All Roads Lead to Home

Flight leaves at 9:50pm tonight from Rome to Milan, where I pretty much stay the night, and then Milan to Frankfurt at 7:25am, and then at 9:45am I fly out of Germany, out of Europe, across the ocean, across much of the continental United States, and land in Portland at 11:20am. Then I unpack, wash clothes, buy running shoes, repack, try to remember how to play clarinet and deal with middle-schoolers, and drive to Salem for YMA. Then when I get back, I call this Mike guy that good buddy Trevor Wunn has buttered up to hire me working asphalt this summer where I apparently start at $10.00 an hour, get plenty of hours, and will hopefully make enough money to be able to live like a person while at the University of Aberdeen, in Aberdeen, Scotland, whence I received my official acceptance e-mail today. It's been fun, I have enjoyed Rome immensely, I will post all of my pictures on a post or website for further perusal for those interested, and stay tuned for my fall travel blog, most likely to be titled along the lines of "I'll Take the High Road."

Veni, vidi, victus sum.
