Jaan has some news... (possibly good)


It's official!

Well, I finally have some useful information to post on this stinkin' site. Yes, that's right. Hold on to your hats boys and girls - I got my ticket out of this hell-hole. Nah, that's a lie. I've just booked my flights out of Adelaide for a few months. Keep in mind these are the initial dates, which will more than likely change, but here's my plan for the moment:

I depart Adelaide on Monday, August 22nd 9:05am
Arrive in Sydney 11:25am
Depart Sydney 1:25pm
Arrive L.A. 9:45am (argh, where did the day go?!)
Depart L.A. 12:52pm (no schmucky 12 hour wait for this boy)
Arrive Vancouver 3"39pm (that's still August 22nd for anyone who wants to meet me there.)
Depart Toronto Friday, October 28th 7:55pm
Arrive London Saturday, October 29th 8:00am (peter, trudy, Becky – this one's for you to remember)
Depart London Friday, December 2nd 9:25pm
Arrive Bangkok December 3rd 3:40pm
Depart Bangkok Friday, December 16th 5:40pm
Arrive Sydney Saturday, December 17th 6:25am
Depart Sydney 10:20am
Arrive Adelaide on Saturday the 17th December at a loverly noon o'clock.

So between arriving in Vancouver and my flight to London from Toronto is where I'll be doing all my Canadian trekking and majority of doco filming. I wasn't able to get another stop in Europe, so I figure just over a month between arriving and leaving London gives me a bit of time to see what I can be bothered seeing in the immediate area (Wales, Scotland, maybe even France and Spain). We'll see what happens.

As most of you know, Alice was going to come up to Bangkok and keep me company for the two weeks I'm there. however, due to good ol' TAFE, which doesn't finish until December 16th, that doesn't look like happening. So if we can't work out anything, I'll more than likely spend a bit more time in both Canada and Europe, and just do Bangkok as a stop-over. We'll see.

So yeah, y'all proud of me? I'm pretty happy - considering I only really first thought about it yesterday. No time wasting for this monkey! I'll make sure to post any changes, but Ben, this gives you a rough outline if you wanna do any Canadian venturing with mwa.

This is your Captain signing off for now. Stay tuned for a later update.

hey - cool - great news! certainly no time wasting for you!
so do you plan on wwoofing it across canada or just bus about and chill with pals on the way?
judging by the tiny smear in the picture - the wax impression of yourself appears to be holding an STA sheet - did you get the round the world then?

Woo Hoo!!!!!

Yay Jaan, I'm so proud of you and so happy for me!!!

Looking forward to it. I wouldn't recommend a stopover in Bangkok though, thailand is heaven on earth and you don't get to go there that often, think about even just 4 days on an island...
