As some of you might now, I plan to start my Work and Holiday in Japan this autumn/winter.

Currently I'm still super busy with preparations for my thesis (and my tutor is freaking me out), but there are things I don't want to procrastinate for too long!
One of those things are my documents.
Although my ID and travel papers are still valid, they'd expire during my stay in Japan.
Therefore I need both to be renewed.
That also means that I need new pictures for my passports (' A'
Therefore I'm going to have them taken today! : )
Further I hope that I'll receive my money already today so I can go to the city hall and order my new passport!
I knew that they aren't for free, but.. when I read -how- expensive an ID card and especially a passport is I was kinda shocked!
An ID card will cost you around 30€ which is kind of what I expected, but the passport comes at 60€!
So both documents will cost me around 90€ already!
Let's hope that at least the pictures won't look too silly! ; )
