Here We Go Again

I'd like to start by saying that I'm really going to try this time! I will try to blog frequently to share my travels with friends and family, but also to be able to look back at all the amazing opportunities I've had. I guess it all starts here.

This summer is a whole new adventure for me! Where am I going you may ask. Asia! Yes, a very large place so let's narrow it down. Singapore, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia. 

All of this is very new for me, and I'm nervous and excited all at once! I realized as I was getting ready for this trip I got very different comments than any of my others. Such as: "be careful," and "wow, you're brave," and "make good choices!" I guess I will do my best. 

Each time I take a trip people ask, "who are you going with?" My response is typically, Fulbrighters. This program changed my life in so many ways. One of the best of which, my travel buddies. On this trip I'm incredibly lucky to be going with Rebecca, my travel partner extraordinaire! Through many adventures we have learned the art of dealing with each other for extended periods of time. Good thing too since this journey is 45 days of fun! 

 

At this point I'm just excited to get there and start experiencing as much as we can. 

Just a quick 16 hour flight from California and we will be there. Good thing I have an amazing pillow! 

So for now I need to sleep to prepare for a long two days. Hopefully more posts will come soon with beautiful pictures!
