Bad news, everyone!

Well bad for the guild, not so much for me.

I applied for a work exchange program months ago and was wait listed. Well someone had to drop out yesterday so I moved up into the accepted group and found out today that I'm going to Iceland for 3 weeks in July to work in Vatnajökull National Park while an Icelandic counterpart will be taking over my job here. I fly out on the 12th and with me having to work this weekend it means my last raid will be next weekend (July 6-7).

Crappy that it's such short notice but this is a pretty big opportunity for me that I can't pass up. This means job security which is super important given the Harper government's desire to sell off all of our parks.

Oh shit brother that is awesome. Iceland is a great place. /hug /cry

Wow man! That is a huge opportunity for you and will be a great experience. For sure it sucks huge for us but life >
wow

I got so much shit to do before I leave. So much stuff to set up here for the exchange dude, need to buy some new gear, probably should buy a camera so I don't have to take pictures using my crappy cell phone, and of course tons of paperwork.

I've always wanted to go to Iceland too so this is pretty sweet. Especially since the plane tickets and accommodations are free.
