This is an improvement compared to last January where my 43 hour trip
took me through Copenhagen, London, New York, Huston and Mexico city before i
arrived in Mazatlan. I'm thankful that Aalborg Airport a few months ago made
this new route to Amsterdam. This makes my life so much easier and I'm convinced
they did it just for me and Lupita :)
Why i'm going

The project is really exciting and Lupita and I look forward to join Chris' and God's vision for Mexico City.
My departure Tuesday means that i have to start preparing for leaving Denmark again. I've after searching for some time finally decided for a travel insurance. I choose one from Gauda that doesn't cover small things but cover the big and important things, so i just pray that i won't need it :)
So that is one thing that i can cross off my todo list which by the way i feel is alarmingly short, but i think it will get longer through today and tomorrow.
Since new year I've been working to earn just a little more before i leave. My financial situation right now is fine for the first months in Mexico, but after that i hope that i find a way to have enough money to pay the staff fees (that covers living and food at the base). I'm going to write to a christian found that my little brother told me about. I hope they want to support me, but I've been waiting to write them because i still don't have a complete overview of what my monthly expenses will be in Mexico even though i have a good idea. Also if anyone knows a found that they think would support this project i'm more than interested in hearing from you.
With the
money i'm happy that the exchange rate has been changing a little in favor of
my danish dollars :)
January 2011 - 100 DKK = 210 Pesos
December 2011 - 100 DKK = 251 Pesos
January 2012 - 100 DKK = 231 Pesos
So it went down a bit, but still better than last January.
All in all I'm excited to get to Mexico, and i'm especially excited to meet Lupita's family and spend some time with them and Lupita before we go to join the team.
