        Sabaidi (Good day in Lao). So if you havn't figured things out by the time you've come across my blog I'm traveling (Duh). I'm moving through five different countries over a period of eight and a half months. I will be doing a range of things throughout these countries from teaching, to Muy Thai classes to working with pandas. This entry is essentially for those who don't know what I'm doing out in these countries or how long I'm going to be gone for.  My itinerary is as follows:

-Two months in Laos teaching novice Buhddist monks English. All the way from ages 10-17.
-Two weeks in Thailand , first week spent doing Muay Thai classes and the second doing a cycling tour through Thailand
-Two weeks in Cambodia, first week learning about the culture of Cambodia with the second touring the ancient ruins of Angkor Wat.
-Three weeks in China, one working on a panda reserve project, a week focusing on China's culture, and one last week doing outdoor activities such as boat tours, hiking, rock climbing
-One week back in Thailand on a little island off the coast called Koh Samet, to kickback and enjoy the beach and Thai sun.
-Two months in Phuket, Thailand to start participate in a marine conservation project
-One week in Cape Town, South Africa doing just general travel and sightseeing
-Two and a half months in Johannesburg, South Africa working at a resort located on a game reserve out in the African desert.
-Home! Back to LAX on May 16th

        It's a lot to do in an 8 month period, and my journey is just starting, I am both excited and nervous for what is in store but whatever happens I will keep you posted as much as I can and tell you my story in the most professionally sarcastic way possible. Feel free to share my experiences with friends and family and I genuinely thank you for taking the time out of your day to read my story and for joining me in my travels!

Cheers.
