Wooo hoooooo! We have arrived after the shortest plane journey of our lives, it took off, I flicked through the awful Ryanair magazine, and we landed. We have said goodbye to our family and friends and are now sitting in a Dutch living room and starting to realise what we've let ourselves in for.
We are currently just outside of Amsterdam staying with Hannah's family friend Bridgette (who is absolutley lovely) and we have been looking on the internet at hostels in Berlin. We got a bit carried away and booked one only to realise that it was an hour and a half walk from the main station. DUN DUN DAHHH. Not going to happen with our huge rucksacks. What are we like!? We then started going a little bit mad with tiredness but luckily Bridgette came to the rescue and calmed us down and so now we have decided to relax and watch some llama's having sex. Its a veternary programme I promise (dutch TV is strange). Eariler we watched a gameshow programme called Pain Game. It involved a fat guy in leather. Enough said.
All in all we are both feeling extremely excited and a bit spaced-out. It's soooo exciting thinking about all the stuff we have to come.
Well that's that for now. Cheers for reading :)

The night before.
Hey you!
I have decided to write this blog about the trip me and my lovely friend Hannah are embarking on across Europe because I think it will be a good way to document what we get up to for y'all and it will be nice to look back on.
I am writing this the night before we leave for our first port of call, Amsterdam. I have packed and unpacked and packed and unpacked a hundred times and I am about 87% sure I have what I need.
Our plane leaves at 5pm from Stanstead tomorrow so I might have time for one last speedy repacking session (just in case)
Hannah has been worrying about our trip (and to be honest, so have I) but I had a phone call with her this evening and both of us are feeling a lot more excited rather than nervous now! It's going to be such an adventure!
We had a party last night to say goodbye to our friends which was absolutely fab and so much fun, we will both miss them lots during our holiday but will no doubt see them tons when we return.
So, that's my first post. Bit boring. They will get more exciting as we visit crazy exotic destinations rather than writing the post from not-so-exciting Burgess Hill.
Thanks for reading and keep checking up on this page for another update.
