Let the countdown begin.....(again!)

It's just a little over 5 weeks to go until I head off on part two of my adventure as a Canadian Co-operative Coach.  I was asked today if I was as excited as last year....hmmmmm......I actually had to pause and think about my reply.....I said yes, BUT that it is also bittersweet for me as I know this is my second and final trip to Africa with CCA, as this is only a two year assignment.  To know this is my last trip, well....that's the hard part for me....you see I've grown so much this past year and Africa was such a big part of that!

One of the biggest things I've learnt is that what's really important in life is to be happy and healthy and to surround yourself with people who love and support you, and everything else...well it's just "stuff".....and "stuff" can't make you happy.  Thank you Africa and all the incredible people I have met who have taught me such an amazing life lesson!

Sooo...while this is my last trip....I also plan on making the most of it and really living in the moment and experiencing all that it has to offer and giving my very best.  I hope you will come along with me again as I head off on this next adventure to Malawi.....and live vicariously through me as I live out one of my life long dreams...to make a difference in the lives of others.....

Thank you so much!

P.S. My goal is to obtain 5.000 hits on my blog for this trip (Yes Cory I will do it too!) so PLEASE share this link with your family and friends! :)
