Going Solo 2013 digi page

This sketch was really challenging to me - in fact, this page is my second go at it. The colours were also very challenging and it took me a while to find something I was truly happy with. I will post the other page as well. This is for the CSI case file #58.

My trip to New Zealand sometimes seems a dim memory and yet other times I can remember more moments than my later trips away. That's me there in the middle and on the far right (with the lady I shared a room with). Our bus was made up of tourists from around 20 countries. It was wonderful. My first holiday away from my family (excepting school camps!)
