am especially those earlier scary roads). X.
