Busy ahead

You know I was away (longest break away from this country since I moved here) hence the long period of silence.

Now we are back but I’m busy with a few things:
  1. Preparing for the imminent expedition to Musandam: I have won a scholarship and I will be taking part in a Marine Expedition courtesy of Biosphere Expeditions and HSBC. Very, very exciting to get back in the field once again!
  2. Preparing for this coming weekend of desert driving (lots of equipment to put together): I have signed up to take part in the Wahiba Challenge which will see me driving across the Wahiba desert in my 4x4 with a team of only women  so we have a number of weekends in preparation for the big challenge which is scheduled for the end of November.
  3. Studying: university has started again in full swing. A bit overwhelming. With all these commitments, visitors and chores I feel already snowed under and it doesn’t appear as much fun as the rest! :-P I will have to find some time!!
I will have to organize a couple of talks about the experience when I come back from the expedition, I have been approached for some work during the Christmas period, the dive centre will want to see me at some point and we have more visitors in November.

So here we go, certainly I will not be short of stories to write about but not sure about the time.

I’ll do my best to keep you updated.
