A homage to my beloved Gran.

On the 12th of June my parents informed me that gran was very ill. I immediately decided to buy the first flight out of Lima (I fortunately was at the airport). On the 13th of June 2011 my beloved grandmother passed away. I tried everything I could to get to Cape Town in time, unfortunately she passed away while I was landing in Sao Paulo, Brazil on the long intercontinental flight.

I was and still am heartbroken and find it very hard to accept the fact that my gran is no longer there.
I am grateful to have had you gran, I am so lucky to have spent time with you on the first leg of my trip around the world.

I know that you are still with me and that you will always be there, in everything beautiful that surrounds me.
I will treasure the happy times we had together and know that you are with me during the remainder of my trip.

Thank you for all your love and support. Love you, always. JP
