Time to change the title

When my visa was only extended by 6 months and not the whole year as I wanted, in May, I was kinda disappointed. But I was joking, that after another half a year in the states, I might be glad that I can go home.

Well, I am not saying that I can't wait to get out of here, but I feel like I am ready to leave. 16 months are a long time, I speak Czech like a five-years-old and think that it's about time to move on and out of my comfort zone and stereotype and towards some new challenges and adventures...

With that being said, it is obvious that this blog will soon need a new title. So I take suggestions - winner gets a chocolate (ships anywhere).

Also there is a quiz: Whice movie is the quote on the top from (the one with the cats).

Happy Thanksgiving.

What do you like about your life?

It's been a while since the last post and so couple days ago I started feeling like I should write a new one, so that you people who read this ... yes there are multiple people reading this stuff, I was surprised myself ... don't feel left out of my life and uninformed about my recent adventures.

There indeed are things to say. I've taken another and looks like for some time my last Green Tortoise trip - this time to the Yosemite national park - and took some pictures. Considering what a crappy photographer I am you can imagine how beautiful it has to be there.

Also I have changed my air ticket (several times) and I am flying "home" at the 30th December, if everything goes well landing in Prague at around noon on the 31st. Well new year, new country ... not for long though.

I want to defend my thesis, which is starting to look like it will be finished one day, visit my dentist and get vaccination against yellow fever and Kenyan visa.

Yep, Kenya. I am trying to get a volunteering job with the Center for International Voluntary Service in Nairobi and so far I haven't been told "no". So if things go well I will be in Nairobi by March 1st. I am applying for a position in the CIVS office helping with administration of their projects. For how long? I have told them 3 months to start, but who knows ... US were just for 10 months too.

So while already looking forward to my African plans I have started making a list of my American belongings I can't take on the plane and need to sell. I am still planning on coming back though ... maybe in couple months maybe couple years.

So what's up with the title of this post right? On Tuesday afternoon I was going to the city (that's how locals refer to San Francisco) by bus and a man sitting across the aisle suddenly leans to me asking if he can ask me a question. Overseeing the fact that he already did I made an encouraging face... "What do you like about your life?" I said I like having all the options I have and being able to make my own decisions an then bare the consequences good or bad nad live the life I chose.
