The Countdown Begins...

This time, in exactly one week, I will be onboard a Qantas aeroplane, just hours from landing in Beijing, China.

I, along with 299 other university students from around the world, have been recruited by BOCOG (the Beijing Olympic Committee) to work as a Flash Quote Reporter (FQR) for the Olympic News Service (ONS).

I'm half-packed, nearly finished all my vaccinations and so very keen to go explore another country again!

From what we've been told so far, and it isn't a whole lot, we're going to be working pretty much 24/7 when the Games are on.

We'll be placed on a sport for its duration (my fingers and toes are crossed for the swimming!) and we'll get to wear an incredibly attractive outfit...

I'll be in the blue.

Yep, the one with the bucket hat, yellow bumbag & zip-off elastic-waist cargo pants.

Ooooh yeeeeaah.

Sexytime.

I'm going to try to keep this blog as updated as possible with all the latest from my Asian adventure.

Most of my (probably hilarious) photos will go on my facebook but some notables might get a look-in on here.

Peace out xo
