I've started other blogs before and never finished them cause at first I would write a trip diary with the idea of converting it into a blog later on, too much work! So in this occasion I've decided to do things right, besides, I will also be contributing with the environment (I know my volunteer folks will appreciate this!) I wasn't sure, either, if I had to start with it now that I'm going to UK cause it wasn't exactly the beginning of a trip, but after a lot of thinking, it is... I'll be spending the next months travelling around UK almost like a backpacker while I work and help others!!! So it is the beginning of "the" trip, which started months ago, but I've been thinking on this moment for yeeaaaarrrssss! A extreme "start over"

London

Well, after 5 intense days course and a even more intense last day, together with some nerves for finding out if I had passed and what they though about my work during the week... I paaaaaassssseeeeddd!!! I'm very happy and pleased with the comments they made of my job, but to me totally honest, I struggled at some moments and a bit scared too, but I'm confident I'll be fine!!!! Obviously, they tell you about the worst options so you are prepared for any kind of incident, but when they are telling you one after the other you just think that that is how is going to be and it's kind of difficult to ask your brain to relax cause those are just "in case if"

Well, they thing I can make a good PA (Personal Care Assistance) of my self, now I just have to demonstrate it so for that I'm waiting. This is UK and I'll be working in health, so imagine how extric they can be with the requirements, I'm waiting for my previous job references to arrive and my CRB (Criminal Record B...) so I'm hopping to get some news from the office in the next days, my fried Ola (the Polish girl that I've already told you about) has received an email today saying that they have it all so she is ready to work, cause they have to ask for it, it will take as long as Spain wants it to take, I just hope it will be fast, pleaseeeeee!!!

But while I'm waiting, I've come to London to disconnect a little bit and get to see the people I have here, who knows if I'll have time afterwards!! Besides, Marian is here with her cousin, so there's some tours to do. Not today cause they had booked the Hop On and Off tour for the day, so I'm having a relaxed day at home so I can do my blog and other things. Saturday I went out for dinner with Diego, Tito, Sue and Monica, we had a great time. We went to a Thai restaurant in Soho, nice and most important cheap, cause I'm broke till I get payed and get my money back from the taxes.

Yesterday I spend most of the day in the tube, shame cause despite the cold it was a great sunny day, well not all of the day but quite a lot of time... hihihi Ola came to London for the day, then we went to meet here friends in a Pub and from there I left to go and get Marian and Mari. Actually, the truth is that I went to rescue them, because they weren't very sure how to get to the tube station I told them to wait for me in a pub and so they did, but they must have been the only girls and all the men where really excited with such an exotic visit hahahahaha, anyway the where really pleased to see me, the girls of course, I think the men where a bit sad!!!
