Belfast Solo Trip (May 2023)

I WENT ON A PLANE BY MYSELF. Zooooooommmmmmm.

Going on a plane by myself was a huge moment for me, I haven't travelled much so being able do have the courage to do this proved to myself that I am continually growing, but enough about that let's get into to the trip. I had the best time in Belfast and has given me the real bug to want to explore the world. 

Friday - Ahhh so today was the day I flew over to Belfast from Bristol airport. The airport was so busy, I think it was because it was Eurovision weekend people we travelling around the world to go watch it wit friends and family. Once I was on the airplane I took my seat by the window and just carried on about my day when a lady nearly fainted, I was extremely worried about her - she first went and took a seat by the door but the guy on the seat wanted extra legroom because the seat by the door had extra leg room, only fair right.

Anyway, the seat next to me was the only spare seat with extra leg room and he sat by me the entire journey. We spoke the entire way like NORMAL people and then just as I was getting off he asked if he could have my number and I was like 'No you may not' but I just think it's abit odd that you can be talking normally do a person and you have mentioned you are in a relationship and they still try it anyway. What a joke.

Once I was out of the airport I was on a mission to find my friend Laoise who was parked somewhere by the taxis, after about 10 minutes we were reunited, two very happy girlies. The weather was warm, the music was on and the laughter was loud. We got to her place dropped my bags off and went straight out for food. We went to an Italian and ohhh myyyy WE ATE SOME GOOD FOOD. After we were both full to the brim it was time to go out and meet some of Laoise's work and home friends so we took ourselves to the city centre and had a little drinkies and then saw where the night took us. It took us the a little club called and then we called it a night. I was so tired and was ready to sleep.

Saturday - Saturday was a busy day. We drove to Mussenden Temple, had a picnic, swam in the sea and went to a Eurovision part-tayyyyy. For one Mussenden Temple was stunning and for two the sea was cold so very cold. But, we had such a great swim and I had a smile plastered onto my face even if I did first think I was going to hypothermia. Later in the evening we went to a house party and watched the Eurovision. The people who were at the party were great and we had such a great laugh together. Gosh Belfast in such an amazing place. I love the accents too heh.

Sunday - It is go home day today but I was determined to make the most out of the day before I had to get on my flight. First and foremost breakfast, we went out for breakfast and then went to see literally every museum, well expect for the titanic one, will save that one until next time.

On the drive to the airport I felt upset. I was going to miss Belfast and miss Laoise. I had such a great time and I am looking forward to my next adventure.
