My Travel Story

by: Ellis Thompson Start Date: Feb 25, 2016 - End Date: Nov 24, 2016
OK! So a while back one of my close friends left the country, moved some 9,000 miles away to Vietnam! At the time I was away, living on a greek island for a few months, do the shock of coming back and finding she had left was... surprising to say the least. For a while we joked about one of us going out of our way to  see the other yet neither of us could fund such a trip.
About a month ago I landed a job which while the pay is awful my freedom to travel and work is incredible, all I need is a laptop and the urge (and funds) to go away.
So I got incontact with my friend and naturally the talk of visiting each other arose again exept this time it was more focused on me going to see her. We started to plan and look into things and we soon realised that the prospect of me going over was quite real. Next year...
This is ok but that means I will not have seen her for over two years. More so it is her 21st on the 5th of December and I had this idea of surprising her for her birthday and as her christmas perssent, this means that I couldn't see her next year but all is well.
I'm not optamistic about the full ammount I need to visit her this year, but if one does not try one does not do! So in all hope that I could raise something, every little helps!
