I spent the second to last day home finishing up my to do list: setting up my netbook, tooling around with my new Kindle (!!!!), and packing my big camping backpack. I’m taking the bus from Washington, DC to New York on Wednesday, staying with a friend in the city for the night, and then flying on Thursday night.
Still excited, still scared, but finally prepared. It’s taken two years of working 2 or 3 part-time jobs in college and a summer of saving to get to this point.
This is the plan as it stands: 1 night in New York, 1 night on the plane from New York to London, 4 nights in London (visiting my sister, Carlyn!), 2 nights in Bath (taking in “the waters”), 1 day in Salisbury (Stonehenge!), 2 nights in Holyhead, Wales, and 1 night in Dublin. After that, starting September 11th, I will be working on various farms around Ireland.
Keep following me ‘cause I haven’t even started yet!
