Well the day has officially arrived! In just 24 hours I will be heading to the airport to depart for Italy! I definitely thought I would be a lot more nervous than I am, but I think my excitement has hidden most of my nerves. This is my first time flying alone, my first time leaving the US, and of course lots of other firsts will come along with this trip. I have received my address, roommates, and official classes. Everything is becoming real and its just a matter of time before it all begins. I have packed, unpacked, and repacked and (fingers crossed) I have everything I need. I'll be just a short distance of 5,451 miles from home and just 7 hours ahead. I am so blessed to have so many people that have wished me good luck, sent prayers, and helped me prepare for the trip of a lifetime. For those who have asked about how to contact me, I will have my iPhone only for apps and will be able to text off Viber, FaceTime, also feel free to Facebook message me or email me! I will send as many postcards as possible to anyone who wants to give me their address! Hopefully my next post will be from my apartment in Florence, or from a small coffee shop down the road from my new home! In my head I have created a picturesque town with people from all over the world, mouth watering food, views like I have never seen before, quaint shops, and much more. Only a few more hours and I will finally be experiencing this all for myself!
Always,
Sam
