Two Weeks and Counting

AHHHH Oh My Gosh!

So I leave in two weeks and I'm freaking out just a little bit. There is so much to do and so many people to see! On top of packing up my house and putting it in storage I have to pack all my hiking stuff for Nepal and all my regular stuff for New Zealand and Australia, plus I'm working and trying to visit as many friends as possible before I leave...oh and I'm pretty sure I've broken my wrist. Just a hairline fracture, if anything, but I'm begining to think it's not just a sprain like I origionally thought. But it will be fine. I have a brace on and I will wear it for the duration of my hike so that by the time I get to New Zealand it will be fully healed.

Even though I'm freaking out about leaving for about 6 months I'm really excited to go explore more of the world. This feeling of anticipation before a trip is one of the greatest feelings in the world, in my opinion. Obviously the feeling of traveling is amazing as well, but there's something really special about these pre-trip butterflys.
