[The expenses at the back of the journal covered RJS's whole trip with separate and joint expenses listed. At the beginning when they were on a walking tour they travelled dressed in local clothing, blue blouses, capes and caps and had little to carry, but when he was on his own later he was buying for the shop, travelling from place to place by public transport, paying for overweight luggage and buying two trunks along the way. He took £90 with him and kept a meticulous record of what they spent.]
