In 10 days time I will be saying goodbye to everything I know, and saying hello to a hell of a lot of things I know nothing about.
Daunting? - Extremely!
Exciting? - Definitely!
Fully prepared and totally packed? - Ummmm, no...not really.
With all the vital visas and vaccinations sorted, I find myself worryingly preoccupied with foolish yet pressing questions:
- How much sunscreen is too much sunscreen?
- Exactly how much toothpaste do I use in a year?
- Is Marmite a luxury item - or something i can't live without?
- Is there such a thing as too much sunscreen?
- Oh my God, how much is all this sunscreen going to cost me?
One more day at work - and then eight days to dedicate myself to finding the answers to at least some of these questions.
Marmite is definitely something you can't live without, especially as they now come in handy plastic tubs :o)
ReplyDeleteFreya, I'll miss you loads and can't wait to start reading about your adventures. i'm sure you'll be an asset to the team in SL and they'll love having you there. Loads of love and hugs, good luck. Smitha xoxo PS. don't forget that you have a vital question about using an iron without electricity...look forward to hearing how that turns out :)
ReplyDeleteAn iron? You won't need one out there...! Really sorry I missed your send off on Friday. I am sure it stirred up some good old memories. I will be sure to keep checking out what you've been up to on here from time to time!
ReplyDeleteHave fun, take care and be careful. See you in a year!

PS you can never wear too much sunscreen (especially when you're as pale as us!)
