So, I'm half way through my A Level exams and writing another post on here seems to be a good form of procrastination. It's just over a month until I'll be in Africa and waking up every morning to the wonderful view from my dad's house (the picture attached to this post.) I'm nervous and excited about going travelling so soon, I think it's a good combination of the two! I just want my exams to be over so I can relax, go out in the sun and stop having meltdowns. ...

So in less than 4 months I will be away on my gap year, the biggest adventure of my life (so far!) I plan to try and keep this blog updated as I go, so you can follow my Travel Plan (once I figure out how to work this...) and see what I get up to. A bit about me; my name is Elin Cunningham, I'm 17 at the moment (18 in July) and I live in North Wales. I've travelled a lot in my life, but more about that later! I love horse riding, yoga, skiing, surfing, mountain...
