Home Sweet Home

Well my first seven weeks in Almaty have finished and I can tell you that Iam really excited about returning home. A lot has happened in my personal life since I left Brisbane back in January and it will be really good to see everyone again. And of course, I will get to ride my motosickle!!!!

I have never spent so long away from so many things that I love - to be honest I didn't think I would be so keen to return, but I think when it is cold and you are kind of stuck indoors it can get a little frustrating. I really didn't do too much while in Almaty - just spent time getting used to how everything works. When I return for my next stint I will be able to spend a bit more time outdoors - I do know a few of us are planning a golfing weekend just over the border in Bishkent, Uzbekistan on the weekend after I return, so no doubt I will have plenty to write about.

Anyway, I just experienced my first bit of weather above 10 degrees when I got off the plane in Singapore - only about 27 but raining and humid, just like home. Tis good!! Less than a day till I'm home again!!
