An up to date update
My last post covered the amazing city of Venice in Italy. Since then, I have traveled through a great deal more of Italy, including Rome, Siena, Cinque Terre and Florence. Last week I recieved news that I had a ticket to glastonbury festival if I wanted it… Of corse, I wanted it.
Glastonbury is the world largest green field festival, with over 200,000 people on site every year. Acts this year include Bruce Springsteen, Tom Jones, The Ting Tings, Blur, The Prodigy, Fleet Foxes, Mr Scruff, and they are just the ones I’ve remembered. You can check out www.glastonburyfestival.co.uk for more info!
Anyway, I ended up back in France, in Nice, and was supposed to catch busabout right through to Spain. I ended up booking a flight through to Bristol, the closest airport to Glastonbury. I was picked up by Jose, one of the guys who I worked with on the sunrise festival. We headed back to Sid’s farm, after picking up some new sleeping bags, a new pair of sandles, and a sleeping mat.
We moved onto site the next day, and completed the 5 block of toilets that were already half built. The toilets are only a trial, and are located in the VIP area, so they will see little use. This means that we get it pretty easy, and so I have organized all the bands I want to see, and there are a few!
Glastonbury is an amazing site, and I have already seen so much, despite the festival only officially opening today. There were 94,000 people onsite at 9am this morning, and the Mexican cheers continue across the site every few hours.
I will try and catch up on all the places I have been up to now, but it will take a week at least! I hope you are all well, please send me an email, as I have internet onsite. Until next time, cheers!
