I am currently sitting in the airport (JFK) awaiting for the call to board my plane. I am overly excited and incredibaly grateful. Saying goodbye to my family was hard, but I am used to being away from home, and I know that they are proud of me!
7:26 Pm
It is 1:26 am tomorrow in Rome and I am currently soaring over the Atlantic Ocean. ~Chasing the sun~ OR runnning from it? I don't know how that works. I started reading Eat Pray Love and I LOVE it. It reinforces my desire to travel, to experience, to live, to explore. I want to see the world, I want to understand the world, I want to understand how people live in the world. As I embark on this journey to a foreign country with little knowldge of the tradition, culture, or language I am overly excited but slightly terrified.
*It is currently 70 degrees in Rome and my ETA is 9:25 AM Rome time!*
