3-2-1, Go

Well, Its 2009, and I'm very close to being packed. Yesterday was a bit tough because of all the goodbyes, but it will be ok. I know that I will be back, so I'll see everyone again. Plus I can keep in touch with everyone here and other forms of communications.

But, I'll outline my travel plans. This morning I'm off to Sweden to visit a high school friend. We'll run around the country for 10 days, then we are traveling together to Munich, Germany. We have a mutual friend there, so it will be a small reunion. After spending time in Munich, I'll have the chance to show them Prague. I always love playing tourguide. Next I'll visit Vendy in Fridek Mistek for a couple days before going to Trutnov. It will be wonderful to see all my host families. It was hard to say goodbye when I left after my exchange because I didnt know when I was going to be back. We have plenty to catch up on. Plus its time to brush up on my Czech.
Next I'm spending 4 days in Zambia, Africa with one of my dad's former students. She is like an older sister to me, so I'm really excited to see her again. I also get to help her celebrate her birthday. Any excuse to have a party..... :)

This trip isn't out of the blue. Eventually I will arrive in Australia and start my college life. I have applied to study at the Australian National University. Technically I haven't heard if I have been accepted or not, but I'm confident that things will work out.

I would love to hear from everyone in return! I'll have a dorm address once I get to campus, so just shoot me an email and I would be happy to pass it on. I also have facebook, where I post all my pictures. You can find me on Skype if you like to hear voices. All the best in 2009, and Goodnight.
