Leaving in...

A few months from this day I'll find myself boarding a plane in Hamburg or Copenhagen which will take me away from here. A long way away from here actually. It's going to be a smaller journey halfway around the world. I'm so excited and now that I know when I'll be able to leave I'm even more thrilled ad eager to get everything arranged.
People always seem to ask me the same questions: why Alaska? What would you be doing? All alone?? And yes I know it may be dangerous, but I can't let that keep me from living my dream now can I?
I'm so psyched and look forward to spending time in the wilderness of the last frontier. Just me and nature.

I'm playing with the thought of not buying a return ticket, but buy a ticket to Amsterdam instead. It seems like such a reasonable thing to do!! I wonder what my parents would say to this.
