the bishkek adventure


although "our story" as a couple originated in 2006... the bishkek adventure officially began in july of 2008 when jennifer and i accepted teaching positions at an international school in bishkek, kyrygzstan. we started this blog with the hope that it would be an entertaining and accurate catalog of our years living abroad. although we are back in the states now after two years in central asia and our life is not nearly as exotic or exciting... we are keeping the blog going writing for our friends, families and for our first born child, olivia (olive) annmarie conover, who blessed us with her arrival on monday, august 24 at 2:15pm.

planning

there are lists, and lists, and lists of things to do before we go.

i am the list maker in the duo.

1.get married
2.pack our stuff
3.get on the plane

sounds so easy, but there's so much to each step.

- jennifer

addendum - here is a packing list we received from the wife of the former director of bsi. just a bit intimidating!

    You really are making way to much about this. I would think that two educated individuals like yourself should be able to knock these items out in no time. I have included a manual for your assistance.

    1
    a. Get license
    b. Say "I do"
    c. Get drunk

    2
    a. Find the oldest luggage
    b. Pack the shit out of it
    c. Store the rest at parents

    3
    a. "Will you give us a ride?"
    b. "Do you have the tickets?"
    c. "Champagne please, we are on
    our honeymoon!"

    Done, send us a postcard.
