T-3 days til takeoff

I am very excited to spend spring semester studying abroad. The program that I have choose is called the ITC- International Traveling Classroom. For this semester I will travel with my classmates around Europe seeing Edinburgh, London, Paris, Amsterdam, Freiburg, Verona, and Vienna. The reality that I leave in a few short days is slowly setting in and I am getting more and more excited and anxious. Saying see you soon to my family, friends, and all of my daycare kids and families is hard but I know I will see them soon. Packing up all my stuff into one backpack that weighs all of 30 pounds is another thing that puts into perspective exactly what to expect for the next few months. I am very excited to take this adventure. I will try to post as much as possible granted I have wifi. 

As our group leader Leah told us. "When is the last time that you did something new for the first time? Now get ready cause that is your new reality and your doing it everyday!"
