Brett's Southern Crossing

It’s amazing how quickly I’m coming up to my trip.  With the holidays and a few other trips (like the wedding) the weeks have evaporated so quickly.

I’ve got my flight booked, I’ve sold all my furniture (my apartment is just a mattress and box springs on the floor now, I’m like a squatter in an abandoned house), I subletted my apartment, I quit my job, and I’m partway back to Michigan with a car load of files and sentimental items for storage.  My brother is buying my car.  That leaves me with the following to take care of:

• Sell a spare cell phone, my computer, and the mattress and box springs
• Figure out what I’m going to put in my backpacks, and give the rest to goodwill
• Repaint and clean my apartment
• Find a place to stay in Argentina…I’d like to couchsurf for the first week
• Watch football, drink, and generally visit with my friends

And that’s about it really.
