I got an email yesterday from Wil and Rachel Edmonds, a cute couple i met in December 2002. They had both saved money (~$8,000US ea) for a one year holiday to travel around the world... they were on month ten when i met them. From England, they had started in the Pacific - Thailand and worked their way around to Belize, where i met them. We were in San Ignacio Belize, ~seven miles from Guatemala.
i was travelling through Belize, Guatemala and scuba diving. Wil and Rachel were on their way north through Mexico and then around the USA before flying back home. i enjoyed visiting with them and hearing their story.
It was great to get an email from them after so long. I'll update here if i get further word and hear the rest of their story.
