World travel day 1

So today has been the day. I woke up in London at my flat and now roughly 12 hours later, I'm sat in Equity Point, a hostel in the middle of Marrakech, trying to eat dinner while a random cat sits on my lap trying to get at said dinner.

It's been a strange day leaving everyone behind, but it's also a day of excitement, so it's a mixed bag.

It's hard to believe that this is the start of a trip that will take me round the world, but that's exactly what it is. I feel amazingly lucky to be here and excited to start this chapter of my life, what I'm not excited about is tomorrow's 6:30am start to go dune boarding...

I was also invited to have drinks with some American students. I had to politely decline due to that 6:30am start, but it has reassured me that I am going to meet lots of new people on my travels.

The cat just sneezed, it was adorable.
