Xin chao!

Hello everybody. Unfortunately I had to go to school today, and to make matters worse we had a science test :( I was busy being excited on the weekend. Mum and I went to our local shopping centre, and I took my resume to every single shop........well almost. Fingers crossed someone wants me to work for them, cause I don't think $5,900 is going to magically appear. ;)

While we were at the shopping centre, Mum had me try on a backpack. But not just any backpack is was one of those really big trekking backpacks. Like this:

It's not that big, for most people, but I am not the biggest person in the world. As part of the World Challenge Program we have to go on a trek, so there I will be in the wilderness of Vietnam, carrying this big, heavy backpack. 

I'm still really exited though, a couple of my friends are going too, so it shall be a big, fun adventure. 

Yesterday I was having a look at a stack at travel books on Vietnam. I'm not so sure about some of the food though. Eating snake and dog doesn't really appeal. 

I can't believe that it still a year and a half away, but I'm glad because it gives me more time to raise the money!!
