“The only thing more unthinkable than leaving was staying; the only thing more impossible than staying was leaving.” Elizabeth Gilbert
So the opportunity I've been dreaming of has finally arrived- I got a job offer to teach in Peru, effective... immediately! It's the chance of a lifetime and I have a million different thoughts going through my head. Is this the right choice for me? What am I going to come home to? What am I leaving behind? Will these things still be here waiting for me upon my return? Which will I regret more- staying, or leaving? I have to give up my job, my relationship and my home. It's almost too much to handle. But perhaps it's worth it to finally achieve a lifetime dream of mine...
Seems like this blog's about to get more action than it's seen in a long time. Let's see what the next few weeks hold. My next entry just might be written via a spotty internet connection in a Peruvian internet cafe. Actually sounds kind of exciting! Stay tuned!
