Less than a Week...

In less than a week I will be boarding my plane from NYC to Cape Town, South Africa. I will be travelling around Cape Town from July 9-July 15 with Boucher. Then on July 15 we will be meeting up with several people from my grad program to travel to Stellenbosch (45 minutes from Cape Town) for the IAPESGW conference. On July 20 I will be boarding a flight to Nairobi, Kenya where I will be volunteering teaching English in a Masai school outside of Nairobi.

This past week many people have been reassuring me and giving my organization a strong vote of confidence with comments such as well surely you have all your accomodation booked. Well here's the thing... I don't and I'm okay with that. So far I have a room in Stellenbosch booked for part of our stay and rugby tickets purchased so I feel like the most important things are taken care of.

We are going to a rugby game on the 11th and its a huge match and tickets are selling like crazy. Well we decided to splurge and purchased two of the best seats in the house for... you guessed it $13.75... for both.

While the to do list is growing rapidly I have elected to start a blog instead... so if I'm sleeping in the streets of Cape Town with no car rented well atleast I have a blog right?

  1. That is funny that you like getting the big things out of the way and then get the small details all layed out when you finally get to them lol. That is just like me. And wow those are very pricy tickets lol (that seems like a steel). Have jun at the game.
