I’ve seen this meme buzz around all week. So here’s me:

…

1. I hate housework. But I’m a housewife.

2. I love to travel, and explore new cultures, people, lifestyles, food. When I go to a new place, I don’t mind doing touristy things (I love history too), but I prefer seeing what it’s like to live like a local… I like seeing the world through other people’s perspectives and trying to understand people who are different from me. It helps remind me that the world does not revolve around me and my own experiences (a very important quality to have, in my book).

3. Even though I love to travel, I absolutely HATE plane rides. I’m always super freaked out, especially during take off, landing, and turbulence. Yes, I’m wimpy. And at least once or twice a year, we take a trip where it involves crossing an ocean (Atlantic or Pacific, take your pick), so I deal with this fear quite often. =)

4. My husband was my one and only boyfriend. We were each other’s first of nearly everything. I wouldn’t have it any other way. =)

5. Some people say I resemble the actress Neve Campbell. I still can’t figure out why, I think we look nothing alike.

6. This June 1st, I’ll have been married 5 years. We’re taking the weekend off to Napa, possibly a B&B, a spa, and of course, wine tasting.

7. This August, Hubby and I will be going to Kenya for a couple weeks. We will be in Nakuru (a couple hours north of Nairobi), helping out with a free medical camp for those in need, and doing local outreaches in the neighborhood. I’m feeling nervous, excited, and unprepared all at once. We are currently raising support (financial and prayer) for this trip. (And yes, the plane ride there is going to be LONG - see #3 above). =P

If you like this meme, consider yourself tagged! And of course, let me know if you’re doing it, so I can come over to your blog and take a peek at it too. =)
