Some exciting news…

I have some news that I can’t keep in a second longer.

In about a month’s time, I will be saying farewell to Galway and Ireland and moving to Abu Dhabi.  It’s feels weird to write it because I still don’t believe it’s really happening.  I get a little bit choked up when I think about having to say goodbye to all my friends and my dear family.  That said, I have been itching to travel for a while now, and a new job opportunity presented itself at just the right time.  I have committed to staying at least a year, and I literally feel thrills of excitement thinking about what that year might bring.
