Streamlining: a thorough haircut has certainly taken a load off my mind. Doing summer in both the southern and northern hemispheres sequentially with a ponytail of thick, heavy hair just didn't seem like a good idea, so now I'm down to easily maintained (and very light) stubble.
Networking: Setting up Dopplr account will hopefully encourage serendipitous contact with other travellers - running into Tim in Vancouver is the immediate target.
Working: Slightly overwhelmed by the options available for working in The Netherlands. The Undutchables have some good work permit information, but it sounds like contacting potential employers directly is the best way to go. So anyone looking for a Python developer with Zope, Pylons and Plone experience should leave a comment...

To begin at the beginning...
Flights are booked, departure day is set - May 8th, 2008.
My intrepid partner Mandy and I will be visiting friends, seeing sights, working and playing our way around the world for up to twelve months - visiting Auckland, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Vancouver, London, Paris, Amsterdam and Bangkok.
We decided that we'd like to chronicle our progress, for friends and future reference - thus a blog (and pictures will be available on my Picasa account.)
Wish us luck - the adventure is just beginning. :)
