Excitement, nervousness, and fatigue

Tomorrow I leave for the biggest trip of my life. Even though I’ve been planning for this trip for years, it truly snuck up on me! It seems that yesterday I was sending in the application and tomorrow I’m leaving!

Right now, I’m honestly too tired to tell an amusing anecdote, things have been so very hectic and tiresome. Just understand that there were numerous moments of “oops, I almost forgot that” and “that wasn’t supposed to happen,” as well as moments of “wow, that worked out perfect” and “other person ‘did you bring blahblahblah?’ with my happy reply of ‘already packed!’” Packing up one’s life in three bags is serious business! The fact that Christine, the other half of my brain, is packing for the same thing truly comes in handy; especially since she spent a month last summer in Europe for research, so she’s done this before.

Anyways, my bags are finally packed, my travel plans are finally ready, and, France, watch out because here I come! 

P.S. Thanks for bearing with these boring I'm-not-even-in-France-yet-blogs :) Seeing as I'm leaving tomorrow, things will definitely get more interesting!

  1. Oh gosh, I can relate to the whole packing things into only three bags...except I get 2 bags for six weeks. Blah! You're going to have the time of your life. I will try and get online to keep up with you :) Safe travels!!!
