My Group

Before coming on this trip I knew two things about my group:

  1. I was the fifth person from NYC to sign up for the trip

  2. There were only seven people going on the trip (excluding the guide)

 

Turns out there are actually eight people in our group.  None of us was more surprised to learn of the new member than his roommate who woke up in the middle of the night to discover him sleeping in the other bed in the room.

 

Our group is made up of two doctors, two finance people, a guy who designs micro chips, a physicist, a natural food chef\instructor and me.  The two finance people are from NYC and they are a couple (she just found out that she is pregnant the day before the trip).  One doctor (the internist) is married to the chef and although they currently live in NYC they are moving out of state next year for his job.  The other doctor (the family doctor) is from Boston and is my roommate. The physicist is from DC and his roomate is the electrical engineer who is from Atlanta (and they are the only two people on our trip who have every taking a group trip before).

 

 

Needlessto say, our conversation is diverse.
