Goodbye...My Friend!

*Title must be sung to the Spice Girls song*

So it's happened. Kirsty has up and left me. She has moved on in her travels and has left Sydney to head up East on a 5 week trip and I am SO jealous. Her trip looked amazing! She's visiting places such as Byron Bay, Surfers Paradise, Brisbane, Cairns, Fraser Island and other places which I can't remember since there's so many!

Since leaving Scotland last September she has been my only constant throughout the trip. We left together and we'd planned to arrive back home together a year later but as with most things this year- plans change. Kirsty received some brilliant family news which now means she has chosen to head home at the end of July, cutting her year short. So naturally she has to go off and see all the sights before going back home. Why didn't Michelle and I go join her? Purely due to the fact we can't afford it at the moment. We're staying in Sydney, getting jobs (hopefully soon- it's been a struggle yet again!) and will save some money to travel up East too.

The plan is the three of us will go to New Zealand together as a final 'hurrah' before Kirsty goes home but everything is dependable on money. 

I can honestly say that my trip so far would not be nearly as good if Kirsty hadn't come with me and although I miss her a lot (we still talk every day more than once) I know it's something she has to do and is having an amazing time. Thankfully I still have Michelle to keep me in check.

I love you Kirsty! See ya in New Zealand :)

Iona x
