so today officially starts the countdown. a week from today i will be on my way to thailand. after an 11 hour flight to tokyo, i have a 3 hour layover and then another 7 hour flight into bangkok. it's pretty safe to say, i'll have a little jet lag. i will try to keep this as updated as possible throughout my travels. you can trust there will be plenty of pictures. i hope to get the chance to email people individually, but that will depend on my whereabouts i'm sure. so thank you all for your thoughts, prayers and love and i will see you soon.
