About My Trip
In May 2008, I'm heading to the US to join a harvest crew, working my way from Texas through to North Dakota, over a period of about eight months.
The trip is completely removed from anything that I've experienced before and, apart from a few romantic notions, I have no conception of what I'm going to.
But it's exactly this - the off-the-wall nature of the experience, full to the brim with unknowns - that makes me know that it is exactly what I need at this time (rehab for an addiction to the safety of routine).
Challenges make for good stories. Hence the blog. As for the "chaff" - I think, I worry, I romanticise - it's an admission upfront that there may be some crap amongst the riveting stories and pearls of wisdom. Such is the nature of blogging.
I'm 26 years old. My hometown is Sydney Australia. Prior to harvest, I've had no experience in agriculture. My background is in media and film production.
