my latest news shall now be reported below:

- physical work is indeed physical.
- was involved in my first burial excavation - sieved dirt and found teeth, dug soil to reveal bone and used brush so photos could be taken.
- have severe* windburnt face due to gale force winds hitting the hill i was working on.
- studying is a necessity to keep me sane, hence currently insane, hence returning to university next july to do postgraduate study in environmental management.
- heading back to canada and america at the end of april for a few months to visit friends**.

*severe in my opinion anyway.
**would love to mention all the canadians but too many. americans = karin.
