hat-trick of my life !
Wow what a week it’s been....
Last Saturday I got the news that I had been accepted onto the guiding course (mentioned on post below). Of course I was ecstatic about it, but in a sense I didn’t feel I could celebrate because I had a few obstacles in my way, notably the fact that I didn’t have a driving license.
You see, going back to Svalbard without a driving license is a bit annoying - more so when you are on a guiding course. This means you are not allowed to drive snow mobiles for going out on excursions. But this morning, I retook my driving test for the third time (after a two year hiatus) and passed. I had been such a nervous wreck this past week, but to me this was the most important exam ever and now I feel incredibly overjoyed to have passed.
Throw into the mix that I have also just passed all my university exams (which was a requirement to be fully accepted onto the guiding course) means I can now breathe… at least for a short while as I start a summer job this coming Monday.
The next thing I must worry about is how to get my endless hoard of kit and junk up to Svalbard by August …
