TOUCH DOWN- BACK IN EUROPE AFTER 1 YEAR
We flew from NY at night and arrived at 7am in London.
Don't know why but we could not sleep in the plane so we arrived in London without sleeping at all.
Around 6.30am we could feel tired but in 20 min our trip will end, our familly will be there so no point to sleep now.
As soon as we exit the airport all our friends and familly are waiting for us, WE ARE BACK!!!!
lots of hugs, tears, exitment, etc...
We went all have a big breakfast in Central London, everybody is full of questions, we have so many things going on, at some point we could not feel the fatigue anymore and just kept going, with the help of coffee.
We stayed in London for 3 days: back in the dull life, back in the flat where everything started, seeing old colleagues, old jobs,friends, etc...
nothing changed and at the same time a lot, it's weird!
We realised we have lot of things to catch up with friends, what's happened in their lives during this year.
But otherwise London is still the same, for the first time in 1 year everything is familliar, every signal, street sign, etc... we know everything by heart.
Then we went to the South of France , Sophie's familly.
We had a big party with all her familly and friends, lots of good food and good wine.
Then we spent some days in Barcelona: Digby's familly, we went to the hairdresser , first time in 1 year!
After that we flew to Malaga, South of Spain as Sebastiaan and Sacha our friends from London are getting married!
A 4 day wedding in Marbella with all our friends.
We had the most amazing time and it was so good to party with all our friends again.
We also had the oppotunity to see Veronica ( a friend from Australia!)
We spent 2 days with her, so weird to see her in Spain and not Australia but it was perfect.
Now we are back between Barcelona and South of France .
Trip is definitely over.
We still don't know what we want to do , where we wants to live.
Digby has an interwiew about wine in Barcelona so we will see!
It still hard for us to think that we are back in normal life, we have the impression than we never left, we just had this crazy dream about travelling for a year!
For sure now when we are looking at pictures and videos ( by the way big video about the trip coming soon on the blog!) we realised how amazing our trip was! we can't believe we actually did it.
We are also really happy than nothing went wrong, nothing has been stolen, etc..
It 's really strange for us to think that we don't know the next time we will fly somewhere, no longer do we have the sensation of freedom.
For sure we will miss to be in an unknow city and loved it, wake up the morning and have no idea what will happen during the day, this freedom of not knowing what is happening in the world , in our business etc, meeting new people everyday, walking for hours with our backpacks and don't know where we will sleep at night, make every bed yours, have all the clothes conpressed in a micro bag, be super carefull with a piece of paper: our passport!, basically just travelling!
We want to thanks everyone who followed us during this amazing trip, looked at this blog and posted coments and sent nice emails.
Thank you to our parents who printed lots of pictures in albums: it was a nice surprise to see !
Thank you to all our friends who gave us the Tshirt, we had so much fun to do it everywhere in the world.
And thank you everybody who we met during this trip who helped us and gave us lots of unforgetable moments.
Hope to all see you again !
