Hey there! I've actually posted here before, but never actually introduced myself.

So I'm Dana, 24, from Canada... currently living and working in London England. I'm trying to save some money (ha.. in London? Riiiight), and will be backpacking around Europe in 2006.

Oh wow.. you guys are all so friendly! Todah Rabah (Thank you in Hebrew)!

Right, so England is cool so far. The woman I work for is a bit off the wall sometimes... she kept correcting my pronounciation of Bath, even though I couldn't hear the difference between her version and mine. Ah well, she also gives me every other weekend off. So far I've seen Wales, Paris, Bath, Stonehenge, and am doing Dublin this coming week. So I really don't have too much to complain about.

I'll post photos as soon as I figure out where the heck my downloadie wire has gone.. for the time being it's strictly burning stright to CD and mailing home for safekeeping.

xx
