Hello 2016

106-happy-new-year

So 2015 turned out to be an exciting year, and I was lucky that I had the opportunities I did to be able to travel so much, and to some really neat places. I spent some time in South America, Africa, Europe, various places in the States, and Australia. I have always loved to travel, and have always made a point of planning a trip to someplace new at least once a year, but I don’t think I have ever been in the air so much in 365 days.

Of course with all that fun and adventure it doesn’t mean I didn’t also face my share of challenges. I had to work my butt off to be able to save for the trips I took and to prepare for some major changes in my life. At the time it was hard, but looking back now I can see those changes were definitely for the better. And now, in just a few short weeks (!!!) I will be moving to Sydney. I am SO excited and nervous and, well, a little stressed because I really need to start figuring out what I am going to bring with me!

I know living abroad will bring it’s own set of challenges — finding a place to live, making new friends, avoiding giant spiders, adjusting to the backwards seasons (just kidding, I’m pretty pumped to be heading over there in the middle of summer), and adjusting to expat life in general — but I am pretty positive it will be worth it. I can’t wait to see what experiences are in store for me Australia. I’ll be sure to share them with you on the blog!

Happy New Years all! Here’s to awesome adventures in 2016, wherever you are.
