Far From Home

leaving the nest

Sopie's POV:
Well today is the day I'm leaving home,my family,friends and Amsterdam.
My mom has been nervous all week.
She has checked my suitcases like a 100 times and she doesn't stop asking me if i'm 100% sure I have everything I need.

As I walk downstairs with my suitcases I see my mom,dad brother and sister standing right in front of me,my mom with tears in her eyes.
"We're gonna miss you so much" my mom says while I got a big family hug.
"I'll be back within 12 months,we're going to skype and you guys can always call me, I love you all so much and i'm going to miss you all".
"Triiiiiiiiiing"
"Well.....there's my taxi I better go"
I gave everyone a last big hug and got in the taxi.
I waved and as the taxi drove away they were getting smaller and smaller until I couldn't see them anymore.
pfff that wasn't easy I think by myself as we drove to airport schiphol Amsterdam.

I arrived at the airport and grabbed some starbucks as breakfast.
I looked at the big boards in the airport to see wich gate I needed.
"Iceland,Iceland,Iceland" I said whispering trying to find the name on the board aaah got it.
I walk to my gate and wait until I can get on my flight.
I still have to wait for like an hour so I'll better update my online blog, it has gotten a lot more visiters lately and I even start to get money for it.
I have always loved fotography and lifestyle so I just started it as a hobby but I never tought it would get this big.
This world trip will probably give me a lot of stories and photo's to share and will get my blog a lot more visitors as well.
I type enthusiastic about the first page of my world trip and the time flies by.
Its time to get on the plane here I go,bye holland,Amsterdam.

I take my seat and stare out of the window, its really begining.
A girl named sophie 18 years old that dreamed about this world trip since she was 6 years old and now its finally happening.
'Everyone put your seatbelts on,the plane is ready for take off, have a nice flight'.
I put my headphones on and stare out the window, the airplane is getting higher and higher as holland is getting smaller and smaller.
I close my eyes and listen to the music it makes me lose all my worries and makes me think about the good things instead of the bad things in life,because i'm going on the world trip i've always dreamed of and i'm freaking excited!.
See you soon iceland.
