I will fly from Amsterdam to Lima, Peru and I will have about three months to get myself to San Jose, Costa Rica where I'll fly back to Amsterdam again. I'm going solo because I want to reunite with my inner freedom, and learn how it is to stand on my own feet again.

to book or not to book

I'm about to buy my plane ticket to Lima. I'm so soo excited and still a bit scared, however the scary feelings are disappearing more and more. The whole time it felt as if I had to wait a few days more to book my ticket, as like i needed a sign or anything. Pretty odd. The whole time it just didnt felt like the right moment, the right day, the right time. This weekend I already tried to buy my ticket at continental, they said I could pay cash at any western union location( i didnt had a creditcard yet). Turns out they where wrong, only in the US I could've paid at every western union location, but here in Amsterdam I had to find the bank account nr. of Continental, and it just wasnt anywhere to be found!! Horror. There I stood with my boyfriend in front of the WesternUnion trying to find their bank account number on his iPhone, nothing. Pissed me off really. Once home I still couldnt find it, so well, not the good day I guess. Maybe it had something to do with the dat which was Friday the 13nd. Maybe the spirits just helped me avoid booking my ticket on a date such as Friday the 13nd. 

However, after all this I think I will give it another try again. Today! On cheaptickets.nl I've found the same tickets as I wanted to book at continental, only than cheaper (I have to give their name credits for this!) and easier for me to pay. But if this doesnt work, I have a second option since I've received my creditcard yesterday, so now I can finally go spending some money! The heck with it, I'm just gonna book it!! Everything is settled down now, I almost have my propedeuse in Theology, coming school year I will go studying Cultural Antropology, and I have 6 months of nothing important. So lets make these six months one of the most important and greatests periods in my life! Hell yeah! Whiiii. Ok, i'm going to book now.. :)
