Well. It's official. We are going to ASIA! And we are going for two whole months. We have finally purchased our flights and are leaving the country, headed for Tokyo, on September 22nd.It's amazing to think this trip is really going to happen! I'm not sure I ever thought it would become a reality after one phone conversation Tucker and I had back in April. Driving back to Boston from Stamford, we chatted for a while and I said, "You know what? I really want to leave this country and see some of the world for a while." When Tucker admitted he wanted the same, I told him, "Well...then, we can never stop talking about it. Or it will always just be something we mentioned way back when, and will never actually become a reality."
And now, it's 3 months later - and our dream is real.
I am so proud of us for getting on this and just doing what we set our hearts out to do. Everyone always says "oh, I wish I could do that... maybe someday" but now I'm convinced that you have the power to make someday today. There is so much to do to get ready for this trip, (I mean, seriously, China wants us to give a kidney to get a visa) but the plane tickets are booked. And this journey is really going to happen.
I can't wait.
