From reporting in Wrangell to teaching in Tanzania and Bhutan to, now, transitioning to life in the capital city of Juneau – some words on a life in flux.

Overwhelmed

We spent our last day in Cambodia in Siem Reap town. The day started pretty relaxed and Scott and I thought it’d remain that way, but then we started doing visa stuff for our next adventure and things got complicated. The day turned into running around making passport photos (at the exact right dimensions), printing out application forms, and generally continuing to stress about traveling through a small portion of China, Mongolia, and Russia, starting in Beijing and ending in Moscow, by train. This coming week will be eventful – going back to the states, seeing friends and family, our appointment with the Russian visa office. Cam Ly’s wedding is in less than two weeks; I wonder how she’s doing. Our 4+ months of living out of a bag and staying in $7 rooms are coming to an end. I guess with the Trans-Mongolian plan, there’s still a lot to look forward to, then Tanzania. Right now, I feel overwhelmed. That could be good though, right? To be overwhelmed by life rather than underwhelmed?
