When we finally landed in Frankfurt, we couldn't get to our bags as there was supposedly a suspicious bag on WOWair. Thankfully there was nothing wrong and after getting my bag I checked in to the Sri Lankan Air and got to check my 15kg bag all the way to Kuala Lumpur.&lt;br /&gt; The flight to Colombo takes 10 hours and during that time I managed to watch 2 movies, eat no dinner due to allergies and sleep a bit. They gave us a much better breakfast though. When we landed the heat had already risen to 25˚C and I was happy I wouldn't be spending more than three hours at the airport as I suspected the heat would be even greater at noon.&lt;br /&gt; The next leg was 4 hours and I intended to sleep as much as I could. The flight attendants had different ideas as they woke me up to have a breakfast I couldn't eat. When I got to KL I went into the town and went up the KL Tower. I had wanted to go to the Petronas, but as you have to go up at a pre-arranged time and I had no idea what my time schedule was, the KL Tower was an excellent substitute.&lt;br /&gt; When I got back to the airport I found out that my next flight actually left from KLIA2 so I hopped on a train after getting my bag from the left luggage. At the gate there was a militaty guy who asked me countless questions about Iceland before letting me on the plane. The flight is five and a half hours and I didn't sleep a wink, even though we set off just after midnight. At Perth airport, the border security had nothing to say about all the licorice I brought for the Icelanders, so I just walked straight past the K-9 unit to the arrivals hall where the Icelanders were waiting for me. I had never met them, so we introduced ourselves and then they took me to their house via the scenic route so I could at least see Perth city.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;Hello there!. Today is the 29th of September and I leave on my trip on the 3rd of October. I've been busy packing all my belongings into boxes because I'm not just going on a two and a half month long trip around the world, but I'm also moving out of the apartment I've lived in for the past couple of years and am putting all my things into storage. But now the move is almost over so I can focus more on the trip.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I'll try and be good about putting stuff on here, sometimes it might just be videos, but sometimes I might feel enterprising enough to write. Most posts will be in 2 languages. :)&lt;/p&gt;</description>
