So... I bought my plane ticket today. I leave for Istanbul on April 21. Fly home from Cairo October 21. Who knows what happens inbetween? Not really an important update, just significant to me mentally, as it's somewhat of a point of no return.
Steven will not be going with me. He's decided to go his own direction towards Germany and such. So, my adventure is once again a solo gig. Good luck to you Steven!
Talk to ya soon...

Hello all... this will be the new format for my new trip. If you don't know already, I will be going to the Middle East for 6 months. We leave in April to Istanbul... from there we will go by land through Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel and Egypt.... and fly home from Cairo 6 months later. My friend Steven is going with me. Links and contact info are on the side as well as a link to my blog and my pictures from the last adventure. This should be alot easier to keep up to date, so maybe you'll get more regular updates this time. Next entry will probably be just before I leave. until then.... peeeeeeeeace -CJ
