We haven’t figured out all of our itinerary yet, but here’s what we know so far:
Between now and Oct. 28, pack up apartment, drive to California to see family and friends and leave our car in Palo Alto.
Oct. 29-Nov. 14: Costa Rica to visit my cousin Carlyn and travel with our friend Jenkay
Nov. 14-Nov. 20: California to hang out with friends and family.
Nov. 20- Dec. 1: Travel with friends to Coron, Palawan and Sagada, Mountain Province in the Philippines as part of a reunion trip for the language program Maia and I did in the Philippines, Tagalog On Site.
Dec. 1-Dec. 30: Hang out in the Philippines with family and friends. Hopefully travel with our friend Wendy to Bicol to visit our grad school advisor Chris.
Dec. 30-Jan. 2: New Year’s in Boracay with our friends Squirt and Kim.
January and part of February: A bit up in the air. Potentially Laos, Chiang Mai (Thailand) to see Damon’s cousin Katie and her family, and Australia to see our friends Kent (Sydney) and Alden (Melbourne).
Feb. 15-Feb. 19: Hang out with my dad in Manila
Feb. 19: Return to California. And then? East Coast? Skiing? Venezuela? UK? Kind of unclear.
April 23: Return to work.

Dude, your map is cooler than mine. It’s the Russia bit – adds a lot of red.

Dear Tothano and Travellerblogue,
I love the maps, too. But now I think it would be weird if I had one, too, considering you guys make up half my blog links.
Maybe after I visit a few more countries . . . .

We were torn between Tothano and Albatoth… Some of my old housemates brainstormed some really weird joint last names- the most hilarious of which was “Dothelamba”. No recollection how they got to that one.
The maps are addictive- particularly when you add something like China and Russia that take up a whole lot of area. We’re considering going to Brazil. Partly because our friend Jesse is there. Partly because it would be a lot of area for South America.

On the verge of having tix! Sister is coming to Philippines for first week and is flexible like me (but likely to be a bit freaked at first). Gonna be cool. Lets figure out some skeleton plans when possible….
