The BIG Trip!

Annyeong, chingus!

I think a lot of you know my big news but here it is in detail. I'm going on a three month round-the-world trip, leaving August 29th! I just bought my ticket last week and now all I have to do is save, save, save so I can shop shop shop.


First stop: Delhi! I will make my way to Nepal/Kathmandu via Agra (Taj Mahal) and Varanasi and I'll do a trek to the Annapurna base camp. I'll head back into India and my main priorities are visiting the states Punjab and Rajahstan. I'd like to go into a couple of the Himalayan states too but I'm not sure I'll have enough time. I'll be in the area for 6 weeks.


Second stop: Turkey! Erin is meeting me in Istanbul and I really couldn't be more excited about that. We haven't planned anything yet but I imagine we'll wander around the city for a few days before exploring more of the country.


Third stop: Holland/Belgium! This stop is to visit Felicia, who just moved to Ghent in January. Shana and Aleli might meet up there, too, for a full FANS reunion. That would be in-cred-ible and I really, really hope it happens.


Fourth stop: San Francisco! For a whirl-wind 8 days, I'll be in the Bay Area and hopefully I'll see as many people/family as possible.


Fifth stop: Belize! Julia's wedding and my ass is a bridesmaid. I can't wait to make an embarrassing (for her) speech.

Sixth stop: Costa Rica! Some friends from Seoul might be there but to be honest, I'd really like to just chill out on the beach for a couple weeks after all this travel.

Anyone who wants to meet up, let me know!

How can you afford these lavish vacations?! You must let me in on your secret. Anyway, I'm jealous but hope you have a wonderful time. Please capture many pictures of Erin being Erin in Istanbul. Can't wait to see them! And btw, update your stinking blog already!
