13

aahhh!!! today's the day. the long awaited day when i LEAVE FOR SPAIN!!!!! this will mark my 13th hop across the puddle we call the atlantic ocean, but i am still nervous like always. i officially get to sevilla tomorrow (the 26th), but the program i'm there for doesn't start until the 27th, so i have one night in the city... alone... surrounded by a dialect i'm not used to... alone... being jet lagged... alone... where the schedule the locals follow is completely different than here... oh, and did i mention alone?? this prospect became much less daunting when i found a hostel with single non-smoking rooms, but it's still a bit frightening. i have both traveled overseas before and traveled alone before, but never overseas alone before. kinda feels like a big step.

just a few last minute things to pack (like my computer, haha), and then i'm outta here! enjoy your may/june state side!

Awww sweetie it's okay to be scared! I feel like once you get through the airport (customs, baggage claim, etc.) you'll be good to go. Can't wait to start hearing about your travels :)

I think it's actually your 11th trip across the pond - but who's counting??
