And this one starts in good old Basingstoke...two days to go till I fly out to Fiji, so I decided to get started with writing this thing. Feels wierd. This is the first time I do something like this (write stuff that's going to go up on the web for anyone to read). Obviously there not much to say apart from I think the excitement is starting to manifest itself as a vaguely nauseous feeling in my stomach. But I still don't think I've fully captured that I am going out there for 6 months (maybe more!). I get the feeling I am treating this like yet another short work trip - I haven't packed yet and I'm not planning to take much more than essential clothes and shoes, my laptop and a good book for the (24 hour) flight. Oh well, I'm sure it'll all work out. And that's likely to be my motto from now on!

hi Kat or shall i say noaia e mauri! I stumbled across your web page and I couldn't help but laugh to myself as I read your very first entry above, before you came to Fiji. I bet you never imagined that you would meet your Shrek in Fiji!! ha ha by the way, what an amazing journal you have kept of all your travels. I got lost reading through and looking at all your pictures. I had to try really hard to actually get some work done. filo
