Thank you peeps... Can't quite believe just yet. Although I will say it's amazing what you can achieve when you put your mind to it!!!

Absolutely fantastic, I'm still working through your diary so as mentioned you're still going to help so many people through their challenges.

I hope you enjoy the feeling and best wishes on your next adventures.

Wishing you all the luck in the world, C x

Is it weird that my celebration is staying in, with moggy and a dinner of chips, sausages and peas... in my book that's a bit naughty so a "treat"... oh and I just bought a jar of gherkins...

See I am living life on the edge.... least my appetite is coming back...

Congratulations NSK.

I have only "known" you for a couple of months but you have been so inspirational and have made a real difference to my thinking and the way I live my life. Thank you so much, I really cannot express how grateful I am

Awwww you guys are so lovely! I couldn't have done it without you all though! Every single one of you - even the ones I have only known a few months - have been imperative in my debt free journeying and made it all worthwhile...

My 5 year sabbatical has been approved.

It almost slipped through the net with all this debt freedom excitement.

So on the 1st October 2014 I will be leaving my job. The plans will be entirely unravelled in the next diary but for now I plan to transport minimal amounts of items (de-cluttering in progress), and my cat via friends who said they will hire a camper van and drive me over. I will also have to sell my motorbike. It doesn't seem viable keeping it in storage and I want no physical ties to the UK.

My friends will stay with me and my family for a few weeks and we will travel around Northern Ireland a bit and I will stay with my parents for a month. From there the world is my oyster....South East Asia and on to Australia... from there I am open to suggestions...

I will be hooking up with my church wherever possible and working as much as I can as a volunteer in exchange for food and lodgings.. living on a basic sum and stretching my money as far as I can.

I will hook up with the Tran-Siberian Railway again and explore countries on my own... the Lord will be my guiding light...

So there you go.. that's my plan. I just need a lot of money first.

Have been following your journey from the sidelines but called in to say :beer: Well done hunny, you have done an amazing job and inspired a lot of others to do what they can to make their lives easier by battling their debts. You are amazing and I hope you sabbatical is everything you want it to be. Hugs Ginny
