As I've been planning this trip many people have asked if I would be keeping a blog. I hemmed and hawed about it and have decided that I will attempt it. No promises that I will have anymore posts than this one, but I will try!
For those of you reading this that are unfamiliar with my plans, here is a quick break down:
Jan 12: Leave Canada and travel many hours to Ghana, Africa
Jan 13- Feb 25: Volunteer at United Hearts Children Centre in Ghana
Feb 26-Mar 4: Travel to Poland and Germany
Mar 4-April 27: Complete a french program in southern France
April 28-May 25: Backpack through Italy, Croatia and Greece
I am lucky to be travelling with my bff, Leah. Since we met in first year university we have been saying we were going to travel after our undergrad, and here we are 4.5 years later and almost ready to take off. It's been a lot of work planning and preparing for this trip and packing for five months (in one backpack!) and various climates but I feel really lucky to have this opportunity and can't wait for it to begin!
Good luck Emma & Leah! You guys will have an absolutely amazing time. Expect to come back completely changed by this 5 month experience. Look forward to hearing how everything goes through this blog or, if you are waaaay too busy, from you both first hand at the end of the year!

P.S. Definitely didn't keep up my attempt at blogging...
