We hope all of your preparations are going well for our upcoming adventure and that this introductory blog entry finds you all well. This blog will be a very useful way to tell the story of our trip to your friends and loved ones, so please pass this address on to them or tell them how to find it through the Carpe Diem website’s blog link.
Allison and I are currently in Portland managing the various logistical details for our rapidly approaching departure. We have spent the winter break visiting friends and family in North Carolina and Vancouver, Canada – staying mobile to honor our inner nomads. Making phone calls and perusing the “student files” has revealed to us that we will be traveling with an incredibly interesting group of students and we can’t wait to explore this fascinating region with you all.
For those of you who haven’t spoken with us over the phone yet, expect that fateful call within the next couple of days. We are so excited to meet you all and look forward to a spectacular semester.
Happy packing!
Adam and Allison
