After 48 hours of continuous travel, gosh is it nice to be home! Decided I should blog just one more time to wrap up this wonderful experience I have had. Words can' explain how grateful I am for this opportunity. I could go on and on but I still would never be able to explain what an impact this journey has had on me.

In no particular order here are some things I have been able to do since I have been away for the last 5 months.

Flew 25 hours across the world

Made a few life long friends

Learned to cook and shop for myself

Cuddled a Koala

Fed a few Kangaroos

Snorkeled in the Indian Ocean

Met people from 12 different countries

Rock repelled down the Kalbari Gorge

Swam with Manta Rays

Sat in Nature's Window

Held a Snake

Saw Ke$ha perform in concert

Danced at my first Night Club

Ordered my first Cider

Rode a Camel

Camped in the Outback

Went Crabbing

Slept through a Cyclone

Celebrated my 20th Aussie Style

Went on my first Pub Crawl and Party Bus

Visited my 6th continent: Thailand

Rode on Elephant

Visited James Bond Island

Canoed through caves

Jumped off a boat into the Indian Ocean

Experienced a Thai Culture show

Dressed in full Thai attired and had a photo shoot

Visited the Big Budda

Went for an Ox-ride

Saw an Elephant and Monkey Show

Went to the Dahlia Lama Convention

Saw penguins emerge from the ocean

Saw where the Pacific and Arctic Oceans meet

Snorkeled in the Great Barrier Reef

Drove through the Rainforest on a Army Duck

Saw the Great Baron Falls

Observed Aboriginal Dances

Threw a boomerang

Ate dessert for dinner

Climbed the Sydney Harbour Bridge

And much much more.

After all as Oprah once said "You haven't lived until you have been in Australia"

For the longest time I have had 4 goals in life.

1. Study Abroad

2. Visit all 7 continents

3. Have a successful career

4. Be happy

Now that I have certainly crossed off the first and gosh darn close to crossing off the second, I feel I can do just about anything. I am empowered and driven and I cannot wait to see what the future brings!

Thanks for reading & until next time!
