How:
            My parents will pay for my flight (thanks mom and dad) as a grad present (woo) and since I am travelling with them I will have their financial aid throughout the vacation (BONUS!).  I also plan to fund this vacation by working a lot throughout the summer as well as the year! I want to try to be as independent as I can, which will be difficult on minimum wage income!
My older brother (Kevin) will drive us to the Toronto Pearson airport. Unfortunately he will not be joining us because of work and other obligations. We will then take an approximately 26 hour journey flight from Toronto to Paris, France (our first layover), then to Hanoi, Vietnam (our second layover) and then finally to Vientiane, Laos (our final destination)!
Coming back will be even longer! We will venture on a 29 hour journey from Vientiane, Laos to Bangkok, Thailand (our first layover), then to London, United Kingdom (our second layover) and then finally back to Toronto, Ontario! My brother will await us at the airport and drive us back home to Cambridge.
