Preparing

November 9th, 2005

I’ve only one more shot to go. The second Hep B. Finish taking my typhoid vaccine tomorrow. Been shopping online to save a little money on supplies for my trip. Waiting for most of it to arrive now. Picked up a seasonal second job to pay for this trip. Still waiting to hear from the nature reserve as to whether or not I have a position with them for the month of January. Can’t seem to find my passport, but I just had it so I know it’s around. And I’m still debating those malaria meds. My dad offered to pay for half if I go with Malarone. Didn’t expect that at all. More to come again soon…

Jabs

I’ve made my first few appointments for my vaccinations. Should be interesting. I hear 25% of people getting the yellow fever vaccination get sick afterwards. I’ve booked my flights, and now I’m in the process of applying for a month-long volunteer position at a nature reserve in Guyana.

The First Entry

September 29th, 2005

My very first entry. I’ve purchased the airline tickets for the trip. I’ll be leaving Dec. 30 for NYC and flying out of JFK for Georgetown, Guyana on Jan. 3rd at 1:00. I’ve got so much to plan and figure out and no large guidebook to help me. Vaccinations, itinerary, insurance, applications for volunteering… so much to do. Hopefully I’ll have more to update about soon.
