The countdown is on

I have one all-too-short week left in Australia to erase the jottings from my slightly concerning "to do" list. I am already a mess of  emotions and cliches. While there is certainly excitement and anticipation for the journey ahead there is also a sense of obligation, guilt and sadness at leaving my family and friends for 3 months. There's the inevitably self sabotaging expectation of self relating to the outcome of the book.  A kind of sick feeling about getting up at 4am in order to make my flight and a sensation somewhere between fear and ecstasy regarding the unknown experiences that await. 
Seriously. Suck it up Jane and focus.
