Welcome!

Bună! I'm a Anthropology major/Biology minor from EWU.  In less than a month, I will be off to Romania in search of bones and immortality!

A classmate and I will be attending an osteology workshop called the Bioarchaeology of Children in Odorheiu Secuiesc (odor heh joo se kyoo jesk), Central Transylvania. (Cue the vampire jokes.)

Bioarchaeology of Children Workshop


Getting ready to go:

Passport (with unflattering photo) procured. Actually, they print security stuff over the top of it so it isn't so bad. 

Vaccinations...DtaP, polio and typhoid done. Boy are my arms sore!  I waited too long to get the rabies series.  (Cue the werewolf jokes.)  

Plane ticket purchased after minor asininity. Itinerary July 2nd: Spokane to Minneapolis to Paris to Budapest then Overnight train to Romania and bus to village. August 6th: Bus, Overnight train, Paris, Seattle, Spokane. So many takeoffs and landings. 

A happy note...on the way back, I plan to be immortal, so if we crash, I'm all good. 

Anyway, I will be keeping track of my journey here including as many photos as I can . 

19 days and counting!
