Bon Voyage!

I'm leaving for Nepal tomorrow!!! The day is finally here. Tonight I'm busy trying to cram everything possible into my suitcase and see how many books I can fit into my carry-on to entertain me on the 30-hour trip. Am I excited? Yep. Definitely. This is going to be quite an adventure. Mostly, I'm just glad my psychiatry rotation is over and I just took my last shelf exam EVER! (For you non-medical people, a shelf is a national standardized test we take at the end of our clinical rotations.)

My flight leaves at 3:30 PM tomorrow, and I arrive in Kathmandu at 8:00 AM on Monday, August 31st. Of course, Nepal is 10 or 11 hours ahead of Houston, so I guess technically I arrive in Kathmandu at 8 PM on Sunday night. I'll be in Kathmandu for a couple of days before taking a 9-hour bus ride to Tansen, my home for the next two months. At any rate, you probably won't be hearing from me for a few days. Once I get settled and have internet access, I hope blog every week or a couple of times a week. So stay tuned!!
