SO! My flight is booked! This milestone brought a bunch of mixed feelings. Excitement, nervousness, and the feeling that I have so much that I want to do before I leave. If I think about it too much I start getting this knot in my stomach and a huge rush of emotions. I have made good friends and have been able to spend time with my family since graduating and it is making it that much harder to think that I am leaving all that for a year. But then I think of all the smiling faces that will greet me each day and the impact I will be having and think that a year isn't that bad.
My flight is booked for December 30th. I leave Long Island to head into the city for a pre-departure orientation on the 29th and leave the 30th at 10:40 am. I have a layover in Johannesburg South African and then arrive in Namibia at 11:30 am December 31st. It is going to be a long day of travel and I will be so thankful to arrive in Windhoek and pass out in the hostel. I have many more updates to write about but I have to head out to get ready for work. I just figured I would share this BREAKING NEWS before I leave.
