Nine days from today, I’m packing my backpack with four shirts, two pairs of pants, the appropriate underwear, a first aid kit, notebook for prophecies, and a borrowed camera. Then, Comrade Chuck (who will be sporting a similarly assembled backpack) and I will board a plane and eleven days from today, God willing, we’ll find ourselves in Nepal. We’ll hike, bike, scooter, swim, canoe, raft, and otherwise transport ourselves across the country for three glorious weeks of vacation. We also intend to sleep in hostels, I mention this just because it sounds so cool! We’re stoked!
Prayers are much appreciated, especially since the elections are happening smack dab in the middle of our trip, then there’s the Maoists and stuff. Pray also for my lungs and appendages; Chuck is a supreme fitness practitioner who is going to be running up and down the Himalayas the whole time, I’m hoping to just make it to the top of whatever mountains we climb in one living piece. As anyone who knows me will testify, this will involve much prayer in order to happen.
We’ll be seeing you all later and el blog will be very boring unless sister Steph decides to update it. Will also try to crank out an Interview of the Month before I leave.
So now, when the Enemy comes with around with his discouragement, trying to tell me how uncool I am, I’m gonna be all like “Yo, I backpacked through Nepal. Get outta my face!”
