Six months to go and counting...

I can't describe in better words on how excited I am, I know it has been six months since I went on my first solo international holiday to America and all I can say, was the best vacation so far, and after many months of thinking and pondering. Last April I finally made my decision and bought my flight ticket back to America - Yes, you read correctly, I am returning back to the United States of America for three weeks after Christmas this year. I will be staying mostly in the Pacific Northwest - Portland, Oregon and Vancouver, Washington; this is where all my friends reside. The good things are that the flight ticket is already bought and my annual leave has been approved - the dates will not be disclosed here.

The last time, I stayed was extremely short; three days wasn't enough and I was extremely disappointed so that is why I have made my decision to make it up and get to know my friends more, they also get the opportunity to know their aussie friend more too. It is going to be a very good holiday - there are few events in store like:

- New Years Eve Celebrations
- Snow trip with friends and for one of our friend's birthday
- Irish Pub event
- Deaf Starbucks gathering
- Few days stay in Salem, Oregon
- Farewell dinner
- ...and more.

I am pretty much sure there will be more things to do while I am in Oregon/Washington, on the other hand, there will be some few surprises here and there, which will not allowed to be mentioned here, which it will be revealed once done - this is for the sake of my friends, and it is in-part of my top secret plans. *evil laughter*

At the moment, I am researching for the appropiate travel insurance, since I would be possibility be going to the snow trip, as it would be my first time to try in my whole life, I wouldn't risk any injuries without any travel insurance, they are the most important documents I will need also there is other things I will need to organize such as domestic flight to Sydney which this will be taken care of later in the year - I also already started to save money so I could use it as spending money and it is of course, to keep me sane and to have fun while I am on vacation.
