Yesterday I had the dreaded 'I'm going away to travel' conversation. She, as always was lovely and gracious in hearing news that I knew would through her department into disarray. I was nearly certain that it would spell a resignation from the position as 3 months is a really long time to take leave from work. But equally she knows my position and that this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime kind of opportunity.
Long story short - I get to come back to my position at work after I get home! Yay!
I am very excited by the security that this provides and also by the peace of mind I have now, knowing that I have done the professional thing. It's a first for me.
So 5 weeks tonight I fly out.
I am going to miss those I love. They know who they are.
And I think it will offer good thinking and growing time.
It is exciting stuff.
