All systems are go...

So I spent 12 hours in a car today driving to and from Ft. Lauderdale to get my required medical exam to make sure that I am fit to be at sea and live essentially.

Im beat. but everything is a go. Got my new passport, passed my medical exam, and my trip to Italy is paid and good to go.

On April 10th, I leave to Italy....

ALL SYSTEMS GO.

Cheers

Exactly 30 days from today, I will leave Tampa on my way to Miami. The great beginning to a year of world travel. I am so freaking excited I cant contain it.

I have been just chillin', organizing, and planning dinners, and short trips to see family before I am gone for a year. I have also taken a part time job with the Tampa Bay Lightning running the sound for the outside plaza. So any artists that come out there, I am there FOH engineer. Its a been great so far, and I am working allot. I have already met Dave Andrychuk (spelling?) Mayor Pam Iorio, and other influential Tampons that are involved in this great city's sports.

I am driving to Miami on Friday for my medical exam that all seafarers have to take before they embark on vessels that are sea-bound with passengers. So that will be a long day.

Anyway, I am listening to Jamie Cullum[AWESOME] (www.jamiecullum.com) GO BUY HIS NEW RECORD!!!!


Peace Peeps

The first of many to come...

Hello anyone who read this. (listening to Coldplay Viva la Vida -Yes!)

I am in the middle of the final day of my "indoor garage sale" Bizarre, I know. Jamie's idea. Enough said. It has been relatively successful though. I have gotten rid of most of my large items, and so there isn't much left.

Why am I having this sale you ask? Well thats because I am the new Audio Director for the Seabourn Sojourn Luxury Yacht Cruise-liner. Which translates to I am moving to Italy where the boat is in dry-dock to get her ready for her first voyage on June 2nd. I will be cruising the UK and Mediterranean for the first 5 months, then on to the Caribbean for a month. Then one more voyage of 7 months from Los Angeles to England hitting Australia, India, Hong Kong, Japan, UAE, Greece, and other spots before ending up in South Hampton England in May of 2011. For a more in-depth view of my travel plans you can check out the companies website www.seabourn.com I will try to update this blog daily once I begin my journey.

For the next month I will be getting all my things together for my big trek across the sea. I am taking a cruise over to Italy, cause I STILL dont fly! :-) So look forward to pictures, and my thoughts on a vast array of the life around me of a world explorer. I will miss my home country, but I will be back before you know it, with plans to lay my head in NYC to finally puruse music, and writing.

Talk to you all April 10th, 2010.
