POST-DIPLOMA PLAN
mel, mel and I have come up with plans for after we get our diploma.
we decided, that we shall go backpacking! it'll be just super fun! we've a whole list of places to go, but so far, these are the 3 we've kept on mentioning.
1.) Sweeden (Mel's idea)
2.) Spain (My idea)
3.) Germany (Mel and Mel's idea)
we wanted to put Alaska into the choices too, but then, we realized that it would be a bit dangerous. though if i died just after seeing the Nothern Lights, i would probably die rather contented.
so, the plan now is, to take a plane to a really obscure city in any of the countries. at first, we wanted to be placed into just some wilderness, but after me knocking sense into Mel's head, we agreed that it'd be kinda dumb, to traverse grass for 4 weeks at a go.
so back to the plan. after we land at the really obscure city, we'll backpack! hitch-hiking and hiking from city to city, soaking in the culture, taking in the sights and appreciating the sounds. this will happen ALLLL the way till we reach the capital city of the country. then, there's more.
we'll plan our journey such that the day we arrive in the capital, will be the day before a MAJOR festival in that country!
like OcktoberFest in Germany or Mardi Gras in Spain. it'll be such fun!
of course, we'll bring money to buy funny stuff along the way. such as cool hats and weird ornaments. then there's cash for lodging and the ticket back home!
and! mum said that this idea of ours was quite cool! of course, there was the 'better watch yourselves' and all, but mum say's that if i work to earn a bit of cash for myself to finance the trip, she'll support!
seriously, it'd be so fun.
now! all that's left are 2 and a half more years till our adventure!
