Home Again!

Well I'm back in Pure Michigan (as I love it call it)!  only for a very short time, but back!  You ask why I came back after being here just 3 weeks ago for a month....well I will put it short.  I bought too much shit in Turkey!  basically.  Well I had a request from my mom to buy her another turkish lamp, after I decided I was going to drag that around with me for the next week and a half, I figured I might as well buy some carpets and lamps and other stuff for myself and have the chance to ship it home 'for free' (meaning take my mistake airfare I booked almost a year ago for $200).  So I'm back!  I would love to see anyone who I didn't see last time!

So I believe that I have my schedule planned out for the rest of this year!  Well often I say this and plans change but this is what I have planned:

Leaving from the US on September 14th - headed for South Africa.  From there we will fly to Zambia, and cross into Zimbabwe, onto Botswana, fly into Malawi and go to Mozambique.  Possibly go into Swaziland and Lesotho.  From there I will leave and head over to Thailand around Oct2 via Seychelles!  This would make country number 100 Malawi!  WOO (my goal)  In Thailand, I want to visit three different places for about 10 days each (not yet decided) to practice yoga.  Sofar thinking about Koh Samui for sure and 2 other islands perhaps.  After that I would like to go to Hong Kong or Singapore and do more yoga for maybe 10 days, before my yoga teacher training course in Bali from November 16-Dec8.  I should be full on yoga from Oct6-Dec8!  Happy Amanda!

After this you ask -- yes I'm coming home and will be back in the mitten on Dec10!  Still unsure if this will be the end of my travels....but time and my bank account will tell.  And don't ask me where i'm moving too -- but Detroit area is sounding friendly.  I cannot still decide if moving 'back home' (meaning Michigan) is too scary.....after living around the US and traveling the globe.

So for now i'm catching up on my pictures and doing some scans, uploading and editing and doing some research for Africa and Thailand.  Gosh sometimes I'm looking at a picture that I took and I forget which country I was in?
