    day 36-38: Los Angeles

    January 6, 2016 in the United States ⋅ 🌧 12 °C

    for my last few days I pretty much relaxed in LA took it very easy had a god solid 30 odd days was time to wind down and plan my next steps of adventuring. I seen Sophie before she flew out to FIJI she was the only one left in LA from the trip. I was putting plans in to go up to San Fran but I couldn't really be bothered going anywhere by myself and having to come back to LA to fly out so I ended up changing my flights to Sydney which was last minute, I figured iv never been there could catch up with some people and seen some family I rarely get to see. in the airport I met a legend named Luke who was on the same flight so we drank at the airport together and sat next to each other on the plane, made the ride a lot more enjoyable when ya had someone to talk to instead of watching movies for 14 hours.Read more
