Does she have any other opinions? Where are her friends going? Commute? Special interests?

Can you push it later? Should be a bit cheaper to leave in Jan but you will miss the nice European lead up to Christmas.

3dprintdeals on AdGuard Family Plan Lifetime Subscription US$11 + US$1.10 GST (~A$18.20) @ AdGuard Software via StackSocial

samyall replied to
3dprintdeals on AdGuard Family Plan Lifetime Subscription US$11 + US$1.10 GST (~A$18.20) @ AdGuard Software via StackSocial
