This is my last blog post until I get back from the village. I am really excited for the trek. It will just be a United Planet worker and I going on the trip. We leave in the morning (on Monday) and will reach Sermathang on Friday. I hear we have around 4 hours to trek each day and stop at villages along the way. There is one village that is higher than the rest along the way what I possibly might get altitude sickness at. However, my guide is trained in what to do and they don't suspect it will be a problem.

My new home is supposed to have solar energy so that warm showers are available! I am looking forward to that. And it is a no-kill zone so very little meat is being eaten. Both of those things are going to be good for me I think. I have been getting sick a lot recently just because I am stressed with the new change coming up I think. I am going to be out of pollution and in a very natural area shortly and expect to feel better with the more fresh food and fresh air. The exercise should be great as well!

I am planning on being back on March 17th. However, all plans are fluid in Nepal so it is difficult to say exactly. I am getting back early to do some vacationing before I leave so that is why I am coming back so much earlier than March 22 when my plane leaves.

So, I will miss blogging and am sorry that I am unable to keep it up. I will miss the contact with everyone but am looking forward to the adventure. Thank you all for your comments and I will talk with you all in a month and a half!

Happy Birthday Lisa! I love you and miss you!
