Right so I leave tomorrow. 7am in the morning, to be precise.

How am I feeling? Very very very nervous and scared, but also incredibly excited. This is going to be amazing. You know when something happens in your life which changes it forever, this is one of those. I can’t believe it’s actually happening. Maybe it’s all a dream and I’ll wake up…

Things I envision could go wrong and my solutions:

• I get lost - well, I will pick up a map of every city I’m in, and I will mark on it where I am staying. I have a document of directions to all my places of staying. I can always ask someone
• I lose my money - credit/debit cards. Emergency store of money.
• I lose my train ticket - I will break down and cry. Erm, after that, I’ll go to the train station, British embassy, sort it out.
• I lose my camera - I’ll buy another one
• I lose my passport - British Embassy will have a visit from moi
• I get, um, mugged… - give them the old one-two
• I miss a train - duh, I get the next one! No problemo
• I slip and break my leg - free European health care ftw
• I lose my credit/debit cards - ring up and cancel them immediately, survive on what money I do have until they can send me a replacement. Hmm this one could be tricky…
• I forget a German word for something vital - meh, they can get over it.
• I miss home - meh, I’ll be back soon enough.

I’ll try and put another update up where and when I can See you all later x
