So I am finalizing my packing and hoping I am bringing all that I need even though I know I'm not.. haha Traveling for 2 months with just the pack on my back? Ah! I have 5 shirts, 4 shorts, 2 jeans, a dress, a bathing suit, a sweater, a jacket, hiking shoes, running shoes, flip flops, Crocs (thanks Jason), and some personal items. This is less than I travel with when I go someplace for a weekend! My arm is still sore from the Yellow Fever, Typhoid, Hep A, and Tetanus shots I recently received and I have ~70 malaria pills all packed away, but I am super excited! This is going to be an awesome trip and I am ready for it.
I miss all of my friends from graduation too much already and need to travel the world a bit to clear my mind before coming back to Hopkins. I'm looking forward to traveling with Steve- we have similar travel minds. Some weeks we want to be hiking the jungle, some we want to be lying on the beach, and some we want to be volunteering. We have plans to do all of this and the flexibility to change it up if something cool comes up along the way.
If anyone is interestd in hooking up with us for part of the trip, let me know! Also, I have a 3 1/2 hour layover in Newark, NJ tomorrow (Monday) from 12-3pm. Call me if you're free then! This will be the last time I can chat w/you on the phone before I am in South America! Wish me luck! Have a great summer and stay in touch if you can!
