Reflection. It is the time for reflection.
These past four weeks in London have been a wild ride. A trip down memory lane. A wake up call for the cost of living. A relaxing, exciting start to a beautiful holiday. Leaving home and moving to a new city can sometimes be daunting, although when you have great friends here and you are with a significant other, it makes it feel like home. The transition was so seamless that I often forgot I was in London altogether, minus the weather of course. It feels like home, not quite a holiday just yet as we are building towards the real beginning. During our time in London we have been fortunate enough to have met some incredibly humble and generous people that are in need of a thank you. Starting with Amanda, she opened her door to complete strangers and allowed us to live and base ourselves in her room while she was away. To Dan and Victoria Fernley, true friends of my parents, who have made every aspect of this trip less stressful, even enlisting their parents and their property to store our beautiful van. Lastly, to Jan, a beautiful woman who sold us Kermit, even leaving us with a bottle of champagne to toast our new adventure. Without these incredible people Im sure we would't be driving away with such ease tomorrow.
Now our dream is knocking at our doorstep. The van is packed. All insurance is in place. There is nothing left to do but drive. Drive to Europe. The dream is becoming a reality. Materialising right in front of our eyes. Its happening. We are really about to drive around Europe. Tomorrow will we be in France and possibly even Belgium. This is it. Wish us luck. Au Revior. Arrivederci. Auf Wiedersehen. Adios.
Now to show you where we go from here
