day zero: 22:35pm
this time tomorrow i will - should all go to plan - be trying to take a bite out of the big apple. these are very exciting times, but equally draining. on the plane tomorrow morning it will be a lot more than just the aircraft lifting, it will also be every niggle, worry and anxiety related to sorting out a trip of this magnitude. yes i may have forgotten my toothbrush or that additional pair of trainer socks, but the fact that there will be absolutely nothing that i can do about it will be immensely liberating. it is always a serious cliche to be 'leaving it all behind', but this time i hope i can just about get away with it.
put my blog into your favourites, i will try my best to update it every day - technology permitting - watch it grow and see if my waistline will follow suit as phase one of the expidition commences: a month in the united states of america.
