8 countries in 6 weeks you do the maths

The plan is leaving London to Bangkok, Bangkok overground to Cambodia (hoping we clear the border with no problems), Cambodia to Vietnam, Vietnam to Singapore, Singapore to Bali, Bali to Australia, Australia to New Zealand, New Zealand to Hong Kong and Hong Kong back to London. Don't ask me how I will be feeling coming back, but preparing to embark on this journey feels great.
So we were going to backpack it. But the only backpacks in sight are our bags, otherwise we are flying everywhere and travelling in stye.
