From April 2011 to June of 2013 I will be living and working in Botswana with the Peace Corps and will be blogging about life in Botswana, my work, travels and other observations about life in southern Africa.

The Packing Crunch
24 hours out and packing is proving to be quite challenge. Even me the nomad is finding it difficult to consolidate my life into 2 checked bags + a duffel. However, I know that by the time I'm ready to go to Charlotte airport on Thursday that I will have spent way more time agonizing about packing than was really necessary and I also have a feeling that a year from now I'll laugh at how stressful I thought this was. In fact it's a bit liberating to downsize my life this much. It boggles my mind to think that on Sunday I'll be in Gaborone, Botswana about to embark on the adventure of a lifetime, serving for and working with the Peace Corps in Botswana. Wow!
