Leaving on a Jetplane

Wow. I'm about to leave for Cape Town. Today I felt like how I used to feel in school the day before a big exam. That's really what it comes down to. I am setting myself up for the biggest test I've ever taken. This very moment I'm a mixture of excitement, fear, longing and uncertainty all rolled into one. However, I think the biggest jolt of emotions is bound to hit me somewhere over the Atlantic.

But I am grateful to know so many wonderful people who have encouraged or supported me in pursuing my endeavor. And yes, I am even thankful to have lots of people who worry about me. It was very hard saying goodbye so many times. I am going to miss you all terribly and I promise to send postcards.

I'm off to see the world!
