Fatin Hamizah has always dreamed of touring Europe after watching The Lizzie McGuire Movie. The 2003 teen comedy film tells the story of the titular character’s graduation trip to Rome in Italy.

Fatin got her chance when her family attended her younger brother’s graduation ceremony in Britain in 2014. As fate would have it, the trip also took place in the middle of Ramadan.
