I just bought my ticket home. I will be back in DC on the 19th of November.
That leaves me working here in Freo for 3 more months to save money for the rest of the trip.
After that, Ill then have 10 more weeks in Australia. In that time, I hope to complete the rest of my loop around Australia (from Perth to Broome to Darwin to Cairnes and then back to Sydney).
From there, I will hop on a plane to Auckland and have 6 weeks tooling around New Zealand.
By then it will be mid November, and on the 2nd, I start my trip home with a week in Honolulu, 3 days in Seattle, and a week in Portland putting my back on my couch on the 19th.
Its funny. I feel like my trip is ending so quickly but at the same time I am still trying to wrap my head around not seeing my family and friends for another 8 months.
My work visa in Australia is good through December of 09', but I couldnt bring myself to miss another Thanksgiving or Christmas. I dont know; some things you just shouldnt miss and cant ever replicate.
