We arrived into London after a pretty sweet flight and we were excited to see family and friends!
Kylie collected us from the airport and had lots of what we needed for life in London sussed so we were stoked! We went back to the flat and had our first home cooked meal in a while, which was lovely!
Over the next few days we spent some time getting used to the tube etc and caught up with people from agencies. We were lucky enough to go to the olympic basketball with Ann-Maree to watch USA vs Australia which was an awesome experience!
Over the next week the four of us went our separate ways- Sian went with Donelda, Cat went with Ann-Maree to visit family in Scotland including William Wallace and Sophie and Ollie headed up to Manchester to visit family (during this time we all had our first Primark experience and FINALLY bought some new clothes!)
Our next stop was Dubrovnik - Croatia. We all reunited at the airport and were pretty pumped up for our trip, from here our crew consisted of Ollie, Sian, Sophie, Cat, Ash, Lizzie and Ann-Maree (Ed and Ben were already waiting from us in Croatia).
Our easy jet experience went without a hitch and we arrived to a beautiful evening in Dub. Over the next few days we explored the old town including walking around the old walls which was pretty awesome!
On Saturday we met up with our boat crew and despite the hangover we had a good first day sailing!
Over the next week we did a lot of relaxing, swimming, sunbathing and reading. We docked up at a different port every night and had a mix of chilled out evenings and party islands.
We were pretty sad for it to come to an end! It really was a dream holiday...we returned to London in our jandals and sunhats to find it was pouring...but now we are back to reality searching for somewhere to live and getting ready to start work!
We are off to explore the world. Starting in South America, before we head to the UK and Europe. We will keep you updated with what's happening and where we are in the world!

At the copa-copa-cabanaaaaaa
We have spent the last 4 days in Rio de Janeiro at the Copacabana beach. We have been so lucky to have amazing weather and got to spend lots of our time sunbathing and swimming! Our tour finished on Monday and we have been exploring the city on our own.
We went and saw Christ the Redeemer, went up Sugar Loaf mountain and went and saw some of the favelas (brazillion ghetto). Last night we went out in Lapa which was lots of fun.
We have been enjoying the food, we went to a traditional brazillan restaurant where they bring out big skewers of meat and cut off what you want! Was delicious but we are looking forward to some salad when we arrive in London!
Tomorrow is our last day in South America before arriving in London on Sunday, we are all a bit sad but excited. We can't believe how amazing our time here has been!
