About this blog

here we are!! the day has come at last (well in 7days but who is counting!)for me to head off to Sri Lanka with Smile international helping to teach in a school. Many of the children will heva been affected by the tsunami in 2005. Feel free to laugh at whatever trouble i get into and say a few prayers for me as i try to cope with foreign food and any snakes I meet out there.
