One week til goodbye #1

Well, one week til I say goodbye to Calgary, the home I have had for the past year. Feeling excited at the changes coming my way..

So what am I doing? From Calgary I head to Montreal for a family event and get together. From there, I head to Antigonish, Nova Scotia, where I will have 3 weeks of training at St. Francis Xavier University. And... by the end of August I will be off to Ghana for a forestry internship.

I am super excited, but also sad to say goodbye to the friends I have made here. I know the time will fly by and I will see them again soon, but its always hard to leave a support system behind.

All is left to do this week is packing, cleaning, 4 day folk fest, and oh a few minor things like applying for a visa...
