preparation before it is time to go.

We're gonna go our first family roundtrip do-it-yourself-way to Seychelles and South-Africa. This because of many difficult years behind and opportunity to make true a promise for your kids (2 of them, who stil living home ) to take them safari once in lifetime, you know. Last year 2016 we got married and went to roundtrip Maledives ans Sri Lanka; just 2 of us. That was also first time no-one of kids with us (we have totally 4, so...). It was amazing trip, hand made trip after many many years no travelling outside of Europe. I'm getting back gribbles and excitement of planning adventures, to be able to see as much as possible of the places you go. That's why I'm startingthis diary from beginning...october 2017, when I saw superdeal offer sent via email. when days getting colder and darker I love to spend time surfin on internet and dreaming...maybe one day. I didn't dare to reservate this one right away, because datums were outside of school vacations and in Holland is just mission impossible to get days free just for a vacation. if you do it, you have to pay heavily for this crime. ;) This is reason is almost mission impossible to make budget trips with family together. So was it also this time.

After one week I have puzzeled financial planning together,got green light from my husband and ready to gamble. Finding out offer again , but...SOLD OUT! can't believe, NO! NO WAY!, I'm surfing deaper into sites of original flightcompany (outside of travelagency pages) and BINGO, found same price during Mai vacation. yes!! reservation, confirm creditcard payment and ready. Trip was booked....no cancellation policy, of course, 518 euro p.p. Amsterdam-Mahé, Seychellen-Johannesburg, South-Africa- Amsterdam, 14 days. Jiihaa, planning can be started.
