Well, the time has come.

I'm about 4 hours from the start of my adventure! I WILL NOT have my phone. So texting and calling me is pointless. HOWEVER if you want to know how I'm doing, I'll be updating my blog about two weeks into my trip (that is the first time I'll have internet access). Thank you all for your support and love! LOVE YOU ALL:)

I'm finally done packing! That was thrilling. Haha. Every time I thought I had everything, there would be just one more thing and I would have to go back to the store! But, it is all worth it--no matter how many times I was grumbling about it as it happened.


There is so much I should say right now, but I am speechless. I'm sure words will spill when it is all over and done. That is when I'll have something worth saying. Until then, I only wish for the most open mind while I take the first steps in this life-changing experience.
