Hey everyone
After a very sad morning saying goodbye to everyone (wahhhhhhh!), I´ve actually left the homeland and am sitting in the departures lounge of my transit cit - Taipei. Only another 23 hours (I´ve already been sitting on my heiny for 9 hours...) until I reach Europe - Amsterdam to be precise.
I´m feeling very chuffed with my technological skills at the moment, as I´ve actually managed to connect to a wifi connection in a foreign country. I´m just hoping a super nerd isn´t hacking into my computer as I type this (that´d be a bit of a bummer...).
I´m not really sure how I´m feeling about this whole traveling business. While in theory it seems all fun and exciting, I´m actually not feeling that great about it. A bit sad, a bit lonely. It´s all well and good to plan these things with great aspirations in mind, but when it all boils down to it, it´s a bit nerve-racking. Probably wouldn´t be so hard if I had someone here with me, but hey, it´s ´character building´, right?
I just spoke with Mum on Skype - for those of you who don´t know what Skype is, it´s this super awesome program that lets you talk face to face via webcam over the internet for free! It was so great to talk to them, especially when I´m feeling a bit sad.
So... what else can I say that´s not sad? I watching some cool movies on the plane - Leatherheads, Forrest Gump, some Discovery Channel. I also watched half of Kung Fu Panda (not a cool movie...). Something else that´s cool is the Hello Kitty departure lounge they have here! I´ll put a photo up later.
Anyways, not much else to say! Hopefully I make it to Amsterdam in one piece. I´ve just discovered they´ve changed my boarding gate without telling me, and we´re making an unscheduled stop in Bangkok - which I was completely unaware of. It´s not a good sign when your flight it flashing red on the departures board... Better go find Tourist Info desk.
Hit me up with some love! My vegemite is in my checked in luggage, so I need to get that warm fuzzy Aussie feeling elsewhere
Talk soon!
Love Hayley xxx
