Thanks! Cool just added you to Facebook. Great to know I will ‘virtually’ know some people before I leave! Yeah I am leaving Sydney on 1 July and staying in London with a friend of mine from the 2nd until the tour starts. Back in London for a few days before flying back on the 3rd. What about you guys?

Hey Jodes, I’m from Perth in sunny WA. I’ll be hanging with Brad in hongkong on the way over to London before the tour and then hitting up my mates wedding about a week after it. Haven’t really planned out the details just yet. Have you been on a contiki before? Travelled much?

Hey Rob, your plans sound great. Haven’t travelled all that much other than the NZ Grand adventurer Contiki 3 years ago. Best holiday ever! Excited to get over to Europe and see more of the world! Doesn’t look to be that busy on the forum for this trip as yet! Hopefully more people will join in soon enough.

I’m not surprised there’s isn’t much response on the forums.. they’re kind of difficult to navigate. I did the New Zealand Grand Explorer in 2007 it was really good for adventure sports (snowboarding and black/white water rafting were awesome) but far too short. You can find me on facebook as one of Brad’s friends too but we’ll have to keep posting about how great the 9th July Vista trip will be so people can find us easily ;-)

Hey Kass welcome to what is quite possibly going to be the greatest contiki trip in history :D
Are you travelling with a group? have you done a contiki before? Doing anything awesome before / after the tour?
…and most importantly was the thread easy to find? ;)Rob

Hi Kass, Seems like i will be the last to welcome you onboard for this tour. The other two seem to be way to quick to respond either that or i spend to much time at work. Seems like they have also asked enough questions.
Once again welcome and bring on July i say.- 0 people like this

Cool.. always good to meet another snowboarder. I’ve never been to Canada or America but I really want to, I hear the snow is amazing. Did the last 2 seasons in Japan it’s not really steep but the powder is supposedly the best in the world and I’d believe it. Other then that and New Zealand mentioned above I’ve been to England/Scotland and done Western Europe (2 different trips). As for plans after the tour.. I have a wedding to attend and if I can manage to not come back I will but so far I’ll be returning on the 7th.
Will your mate be joining our forum madness? or are we welcoming him/her through you?- 0 people like this

Hey Emily, welcome!! Excited now we are starting to get the numbers up there! I’m from Newcastle so we are basically neighbors! This will be my second Contiki but first one doing it solo. A little nervous but feeling a lot better having “met” you all!
