WOAH, WE’RE HALFWAY THERE!
No, this is not a blog post about Bon Jovi. Sorry to disappoint.
Today marks 6 months since leaving home and landing in Malaysia. It’s been an insane 6 months, you know all the adventures and stories so I won’t make you read them all again.
To celebrate this momentous occasion, Lyall and I treated ourselves to a Pizza Hut. Scandalous, I know!
I’ve got a few more insane and crazily busy months coming up.
A last minute decision means that Hannah will be coming out at the start of March, and she will be joining us for English Camp and Activity Week at school. I’ll have a week at school before I head off to Singapore and Bali with some of the other volunteers. I’ll have another week at school, and then I’ll be meeting mum, dad, and Emma in KL and travelling to Singapore, Chiang Mai and Penang with them. They’ll also be coming to Lenggong for a day. Then in June, we have booked to go to the Perenthian Islands and Borneo.
Project Trust have given us our return date. I will be landing in Edinburgh on 28 July so I expect to see you all there with balloons and banners!
I’m still surprised that I’ve lasted 6 months, especially when I lack cooking skills, and I’m surprised Lyall is still alive after 6 months! Hopefully we will be able to survive the next 160 days!
Looking back and reflecting on the last half year, I realise what an amazing opportunity I have been given and how I need to continue to make the most of it. Thank you all again for making this possible for me.
See you all soon!
