progress


A premature celebration perhaps, for the real thing is still in the post. Confirmation however was conveyed via email in forceful capitals: YOUR PASSPORT IS COMPLETED. I guess this means I passed through all the requisite background checks, and I hope this also means I won’t have the same trouble as my uncle going through airports. There must be a Dennis Young out there who’s done some naughty, naughty things; his name seems to cause a lot of strange delays.

So now I’m (almost) licensed to travel, there are only a couple more hurdles before being set to go. Firstly, getting permission from the Germans to stay in their country on a working holiday visa – meetings are set up for the next couple of weeks. Then we just need to get some transportation arranged for whilst we’re over there – Eurail, Britrail, and possibly the odd flight. Throw in a final dose of travel insurance for a detour through Morocco and we’re ready to take wing.
