Now it's time to start the world around journey the other way around. Yesterday we came home from Warsaw where we calibrated my parents 60 years birthdays. So now I am home for one whole day, fixing the last minute packing and shopping. In the evening I still have some time to meet some friends.

Tomorrow in the morning I head towards Madrid with a transfer in Frankfurt. I think I been in Frankfurt over 10 times I am always having my transfers there. I am not nervous at all compered to the last World Around trip, but it was very different to do it the last time, everything was new. Now I know I can cope. The new thing is to study and actually live abroad. The first month of this trip will mostly be holidays. I am meeting Linda, my friend in Madrid, she has been working there at the Finnish embassy for the summer. Then I am heading for Los Angeles and meeting Andy there. We will attend the SIGGRAF 2008 for the week and then make a tour with a car for a week. Then the main destination is Seoul, and studying there for the fall semester. After that I decided to travel a bit in Asia so my tickets are taking me to Taiwan, Philippines, Indonesia, India and then via Austria and Germany back home.

I hope some friends will join me on my travels in Asia. Last time I learned to travel alone and know that i can cope, but it's just so much more fun to have the experience with a friend. So take a look at your calendar and at my travel plan and feel free to join me on the rout. Dates are flexible but the rout will be this.

Even if I am not too nervous I am exited and tomorrow the adventures begins again :)
