Moving

Some day I will leave Namibia. (Right now that looks like April 2011) I will probably have a year and some months to kill, and I have no idea where I want to live. Living here in Namibia has taught me some things though.

First off, I don't like sand. I feel like i live on a sand dune, its sand everywhere all the time. I"ts like walking on the beach, people are like "ahh the sand is very fertile." and they are right, if you drop a seed in a pile of sand trees can just pop right up out of the sand. The bad part is except the the couple of small parts of pavement there is nothing other then sand, no dirt, no clay, no grass (at least green grass people are probably picturing when i say green grass), just sand.

Second, I am pretty sure I don't like the desert. Its always hot, sunny, and sandy, and boring. There is never a surprise, sometimes it "feels" cold now, ( I am a super wimp to cold now) and i miss snow and other things. I mean I live on one near most of the rivers in the country but its just not the same.

Lastly, MN is not that hilly but Duluth as at least a hill. Look at a map some time, the entire region has no hills what so ever. IF, "if" this area could ever get snow, the only place i could even try to sled would be where the snow was piled up by our one parking lot like area. This region so flat it boggles my mind. Nebraska may have more hills then where I am...... yeah Iowa does for sure, its just...... I am not a fan.

So yeah sitting here wondering what I actually want to do, So far ideas are.... try to travel for over a year, find a job somewhere, well.... pretty much anything I don't have the slightest clue whats happening.
