Found out less than a week ago that I am going to New Zealand for a month in 2007 thanks to Rotary International's Group Study Exchange. I'll be sort of a goodwill ambassador representing the Hudson Valley of New York as well as my profession, massage therapy, movement and bodywork.
For the month of March. 2007, I'll be traveling in and around the Wellington area, meeting Rotarians and their families in their homes, giving presentations about massage and the Hudson Valley, learning about how my profession is done in NZ via vocational pairings as well as sightseeing and touring.
So much to do in so little time - trying to get all my paperwork in order, get my uniform, insurance papers, I'll have to pay my taxes before I leave, create a presentation, get gifts for my hosts, figure out what to pack, video camera anyone? I'm sure there's a lot more to think about than I've already thought about, and that's a lot!
