Preparation is a Slow Progression

I am slowly moving towards a September travel target.

My new housemate moved in on Monday, he will be looking after my house, my dog, and all my worldly possessions while I travel the world. I am charging him rent, of course.

I applied for my UK Youth Mobility Visa the other day, and they already deducted the fees from my credit card. I made a blanket booking at the consulate office for July. I will try and reschedule, July seems so far away.

I went to the library, and found two books on how to create a WordPress blog. I need any help I can get with CMS, web design, and time management.

My work came to me with great news about reshuffling the team around, and possibility for promotion and career development. On a side note, its always funny how things start to fall in place (too little, too late) when you’ve gone ahead and made other plans.

I’m a little disappointed I missed out on the $250 Air Asia X sale from Perth -> KL -> London. But, I managed to find reasonably priced tickets for September. I haven’t booked yet, I want to make sure I get the visa first.

I’ve been researching accomodation and tours for Ibiza and Oktoberfest; after a long 6 months of training and not drinking, I am looking forwards to the possibility of kicking off the trip with some partying. I just hope that by the time I get the news on the visa, I haven’t missed out on accomodation options completely.

I hope to post more about each of the things I’ve mentioned here, as I start to formulate more of a plan.
