I happened to be very organized, why thank you very much. Even back in February I arranged leave for a week and a half to pack my stuff and sort my life out.
But what happened? I hear you cry.
Why oh why were you having only 4 hours sleep week prior and cramming stuff into your storage unit like a mad women 20 mins prior to the biggest trip of your life?
Two Things happened which were extraordinary.
One: I bumped into a French man one night.
And two: my passport and Ghana visa got sent in the post to the wrong address in the middle of a field in a non couriered envelope.
So back to me bring very organized! Is that you laughing Amy? I sent my passport to Canberra, insured, couriered with a hefty cheque for the visa PLUS 100 aus dollars to mail back to me safely. Ahhh the irony. A couple of weeks later lovely lady calls me and says 'Amanda you have paid us way too much for the mail, we will send you back the money'.
Little did I know she was to send me the cash, plus my passport and visa in a non couriered envelope to the WRONG address. Ahhhh the irony.
Anyway the long and the short of it is - I paid a shit load of money to delay my flight, get an emergency passport, however it did extend my knowledge of French somewhat ;)
Was it worth it? Yes it was tre bien ;)
