Two Days Until the Adventure Begins!

I can't believe that I leave on Tuesday! Spain has always been this vague journey in the distant future, but in only two days I'll be flying over the Atlantic Ocean. I'm almost finished packing but I don't know if I'll ever feel totally ready for this... my life will be changing so much so soon! I'll be living with a family I've never met before, eating Spanish cuisine, studying at a school that doesn't speak my native language, leaving all of my friends and family, and essentially starting over ... I'm looking forward to it though (in spite of being scared out of my mind) and am sure that once I'm there, it will be amazing. It will show me that I can create a life for myself no matter where I am in the world and in life. It will be a chance for me to grow as a person and to learn about the world around me, to learn about other (real) lifestyles and cultures, to expand my horizons. I'm excited to meet all of the people who will soon be a big part of my life and to make many friends from all over the world. And, I will be back. Four months seems like an eternity, but is nothing at the same time.

So Spain, here I come!!!
