I didn’t think that we’d like Auckland as much as we do. We have been spoiled in the last month with music and socializing and eating out and attending lectures.

In the past week Dave and I have had some fairly significant milestones; Dave finally turned in his thesis (and is no longer absolved of his share in the household duties) and we both got word that we have been offered internships in Boston. After we stopped jumping on the bed and screaming about how happy we are, we started calling family and friends to let them know that we would be in the same hemisphere with them for June, July and August. Again, we’re doing our damnedest to arrange our lives in a way that we can have an endless summer.

Now my favorite refrain is, “what are you looking forward to most?” Next to the obvious things that we are both excited for (with one squishy little nephew being at the apex), we are both ecstatic that we have been given opportunities to work with organizations that we are truly inspired by.

So, beware - if you live within a four hour radius of Boston (either by plane or by car), we will be knocking at your door and sleeping on your couch.
