Do you need a reason to travel?

For some years I knew I wanted to travel in stead of a "50-year"birthday party. So I started planning a trip and soon my daughter Nathalie and sister Sonja said they wanted to travel together with me. I wanted to visit Kikuko, our japanese student in 2008-2009, Bugu our student from Turkey in 2009-2010, family in Australia and to have a interesting holiday. Later on we discovered that it became cheaper with a trip around the world, so we choose to travel to New Zealand and Hawaii aswell. Visiting Bugu we had to postpone because of toocomplicated flights
