One Month.
One month from now Audubon will be a world away. One month from now I'll meet a brand new group of people that I'll be spending the next 2 years with. One month from now my life will be packed in 2 duffel bags and one carry on. One month from now I'll be on a flight headed for Africa.
I still have a hard time wrapping head around the fact that I'm leaving because it still feels like a dream, but for the first time since I received my invitation it feels real, really real... that my life in one month will be nothing like I might have imagined a few years ago. But you know what? That's OK with me. I like not knowing whether the clothes I kept will still be in style by the time return, I like not knowing where I'll be living and the resources I'll have available or how close another volunteer will be to me. I am excited to learn a new language, culture and experience all that Africa has to offer. Of course I am scared beyond belief but that's part of life and the adventure. I just hope that you enjoy my hearing about my journeys. I know that no one really knows about this blog and that I am kind of writing to myself but I want to be able to share my life in Africa with all of you. I will update as much as I can in the next month. It will be quite hectic and probably boring to write about since I'll be bumming around and packing. But stayed tuned folks this is just the beginning!!
