Setting Out Soon

Whoohoo! I set off for my first host, in CA, on Monday! I'm so excited! I'm going to a Swedish Midsummer Festival :) At the moment I'm pretty much trying to pack. I want to try to keep updating here as much as possible but who knows if that'll happen.

I will be keeping a reg. journal, too. What toy do I bring? Hmmm...

I can't believe I will be out until April! That's like 10 months! Much longer than I was traveling for last summer. I'm excited with all the places I'll be seeing and excited to meet everyone! I think I'll have lots of fun.

I'll of course miss everyone here but that's part of the life of a traveler. I'll have loads new stories to tell everyone when I get back. Missy says she's going to miss me lots, too! I have to give her a BIG hug before I leave! She's not even sure where she's going to be the rest of the summer or later or anything so this is a year of new adventures indeed! For the both of us!

Less Than A month

Wow, I haven't posted in forever! On Tuesday, May 3rd, Missy, Grandlinda, Felicity, Samantha and I went to AGPNY!!!!!! It was awesome! Grandlinda got me a pink AGPNY shirt and Missy got me my doll, Sari! Now we there are two Saris in the house because she has a yarn doll she made that she named Sari-she's dressed for St. Lucia day, too. Missy said she made her when she first got into AG-isn't that awesome? Her Sari has bright pink hair, though, lol!

Anyway, I leave for my travels early next month. I've got a lot of stuff to still do, like helping Missy organize everything...and packing. And keeping Jess sane because she'll have to take care of Peter and Caro again. She hated it last year. I don't get her, she says Caro is evil but he's a cute puppy! I love him!

At the moment, I'm set to visit about 10 hosts. I should be out until sometime in April. I can't wait. I'll get to visit my pen/epals, Anya, Lindsay, Bean's girls and Violet! It'll be so cool!

Anyway, here's a couple pics from AGPNY!
