Departure day!! All smiles before a very enotional farewell for 8.5 MONTHS. Trying not to think about how long that is, but I know it will fly by what with being busy and having the best time. If only Mabel came to the airport too 😭 also regretting not getting a direct flight now..

Connecting flight from Shanghai to Bangkok, Shanghai from above at night, very much looks like a modern London and now I want to change my flight on my way home so I have a layover here!

Pretty sunsets in Shanghai :) slept 9 out of the 12 hours on the flight from London, the guy sitting next to me was really impressed hahah

30 odd hours later on day one. Will take the same photo at the end!
