...especially when you've been married as long as I have. But sometimes in life, you have to know when you've outgrown each other, and just move on. And so I write this letter to you, as an homage to the important role you've played in making me the person I am today.

I Look Good for 60
While my 35th birthday isn't until June 16th, I did turn 60 on June 8th upon arrival into Estonia. 60 countries visited. It was a festive occasion. The captain of the ferry from Helsinki to Tallinn gave me a hug and a hearty handshake. There was a parade through the streets of Old Town Tallinn, and to top it all off, the Prime Minister of Estonia gave me the key to the City of Tallinn for the day. Or none of that stuff happened and upon leaving the ferry I had to schlep about 1/2 mile on the cobblestone streets of Tallinn with my large backpack in tow and then climb 4 flights of stairs to get to my hostel.

Packing it In
One of the questions friends and family most frequently ask me is, "How/What do you pack for a trip like this?" The answer often repulses them, but you can't pack an outfit a day and a pair of shoes to go with each outfit like a lot of people would do for week's vacation. You have to be practical and learn to make a little go a long way.
