Today I’m posting something a little different. But I thought it would be something to speak with you all about. On the 13th of May, I’m heading on a nearly month adventure overseas. The furthest I’ve ever gone from Australia is Hawaii – which mind you, I love. But this time, I am heading to four new places – yes that is right four.
Over the 3 and half weeks that I am away I’ll be heading to Denver, Colorado; New York, London and finishing it off in Hong Kong. This trip has been nearly 3 years in the making. The main reasons for this trip is to go to my cousin’s graduation. But with such a long trip in the mix, my aunties and I thought it would be worth it if we added a couple more places to our holiday. And I cannot wait!
Like I said the only place I’ve been out of Australia is Hawaii. And not only do I get to go overseas, but I also get to go to some of the places that I’ve wanted to visit forever. I’ve always wanted to go to the UK since I can remember really. I don’t just want to go for a visit, but I do want to live there – and I thought that this would be an amazing way for me to see if it’s something that I want to go. Another place that I’ve always wanted to go to is New York – like London it’s a place that I can see myself living in the future. I can’t wait for this trip to begin.
Denver is our first stop on this trip. With a stop over in LA for 6 hours though. My family live in Denver so we are here for the graduation and just to hang out. I haven’t met most of these members of the family, so it’s going to be really nice. They are going to take me around Denver, Shopping and so much more.
I haven’t planned too much of this trip, my aunties and I have left it all up to my cousin. My only request is to go to some bookstores – which I am so excited about. Denver is going to be a time for family, shopping and a little sightseeing mixed in. We are in Denver for over a week so there is plenty of time to do things.
Then we are off to New York. I am so excited for New York ahhh! There is so much that I want to do and so little time, but we are going to try and fit everything we can in. The thing that I am most excited for in New York is that I am going to see Hamilton. I can’t even begin to explain how excited I am for this one.
I also want to visit some bookstores when I’m there, so if you have any recommendations, please give them my way.
London is our next stop and the place that I am looking forward to the most. Going to London has always been a dream for me, and I can finally do it. I do plan to go back in a couple of years to see more of Britain, but for now, it’s a little sampler.
I’ll be in London for about a week, and I am trying to fit in as much as I can. I’ll be heading to the Harry Potter studios – which I still can’t believe that I am going. I am also going to see Hamilton again, and this time my aunties are coming with me.
One thing that I can’t contain my excited for is going to the Tower of London. If you didn’t know, I love history. Yes, it might be a strange thing to love. But I love learning about different times in history and how the world worked. One of my favourite times in history to learn about is the mid-to-late 1400’s. It was such an interesting time, and I am totally fascinated by it.
I will also be heading to Oxford for the day as well as Windsor Castle. It’s going to be a busy week but I am so excited about it. I am also hoping to head to the British Musem and some bookstores along the way.
My final stop is Hong Kong and let me tell you, I am so excited about all the food that I will get to eat. Not only that, it’s totally different from other places that I have been to so that always excites me. I’m only going to be there a couple of days, but at the moment I am planning to visit; Victoria Peak and the Tian Tan Buddha.
And then I will be back home. It’s going to be the longest time I’ve been away from home, but I am so looking forward to it. What are some recommendations for places to visit, eat and things that you think I might enjoy? Have you been to any of these places? Do you live in any of them? Let’s Chat!
