Travel plans for the summer

I chatted with my friend Rebecca last Sunday. I have planned to visit her during the summer before she leaves to her AUS/NZ trip. As it is so far away, she will be spending quite some time there. This is one reason why I am going to visit her this summer. So we talked about when would be a good time for me to come over. As she has really busy schedule a good time for both of us wasn't easy to find. The best time for her would have been when I am in Bulgaria and best time for me is when she is teaching and has retreat. Luckily we also discussed early summer options.

I have now the dates ready when I am going to see her. One thing is a bit of a problem though. How do I get to the airport? I thought I would take the train there, but it seems that the best option for me is to take the bus. The plaine lands just before midnight, so no trains are going then. The bus will leave between midnight and one, so I have enough time to get there. It just means that I will have to walk few kms to home. But yeah, I think that is what I will do. I will buy the return bus ticket so it will be a bit cheaper and I will have a ride home.

The plain tickets are quite expensive, (well not really, but kind of) even though it is not a special long weekend or anything. It is not even during the Olympics. Well I guess I should have bought the tickets much earlier to get them cheaper. I am going to fly with Norwegian, as it is the best choice. It will fly to Gatwick (less travel in UK end) and it is cheapest of them all. Now my round trip should cost about 220 euros. It might go higher if I am going to take a bigger bag. I hope I don't need to take a bigger bag, but I would survive with a smaller one. It is going to be just a weekend+ a day, so I don't need much stuff anyway.

On a happier note, she said she would be coming here too! So I will be able to see her twice during the summer before she leaves! Yay! I think I will start planning a trip to Australia for next summer... hmmmm travelling....

As I mentioned earlier I will also be going to Bulgaria for a week. I will need to buy a bigger bag when we go there, as I don't have any that would be working very well at the moment. But that's it for my summer. I have just two places where I plan to go. I think I will start saving money for the bigger trip for later this year or next year. I think I will ask my school about exchange programs to Canada. Also I need to contact the embassy about the working holiday visa... It would be so nice to be able to live there for few months at least.
