31 Days and Counting!

Oh. My. Gosh. I cannot believe it is already Mid-January and I will be leaving for Australia one month from today. This is so freaking exciting!!! I feel like this has been such an incredible journey to even get to this point and I haven’t even left the country yet.


The current plan for me is to end my time working for Kid's Nite Out on January 23rd (in a week, I know, weird), fly home on the 25th to spend some much needed time with my parents and even my brother a little (love how that worked out!) as well as do all my shopping, doctor appointments, new contacts, packing, and all that fun stuff before I leave from Denver to LA on February 15th and then fly to Brisbane that night. Once  I get there, I will be staying with an Aussie woman named Merle and her cat Chloe about 2 miles from the university. That in itself will be an adventure. :) My program runs until June 25th and then I will likely be flying up to Europe to adventure around there for a bit. 
I am truly excited that I was able to get my program changed. A small part of me is sad that I will not be in Europe while so many of my friends are there, but I do think that the change was for the best and I couldn’t be happier with the situation as it stands now. Plus, if everything works out, I’ll be going to Europe on my way home, anyway!
So, if you’re interested in what I’m up to in the Land Down Under, please follow this blog, Facebook, email, or Skype me. I officially leave on February 15!
PS-If some of you are seeing this again, sorry! I decided i liked Blogger better than Wordpress.
