Don't get too excited Mum, I mean for leaving!
Yes, the flight is booked, the journey is set and the flight socks are on stand-by! I will be leaving on 4th September travelling to Buenos Aires via Brazil! I think I will be in Buenos Aires for about a week for orientation before travelling up to my project in Salta!
It suddenly seems very real and I'm a mix of excitement and nerves!
Tomorrow I go to Spain for a week leading a school trip of 30 teenagers on a 30 hour bus journey. I think if I can survive that a 12 hour flight will be a doddle! I also told my Tutor Group this week that I will be leaving. Out of 31 only 3 cheered so I think they must like me really! : ) Then today one said 'Miss, are you moving to Wales?' Another replied 'No stupid she's going to Argentina, that's in Spain.' Oh dear, I'll have to have a long talk with them before I leave!
Huge thanks again and again to all who have been working hard on my behalf to raise money and been so generous in donating. I am now past the £10,000 mark meaning there's just £5,000 to go. Wow!
If anyone is in or near Sheffield on the 9th July please come and join me for goodbye drinks at Poppolo Bar from 8pm onwards. Let me know if you want more details-I'd love to see you there!
More news soon! (I think I've used up my quota of exclamation marks!)
Have a great week.
Jo xx
