It’s two days before we head off on our adventure. We have not yet packed or made a full plan of what we will do in the upcoming months. Our plans are changing like the wind as each idea grows into its own leg of the journey and I am very excited to see what will come our way.

It’s two days before we head off and Alona’s injured. She fell down a flight of very shiny polished stairs in her brand news slippery socks. She has hurt her ‘tailbone’ and can’t sit down or stand up without looking like a melted welly. I know when she is standing up as I can hear the bleat of an injured sheep come out her mouth.

It’s two days before we head off and I have said most of my goodbyes. We saw all our friends at the weekend for our leaving do. As I bid them goodbye and mascara ran down my face I wondered when the next time we would meet would be and what will have changed. 

It’s two days before we head off and the weather is getting hotter. The beautiful city of Bratislava is full of people having coffee all along the street, the familiar buildings twinkle, the trams fly past full of summer dresses, the walk to work is full of green trees and short grass and as I walk through the streets I walked for years I am reminded of all the memories I will forever hold onto.

It’s two days before we head off time to back my bag, get rid of my house keys say the last goodbyes and hope for the best.

I don't know how to make this picture smaller....
