Busy, busy

I've been so busy getting ready for my upcoming trip, that I realized I haven't posed anything new to my blog in a while. So just a quick update... I've booked my tickets and am scheduled to depart Dec. 1 for Thailand. I'll spend a couple months dividing my time between Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia before heading to India in early February. My volunteer program starts Feb. 11 and will last six weeks, after which I'll have a few weeks to explore other parts of India. Last but not least, I'll have two weeks in Rome before heading home April 30.

Thanks to everyone who has contributed so far to my volunteer fee. I really appreciate it!
