It's a pretty big world out there...

And I have finally decided to take full advantage of it. As of December 9th, I will no longer reside in Seattle, Washington and instead call Jongli, Taiwan home sweet home. I decided to move to Taiwan on top of a mountain about a week into my trip. What may seem likely a hasty decision is actually one I've been thinking about for a very long time. Maybe not Taiwan but overseas for sure. It just so happened that everything fell into place nicely and I will begin what could be a very interesting 'career' teaching English to little Taiwanese children. Now I know what you are thinking. How can someone who barely speaks proper English herself teach children the language. Well, my answer to that is: I have no friggin idea but I suppose that is part of the challenge and excitement and I'll figure it out along the way.

The next 6 months are about just that. Figuring it out as I go and being hopeful. I've lived a charmed life here in Seattle and have been quite fortunate and blessed It's time I set out on a little adventure and see where it takes me. Maybe back to Seattle or maybe on to a different country. Who knows. All I am sure of is that this decision feels good and right and that is all I need right now.

I hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving and I'll be here until the 9th of December. Oh, my phone will be disconnected on December 8th....
