Eight Days Until I Depart!!

(This is a picture from my Bon Voyage party. My close friend Jordan,on the left, is also doing Rotary and will be staying in Germany next year.)


Just over a week and I will be in Belgium! There is still so much to do! saying goodbye to all my friends and family is just around the corner and I know that that is going to probably the most difficult part of my adventure to date, but I know I am ready! Right now I am trying to figure out how to set up absentee voting because I want to stay politically on top of things in America. I am also realizing that I have over-packed! How do people expect an 18 year old girl to pack for a year?? They've got to be nuts! More to come soon, the adventure is just beginning!
