Changes

Hello from Alkmaar Holland! Here, there are Windmills outside my bedroom window. I am staying with a great couchsurfer who has been cooking great meals and taken me to her father's garden to plant strawberries. I am now traveling solo; just incompatible travel mates. So now I am going full tilt with the soul searching until the big race day!!

There is some big upcoming news that I will share... My parents are BOTH coming in May for two weeks! I am beyond excited. I have wanted them to come show me where I grew up since I started planning this trip. I feel like I will find what I am looking for now that I have them coming. Also, I see one of my best friends FRIDAY! She is flying in for the race, and we will go to Krakow for a whole week together. I am so excited to have some girl time ;) And last but not least, Mr.O, my russian lover, is going to hitchhike to come visit me :) I am so nervous and excited. Since I left Russia, I had this big question mark looming over my head, and a bunch of what ifs. Now, everything happens for a reason, and he and I will be able to get to know eachother better, and explore our feelings. So, as you might guess, there will be some interesting blogposts to come ;)

I am about to catch a train to stay on a houseboat! So I better run, but next time I will add more details ;) And they will be juicy ;)
Now, to add a little fuel to my soul searching fire, I just received a very strange email from my only ex-boyfriend. He said he had just randomly found my email...which I only created last january with my job...and he asked how I am doing.
WHY!?? I don't know, we havent spoken in over a year and a half...since September 2010 when I found out he was dealing drugs. I of course wrote him back, I mean, How sweet is it that I am traveling through Europe, and he is at home being boring. When I get a response, I will let you know!
Just my luck though, I go 2 years straight without any men in my life, and now I feel a bit overwhelmed!
