HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY MISS!

I'm sitting in the woodstock school, and though it is not the 14th yet, I'm sure I won't have internets at the time, So i'm writing this with my hands stinging in the cold (the entire school is un-heated) and hail pelting the window. Anyway, as you know, stanley is accompanying me on this trip- but what you don't know is where we've been. Though I do

n't have pictures of the last two big hikes (one through a jungle and one on the safari) stanley has become a regular figure around me. The ladies love him and think it's adorable that I carry him around - you come up in conversations alot on hikes as he hangs out on my backpack. So I've created this blog as a little place to post pictures of stanley and I as we travel around the world, a little gift just for you
(so I won't fade

so fast).
I'll post little thoughts here for you when letters are hard to send, and pictures i think you'd find nice or funny. So keep checking here every once and a while and you might have a nice surprise- be it a song, lyrics, poems, e-sticky notes, or just a picture of the amazing world we both live in. I'm having so much fun here despite missing some fairly basic things like hugs, your smile, certain western foods, and water that isn't poison. Bises,
