☑ Booked my flights to Bolivia
There are no direct flights to Bolivia from the UK. There are a plethora of ways to get to Bolivia from the UK including going via Colombia, Peru, Chile, Miami, New York, Madrid, Barcelona... the list goes on. I've opted to go the simplest way possible - LHR to MIA to LPB. Granted, it's a bit more pricey than going via other countries listed above BUT it is the quickest and involves going through an English-speaking country which helps as my Spanish isn't the best.
☑ Booked a hall to host my quiz night in.
I'll be hosting the quiz night in a super cute Guide Hut associated with a church not too far away from where I live. The purpose of the quiz night is to raise some money towards my trip to Bolivia. It'll the be first (hopefully) of many fundraising activities that I'll put on to raise funds.
Getting the Guide Hut was a stroke of luck as they don't usually accommodate fundraisers but as the person I contacted is Bolivian... ☺
☑ Bought a few prizes for the raffle at the quiz night.
A cheeky spot of shopping after a catch-up lead me to stumble across some top-quality raffle prizes going for a song. I bought a few items which I tried to vary to suit differing tasters and I'm in the process of trying to source a few more.
