I'm lost. I have been for a while I might add, and I'm still not too sure I've found where I want to be, but here goes; my Godot could be in Nepal.
Rather than spend my life waiting for my Godot in Carlisle, I've taken the plunge and accepted a job in Nepal, as the first ever Press Officer at Dhulikhel Hospital. No pressure. For those of you who may not already know, Dhulikhel Hospital is Kathmandu University's prestigious NGO hospital, covering a whooping population of 1.9 million people from far and wide.
I figured it was about time I cleared out of my mother's humble detached, and actually tried out something different, something I could actually call my own. I still don't quite know why I'm choosing to find my vocation in Nepal (other than the fact my good friend Tshering recommending me to the hospital), but here's hoping I can change my life, and maybe at a push, a few others' too.
I've started this blog as a way to keep in touch with friends from all over, but also in the hope I can eventually give advice to those of you who wish to emigrate to Nepal, whatever your reasons may be, wherever you may be emigrating from.
Thus, wherever this journey may take me, I hope it will give me a more rounded view on other worlds, other cultures, and I hope to meet so many interesting and world-wise people along the way. There's still so very little I know about any of these things, I'm excited, nervous, bewildered, sick, scared, and enthralled at the thought of it.
Here's hoping that I am embarking on my first exciting journey of many to come and you learn with me as I go along. This could get messy, or it could be a beautiful, uproarious ride - whatever happens though, I can wholeheartedly say I am unprepared.
Thank you for joining me friends, I am completely honoured and as Lieutenant Iceman Kazanski says to Maverick, "You can be my wingman, any time."
