It weird asking people to read about my life, but everyone keeps telling me to let them know how my travels go and a blog seems like the most convenient solution. So read if you want, but don't feel obligated. I can only promise to try to make my life (and subsequent posts) as exciting as possible, if only for your amusement.
Also, if you're still reading this, I highly recommend reading my sister's blog which this one will be supplementing more than anything. www.scooterinmozambique.blogspot.com

Its the night before departure and I think we're ready. Bags are packed, ipod's charged, head's shaved (it'll make the traveling and heat much easier to deal with). Tomorrow at 6:30am we head off to Indianapolis. From there, we're going to Atlanta and then to Johannesburg where we'll be taking a bus to Maputo and meet up with Scooter. Finally, we'll take a chapa up to Inharrime, our final destination. The only part of the trip that worries me is the few hours we have to spend in Jo'burg (that city scares the shit out of me) but hopefully it'll all go smoothly and we'll be at the mission before we know it. Probably not, but hey, that's what makes it an adventure.
Well this was a thrilling start but try to contain yourself because things should start to get more interesting soon. For now, good night, and if you're a person I like, give yourself a hug from me.
