Fabulous A380 Photo by Grégoire DELATTE
It is a fact. I am in a dream-like state. Those of you who know of my journey through the past 15 years will understand, and for those of you who are not familiar with the details behind how I got into business, let’s just say it is still a bit surreal to think that in just a few short hours
I will be embarking on a journey of 7,968 miles from Los Angeles to Melbourne, to teach at the Summer School in Winter calligraphy conference (my first conference). To say that I am eager with anticipation would be an understatement to say the least, and I am filled with gratitude for this opportunity.
The process of preparing for international travel, to teach two classes over five days at a conference, in addition to juggling my daily work, jobs and life – all jam-packed into a mere 3 months – has been incredible to say the least. Oh … and the part where I didn’t receive my passport until last Friday (barely 5 days before the plane leaves, despite proper planning) made my hair catch fire for sure! But I am happy to say that the bags are virtually packed full with art supplies and winter wear (I adore the rain and cool weather!), and I am looking forward to the experience.
Feel free to stop by regularly over the next few weeks (or subscribe to the blog by clicking the button over there on the right 
) to see what’s happening … because if I keep my fingers crossed and my hair parted just right, all will go as planned and I’ll be posting lots about my adventure! xoxo
