Remember when I first began and said that we weren't sure that we would have a big enough budget. Well in the end we managed. And we did everything we wanted to do. Up to new york our accommodation was perfect. But since 3,5 months of travelling and shopping is kind of expensive we had to compromise.

Lizet always gets a bit excited if we have to fly because she doesn't want to miss the flight. So we went 3,5 hours in advance.
