The Flight is Booked!

Well I finally broke down and booked my flight. The price will probably drop again but I still feel fortunate to have only paid $550CDN vs. the $800CDN I paid last year. It is a two week flight but I won't be using the return leg until next spring. Unless I do something crazy and return to Canada after only two weeks in Mexico. I can't see that happening ... I am much too conscientious to back out of my obligations down there.

The living situation is working out well. I'm at Casa Andrea rent free for the first month and a bit. Colleen and I spoke last night and we are committed to taking her old two bedroom apartment on Callejon Almendo. It's a sweet deal for $600US a month with phone, cable, laundry and internet also available. And the location is great too ... except that I will have to walk by Que?Pasa every night on my way home from work. Oh darn! LOL

I am actually finding it difficult to leave Canada this time and wondering if that has more to do with how I'm feeling about living here or living there. I know I don't want to do winter ever again but now I'm thinking that life in BC wouldn't be bad, or even California. Now that my life is contained in a few suitcases and a dozen boxes, it is amazing how liberated I feel! But also unanchored too ... it is just such strange juxtaposition of feelings.

I've decided I'm going to try to keep this Blog going while I'm down south so as to give family and friends some insight into my life as a gypsy. I will try not to get too personal as I don't want everyone knowing "my business" but I will try to maintain my honesty and integrity while posting. Let's just hope it doesn't come back to bite me in the ass! Hahaha!
