Off to South Africa & the World Cup

me being uber-patriotic before the USA vs. Czech Republic game at the 2006 World Cup

Hi everyone,

So after an 8-month hiatus to finish my graduate studies, I'm back & ready to update you on my next adventure. I'll be heading to South Africa for 5 weeks to travel around and to be a fan at the greatest sporting event in the world...the World Cup. I'll be road-tripping around South Africa for 10 days before settling into an apartment in Johannesburg and following the United States team for 5 games.

I'll be updating this blog on what South Africa is like, along with updates on what it's like to follow the US National Team through the tourney. Please feel free to comment below and tell me what you want to hear about. In the meantime, I'll let Homer Simpson speak for me...
