Wander Lust...

For a long time, I've been wanting to get out of here. I WANT TO GET OUT OF HERE!!! I love Utah, don't get me wrong, but I've lived here my whole life, and never spent a significant amount of time anywhere else. I just want to see the world! I am well aware of the fact that Utah is a major bubble, and I am ready for something new.

So I've been looking at a couple of options. One would be to go volunteer in Hati. Crazy, but cool. There's a group of college students from Provo, including my friend, there doing some really cool stuff. So thats one option.

Another option I've been looking at is being a nanny or au pair, either somewhere here in the U.S., or in Europe. I have lots of childcare experience, and I love it, and I would love to travel around with a cute little family. Last night, I registered with an au pair website, and 24 hours later, here I am, with 14 OFFERS! What the heck?!??! How come I didn't do this before? It all sounds really exciting, but scary too. I don't have a passport, and I have no idea what I would have to do to get one and get any other legal stuff in order. What if I got stuck with some creeper family? What if I'm super bored and there's nothing to do?

So thats the situation.

I'm overwhelmed, and I don't know how to move forward. I want to do something cool! Please! Cue everything falling into place.......... NOW. Thanks a bunch. See you in Spain! Or Germany! Or...., (If they let me in.)
