I’ve managed to cross a few more things off my to do list.

First off all my passport FINALLY arrived in the mail, just in time for me to send a copy of it to International Student Volunteers (the programme I am volunteering with). Not entirely sure why they needed a copy but I managed to get it in on time.

Not to mention the fact that I need a passport in order to travel and I was starting to get really worried that it wouldn’t arrive in time.

Next I handed in a form at the doctors that they would look over and then recommend the vaccinations I need. Really hoping I won’t be needing many because I really hate needles.

Oh well, a jab in the arm is a small price to pay for my health.

Although I can’t really say it’s a small price. Have you seen the cost of vaccinations lately? Pretty pricey.

Lastly I made a few more faceboook posts promoting my donation page:

The final payment deadline is looming and I’m almost there! Just a few more donations and I might make it.

I am really looking forward to leaving for South Africa and it makes it even better that I am going there for a good cause. I really believe that the work I will be doing will make a difference and have  positive effect, not to mention it will be so much fun and an amazing experience. I can’t wait to leave and then I’ll actually have something exciting to write about on the next blog post.
