So you know the song in The Sound of Music where Maria is singing about a few of her favorite things? And she mentions some horrible things to show a nice contrast (bee stings, etc etc)... this is SO much worse. Trying to pack for 2 years to a place you've never been to is super tricky. I had this beautiful vision of only having one checked suitcase, which would allow me to check my guitar. No such luck. After successfully packing one suitcase (win!)... i was still left with a rather daunting pile on my bed. There was no way it would all fit into my delightful backpacking pack with that bag being carry on size at the end of it.
So. Guitar is staying at home :-(. But!!! There's hope! I think I can get one in country at a bazaar hopefully early in training. Moral of this story - i. hate. packing. so overrated.
On a lighter note - here's some trivia. one of my favorite things in a day is how my feet feel when i just get out of bed. try to remember to notice it sometime... pretty dang awesome :-)
Last day in CO tomorrow... staging here I come!
