It is almost here, we are leaving for S.E Asia in 9 days! I can't believe how quickly it's flown by.
I think it's fair to say say we have hit panic mode, and being stuck at work isn't helping (only 2 days left). Hopefully, we are almost ready, spending the last of our spare money, saying goodbye to our friends and trying to suck up to our boyfriends so they don't hate us for leaving (sorry boys).
We have somehow managed to spend a fortune on toiletries (thank god for savers and wilkinsons), because we need as girls few of everything just incase they don't have it there or we run out!!!!
the biggest challenge we are all facing and discussing (a lot) is trying to fit everything in one bag we can actually carry, trying to justify all our clothes and shoes, because yes we do need 5 pairs of shoes!! We are possibly the epitome of "the female traveller".
Less importantly, We have made a name plan, to make things easier throughout the blogging process and while away. We will adopt the nicknames the three of us use whilst planning, having two Lauren's makes it very confusing! So simply I am now LP, Lauren G is LG and Maudie is M and is just as Judy Dench herself!
We are hoping this will solve the problem of introducing ourselves as Maudie and the Lauren's!
Even though there are mixed emotions, I cannot wait for our adventure to begin.
T- 9days and we are still telling ourselves, what could go wrong ?!
P.s. To all our loved ones, stop reading and looking at the news it will only make you panic. We promise to be safe and sensible and not to lose LG.
