Planning the UK and Euro Trip
Well…. for those of you who don’t know, my cousin Mara and I are heading off to the UK on 17 May this year (2007) to live, work, play, take side trips to Europe, meet some family members and also catch up with people I’ve met in Canada, Europe in 2005, and that both Mara and I met in New Zealand 2006.
This trip has been a long time coming, ever since Mara first suggested a few years ago that after she graduates from Uni she wants to go overseas for a while – well she’s graduated and the time is now!!!
February 2006 saw us heading for an extreme-sports filled ten days in New Zealand to test if Mara and I (as cousins) can get along well enough to survive the UK and Europe for a whole year (plus some no doubt). New Zealand was fantastic and well planned… this time we’ve been winging it so far, and are only just thinking about actually getting some plans made but neither of us are too worried (I’m thinking our parents are more stressed about the whole thing!)
The flights are booked.. we’re both looking at packs and suitcases, both hoping our passports (UK) will be on their way to us soon (cutting it fine!) and I’m starting to look at what clothes and especially what shoes will be suitable for working in London! What more needs to be done???

Allow me to remind you that flights to Canada from London are a mere $660 including taxes! I expect a visit from you at some point my dear and I promise that I will visit you as well! Hopefully all will work out and we will see each other come August as I’m ending my African adventure!
Miss you loads!
