According to my time hop app I first started properly planning my trip to America exactly a year ago today and tomorrow I fly!
My flight is at 3.20 pm so I'm currently staying with Chloe in preparation.
My bag is packed minus a few items
My hand luggage is altogether and I can print my boarding pass in 2 hours time so it'll start to feel properly real. Gahhhh!!
Until I started typing this post it didn't feel quite real. Now I'm crazy excited.
I promise to blog as much of my adventure as possible.
But first I wanted to introduce my best friend... Kate

Valentines trip to Ghana 2011 |
Kate is 23 and lives in America (obviously). We met on our gap year in London and struck up a friendship pretty much straight away (she called me precious and I knew we'd be friends for life) We share a mutual love of food, dogs and being sarcastic.
Kate last came to stay a year after our gap year towards the end of my first year of university so it has been over 2 years since we last saw each other!
I'm so excited.
So, travellers alike. What are your airport travel tips? What should I ensure is in my hand luggage? What should I make sure I've packed?
Until next time...
(Sorry if I've posted twice... the last one seemed to disappear!) Have a great time out there - take plenty of photos to blog about when you come home! Can't wait to read about it :)
ReplyDeleteHi Nick. That seems to be a common theme with blogger!!! Thank you so much. will be blogging photos and details as I go and probably do a mass post at the end too! :-)
DeleteWhere in America are you going?? I loved it there! Just trying to think of tips but guess it depends where you're going tbh :)

I'm spending three weeks in Kentucky and road tripping to North Carolina. So any tips welcome in Aug my boyfriend is doing a Kontiki tour from West to East so I'm sure he'd welcome the tips too. Not as epic as your adventure. xx
