Getting Excited!

Folks, 

It is almost here.  I can smell it.  I can taste it.  It's coming.  It is the single most exciting feeling I've had in my life.  Saturday morning I will have a boarding pass in my hand, my most needed belongings on my back, and an infinite amount of questions in my head.  I will be teetering on the perilous edge of having no idea what I am doing and being so excited for the adventure to come. 

I have a few days in San Francisco, CA with friends and then, come Monday morning, I will be snuggled into my Cathay Pacific seat, a pillow behind my head, a glass of wine in my hand, and Mumford and Sons playing in my headphones.  I have a 15 hour flight to enjoy endure, a short layover, and then I'll be in Kaohsiung, Taiwan.   

I'm planning on using this blog to document my adventures, display my photos, and keep in touch with folks back home.  I have no idea how often I'll be able to update but I am hoping it will be at least once or twice a week.  Please, please, please feel free to leave comments or questions for me.  It will help me to feel connected to you all in the States and maybe I won't be so homesick in the beginning.  

Check back soon for my first real post and since no post is complete without a photo and it was just Mother's Day, here is a beautiful photo of my mom and me. 

This is my lovely mother, Janet.  I have never thought I looked like her much but I can see it a little in this photo, can you?
