I leave in just a few days (Tuesday to be exact), and will be busy packing until then I'm sure. I'm excited to get going; I'm sure it will be an adventure. At least last time I traveled to a different continent I spoke the language over there; I know just a few phrases of Chinese (and I'm sure I'll be butchering the pronunciation).
Either way, I'm looking forward to my time over there visiting the Gronseths and the Bankers and getting to experience a new culture (not quite as excited for the hours in planes). Next time I post I should be on the other side of the world!
