Preparation - part 1

Hello all,
If you are reading this, then you are interested in everything to do with my Kenya Trip... so here goes my attempt to keep an archive (Again, if you are reading this, you probably know me pretty well and know that I am usually quite ADHD, so this should be interesting if I can keep this up..)

So, so far, I have gotten a ticket, booked where I will be staying. Thanks to i-to-i travel, I will be staying somewhere relatively nice, and will be fed nice local food. I will be in Mombasa for the majority of the trip. February 10 to March 10 is the duration of the volunteering position. Its officially called a Sports Coaching position. If you are interested to know more about the i-to-i organization, visit www.i-to-i.com.

I also managed to get all my shots (They hurt!! Yellow Fever, Typhoid, Hep A/B, Standard Booster. Good tip, try not to do it all in one day, cause then your arms hurt for a few days!!)

I am still waiting for my visa from the Kenyan High Commission in Ottawa. Due to the STRICT lessons I have learned from my dad (NEVER LOSE/LEAVE YOUR PASSPORT, TICKET, or VISA), I was a bit paranoid about having to send my passport away in order to receive the visa.. after all.. what if they don't send it back?! (See Dad, you taught me well!)

Hmm.. other than that, I am still learning more about the country and where I can travel and what I can see while I am there.

Anyways, this was the start, and hopefully I will have more interesting items to post in the future.
