Hey everyone!
Welcome to my blog! (Currently "A Semester in Seville" but that could certainly change...suggestions?) I hope this blog will help me keep anyone who's interested up-to-date on my travels. I promise to try to keep things short and post lots of pictures! Please do comment as much as you want--I'd love to hear from all of you.
Now...packing...After a long and stressful Saturday trying to beat Irene to Boston, I pretty much accomplished nothing on Sunday. Not even laundry. Thus I have packed absolutely nothing as of right now. Count-down, you ask? Roughly 48 hours before I need to leave for Logan! I have a pretty stellar packing list, so I'm not too worried.
On Wednesday, I'll be flying Logan --> JFK, JFK --> Madrid, Madrid --> Sevilla. I'll be traveling with the group from JFK onwards, and that's when I'll find out who my host family is, whether or not I have a roommate, and how I can book my return ticket for December. Yup, you heard me, I know none of this. Strangely, I think it's better this way. I can't obsess over anything because I don't know anything!
'Til Sevilla, PEACE.
