Emmas around the world adventure!

So, the day has finally arrived. In approximatly 7 hours I will be sitting on a plane, on my way to Buenos Aires for the trip of a lifetime! Corny huh? Well, the past few months have been completely corny. My emotions have been out of control...I feel like I'm on some sort of soap opera. Saying goodbye yesterday, I really was a blubbering mess. I just felt really sad to say goodbye to the people in my life I love so much. It's not as if I am going away with an urgency to leave my life behind. In fact, my life in Melbourne couldn't get much better. I love my family, friends, my lifestyle, my job. Picking up my bags and leaving everything behind, temporarily, has been one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. My desire to travel has not come from a dissatisfaction in my life. I just want to see the world while I can. So, it's currently 4:30am. It's my first night away from home in a big hotel suite in Sydney. I must try and get a bit more sleep before the big plane ride tomorrow. I'm so excited to see Andrew and as the time gets closer the sadness of saying goodbye seems to subside a little! Like they say,and in keeping with the corny theme.... Bon voyage! See you in South America!!
