Home and Away:

Phew! Found the $300, and just in time too: I leave for South Africa today. I’ll be visiting family and friends for about three weeks, as well as sorting out all the stuff that will need to be shipped to Canada in May. The warmer weather, together with the incredible food, will make for a pleasant break.
I’m afraid posting may be quite ‘irregular’ for the duration, as I won’t have access to a PC other than at my friends’ houses. Internet cafe’s are also by no means ubiquitous. I’ll do what I can though.
