Links to other blogs
 There are so many other lives and worlds to travel to just on the Internet. I’ve read so many blogs from travelers, expats, students, teachers, you name it. I’m also a writer with writerly friends who love to share their stories.
So, here are links to other blogs I’m either writing for OR that I just plain like. Enjoy the journey.

I’m addicted to all of your blogs. Thanks so much for giving us glimpses of what life over there is like. Any words of wisdom for those of us who are just beginning the process?

Glad you’re enjoying. Words of wisdom: be patient. Very patient. Also be persistent, but not pushy. If you expect things to be very different from home, you’ll not be disappointed.

Hi there! Thanks for checking out mine. I’m soooooo in the wtf am I doing stage? And, I haven’t even had the in-person yet. On the one hand I’m excited, on the other (especially after reading the nightmare blogs) I’m like really, am I insane? Do you have any advice for me? I guess my real question is if you could go back to where I am now, what would you tell yourself? Thanks for any words of wisdom! And, if I do end up going, maybe we’ll get to meet up.

whoops. sorry. I just realized you’re further along than me, but not yet there. Have you gotten your flight details yet? Are you going insane with the wait? I’ll be in the same boat as you come August (if interview goes well). I’ll have money saved for the trip over there, but the longer I’ll be waiting the less of that money I’d have….
